Gym Updates

All news isn't always good news. We are having a few issues in the gym that were discussed at practice today. The coaches want to let parents know that we are coming across some respect issues towards coaching staff and teammates during practice. We reviewed the expectations in the gym and hope that by re-itterating them we will see an increase in the respect level towards each other. Our practice policies are very important to us. The rules we have in the gym help us to create the best positive learning environment possible. Gymnasts, Coaches and Parents are expected to behave according to the YMCA Member Code of Conduct and the core values of honesty, caring, respect and responsibility during practice, at meets and everywhere within the Y. We need the support of families to help us do our job, knowing that what we do is with the best intention of the girls.

Please be aware of the fact that set up/tear down of the equipment is mandatory for all gymnasts. I know life happens and girls have to leave early. Parents, please make every effort to assist with set up/tear down so that we can have as much practice time as possible . All hands on deck is the only way to get the job done.

Discipline action will be taken if necessary. Please refer to the Monarch Handbook for a reminder of the disipline policy.

Thanks for all of your support!
Kristin, Anna, and Bekah
