NO REFUNDS FOR NO-SHOWS AT COMPETITION . Requests for refunds must be
made in writing prior to October 18. All teams and individual competitors
must have a signed waiver form in order to compete. No exceptions. You
must be a member of the squad/team the entire season to be eligible to
compete with the squad/team. Coaches must bring signed forms to
registration. SPECTATOR FEE: All spectators will need a ticket to enter the
fairgrounds. Competition fees include fair admittance for squad members and
2 coaches/advisors. Advance tickets may be purchased for $6.00 through the
NPF office. Regular admission is $7.00 and may be paid at the South Gate
on the day of the event. Coaches should register upon arrival and receive
scheduled warm-up and performance times. Teams will be allowed 4 minutes
warm-up prior to competing. An 18’x24’ warm-up area is provided. Please
have your squad “on deck” and ready at the warm-up area 10 minutes prior to
your scheduled time. COMPETITION FLOOR: The competition will be held in the
Ameris Arena at the South Gate of the National Peanut Festival
fairgrounds. The competition floor area is 42’x42’ matted area with
approximately 18 feet overhead clearance at the outer edges of the pavilion
and extending to 53 feet high in the center. MUSIC: Music is allowed for
the entire routine or for only a portion of the routine. There will be a 10
points deduction for exceeding the time limit of 2 ½ minutes for squad
performances and 1-½ minutes for individual competitions. Timing begins
with the first word, movement or music. You may bring CD or cassette.
Please bring an extra copy. Some burnt CDs do not play, so come prepared.
Each squad will need a sponsor/advisor to start/stop their music. It is
solely the coach’s decision to stop the music due to technical difficulties
or injury. If this occurs, the routine will be judged up to the point the
coach stopped the routine. The team will be rescheduled to perform within
10 minutes. During the second performance, the squad will “walk-through”
(no stunts, tumbling, etc.) to the point the coach stopped the routine and
perform from that point on and judging will resume at that point. If the
coach chooses NOT to stop the routine, the team will not have the option to
perform again. Music must be appropriate for all ages since this is a
family event. There shall be no vulgar words or movements. ROUTINES:
Routines should include any combination of jumps, tumbling, cheer, dance and
pyramids. Music is allowed for the entire routine or for only a portion of
the routine. Squad routines should not exceed 2 ½ minutes. Individual
routines should not exceed 1-½ minutes. AWARDS: Trophies will be awarded
for all divisions. Number of trophies presented depends on number of squads
entered. ALL JUDGES DECISIONS ARE FINAL. A panel of qualified judges will
determine winners. Competition rules will be according to the National
Federation of State high School Associations. You may call 1-800-776-3462
or 816-464-5400 to obtain their rules. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Place trophies
