NFHS SPIRIT RULES UPDATE SESSIONS
In 2021, we will be discontinuing the live webinar meetings that provide rules updates to coaches. Instead, we are providing the recording from the conference in this space for coaches to reference as they need to. Teams competing in the 2021 Indiana Cheer Championship will still need to verify that they have viewed the rules update, and this will be done through a verification form in the competition registration packet.
Video Submission Procedure
Tips for sending videos:
- Be sure to indicate point of focus (what and who).
- Reference the portion of the current NFHS Spirit Rules Book (rule number and/or page number) that has you unsure if the skill is legal.
- Be as specific as possible.
- Send videos of YOUR cheerleaders performing the skills (not of other teams) to chammer@iasp.org.
