2021 COACHES CONFERENCE

The IASP Department of Student Programs is dedicated to helping Indiana cheerleading coaches keep updated on the current rules. Rules Interpretation Meetings are required each year for coaches who plan to participate in Indiana Cheer Championship competitions, and are encouraged for ALL coaches as a way to help keep students safe.

July 16, 2022 – Virtual – Register Now!
(registration is still open if you would like to receive the conference recording and materials)

NFHS SPIRIT RULES UPDATE SESSIONS

In 2021, we discontinued the live webinar meetings that provided rules updates to coaches. Instead, we are now providing the recording from the conference in this space for coaches to reference as they need to. Teams competing in the 2022 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.
