ADMISSION OF PEP SQUAD

LHSAA POLICIES AND PRACTICES

Due to abuses of the policy of admitting pep squad members free of admission into the Superdome Classic, the following policy will apply for the 2013 LHSAA /STATE FARM PREP CLASSIC and will be strictly enforced.

To be admitted free of admission:

1.  All pep squad members must enter through the south gates on Girod Street.

2.  All members must wear an especially designed pep squad uniform that clearly identifies the individual as a member of the school’s pep squad.

3.  All members must be accompanied by a school chaperone.

4.  An LHSAA representative at the back gate will verify the count of pep squad members.

5.  Pep squad members must remain off the playing surface at all times except if performing at halftime.

6.  Any member not complying with policies #1, #2, and #3 must present a ticket upon entering.

Any violation of policies will result in the participating school being assessed the cost of participating student (general admission) for the number of pep squad members who fail to comply with policies #1 and #2. That amount in ticket admission will be deducted from the team guarantee.

Please complete the attached form in this booklet and have your pep squad chaperone present it to an LHSAA representative upon entering at the South gate.

Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciates.
