Important Reminder – Athlete Drop-Off & Lobby Expectations
Hey everyone!
We wanted to send out a quick reminder regarding drop-off times and expectations in our lobby.
We have noticed that some athletes are being dropped off 45 minutes or even more before their scheduled class begins. Unfortunately, this is something we cannot accommodate.
Athletes should remain in their parent’s vehicle until NO MORE THAN 10 MINUTES before their scheduled class time. Our lobby is not a waiting area or a playground, and our coaches and staff are not available to supervise children who arrive early. Our responsibility is to coach the athletes during their scheduled class time, not to provide supervision before class begins.
For our older athletes who are able to wait in the lobby independently, we also expect respectful behavior. This means:
* Sitting appropriately and keeping conversations at a reasonable volume.
* No running, playing, or horseplay in the lobby.
* Being respectful of other families, staff, and athletes.
* Remembering that the lobby is a shared space, not a place to hang out and disrupt others.
We absolutely love having everyone at the gym, and we want it to be a welcoming environment for all of our families. However, we need everyone’s cooperation to make that happen.
Moving forward, please do not drop athletes off earlier than 10 minutes before their scheduled class. If an athlete arrives earlier, we will be asking them to remain with their parent until it is time to enter.
Thank you for understanding and helping us maintain a safe, respectful, and positive environment for everyone!
