West Texas Classic
Lubbock, TX | December 14th
ALL TIMES ARE TEXAS TIME
Awards & Event Etiquette
- Please stay or return for awards, even if our performance wasn’t the best. Experiencing both wins and losses helps athletes grow.
- Support at least one other Zia Cheer team while you’re at the event. A loud, positive crowd means so much to our athletes.
- All parents and family members ages 10+ must purchase a spectator ticket. Tickets are typically available online or at the door.
- Athletes must remain in full uniform for awards—this is how they enter the awards ceremony for free.
- Watch other gyms in your athlete’s division or level. Seeing how other teams perform helps athletes understand scoring, strengths, and areas for improvement.
- Celebrate every finish. Every event is a chance to learn, grow, and support each other—win or not.
Supporting Your Athlete on Competition Day
- Competition days can be emotional. Athletes may be nervous, excited, or upset—especially if something doesn’t go perfectly.
- Keep the morning stress-free. A calm, positive start helps them perform their best. Also please be sure they eat something before - nothing too heavy.
- Be encouraging and patient. If they make a mistake, they may feel disappointed. Your support matters most.
- This is our first competition. We are not expecting everything to hit 100%. The goal is progress, not perfection.
- Celebrate their effort. No matter what happens on the mat, remind them you’re proud of them.
