This organization is open to both male and female ages 8-18. The program is designed to meet
the needs of all participants regardless of their performance level. The individual who makes the
attempt is as much a part of the group as he or she who may attain the highest level of
achievement. No one rides the bench; however maximum effort and hard work will be
expected at all times. We can say MAXIM
UM EFFORT- looks like readiness, respect, unity,
and team support. We define TEAM SUPPORT and UNITY as - All athletes, parents,
and coaching staff supporting and cheering on all athletes.
We require all athletes to stay for the entire track meet. TRAINING PROGRAM:
Practice sessions are conducted by the coaching staff at various locations. All athletes are
required to attend their scheduled training activities. Due to the various work schedules of the
coaching staff, all practice time will need to be maximized to the fullest. (No horse playing and
attitudes will be tolerated)

The following registration forms must be completed by a parent or a guardian of each athlete and returned to a member of the All-Stars staff. Please include a copy of the athlete’s birth certificate. Proof of medical insurance is also required. REGISTRATION FEE:
A registration fee of $500.00 per season is required for each athlete. For families with multiple athletes, a registration fee of $500.00 will be required for each of the first two athletes. For any additional family members, the fee will be $300.00 per athletes. The club fee will cover Clarksville All-Stars and AAU registration, as well as one club uniform, additional uniforms will be available at the expense of the athlete. Individual memberships are required for athletes to participate in AAU competitions. Many of the competition we attend charge entry fees. Other meet expenses may include food, travel and overnight lodging. Clarksville All-Stars host several fundraising events and conduct many efforts to raise funds. However, the proceeds from these activities fall short in meeting the needs of all expenses occurred for the athletes and the club, so any additional help is
greatly appreciated. If you are paying by check, make it payable to The Clarksville All-Stars. All
returned checks have a $30.00 return fee. No athlete will be able to compete until all
registration fees have been paid. Fees will be refundable up until May 1, 2017. At midnight
on that date there will be no refunds of any registration fees as the season begins with the
Month of May. This year will start the opportunity to pre-pay registration fees monthly,
biweekly or even weekly to prevent an athlete from being disqualified to compete due to
nonpayment. POINT OF CONTACT INFORMATION
