PROCESS
The coach and Program Owner representatives of the NACCC ( now The Connection ) developed our standard code . These are the values we collectively put forth for all members . We expect all members to adhere to the rules implemented by the USASF . We expect the USASF and its members to enforce the rules . Additionally , we expect all members of the USASF to establish business practices that are in alignment with the core ethical values The Connection has established .
Below are ethical standards many coaches , Program Owners and athletes strive to adhere to in All Star Cheer and Dance . They are not intended to be an all-encompassing solution for every situation , however when the legal system fails us , ethics stand in the gap . These are not regulations or rules . They are the ethical standards which the All Star community strives to attain .
