Hi Team Wildcard Families!

Just a quick reminder to help keep everyone on track for a successful season:

📍 Attendance
All Team Kids athletes are expected to attend practice on their scheduled days. If your athlete will be absent, please communicate directly with Coach Amy via:

• Text: 414-303-5195
• Email: amyg@wildcardgymnastics.com

📅 Practice Schedule
You can always find the most current summer practice schedule on our blog:
👉 Click here for the schedule

💪 Why It Matters
These practices are essential to ensure your athlete is properly prepared for the upcoming USAG competition season.

• Levels 3 and under: should attend at least 3 days per week
• Levels 4 and up: must attend a minimum of 4 days per week

📌 Can’t Make It Regularly?
If your athlete is unable to attend the required practices, we strongly encourage scheduling private lessons.

Now is a great time to book! Both Coach Amy and Coach Stephanie are on summer break from school, so their availability is more flexible.

Please ask the front desk for a Private Lesson Sheet, which includes a list of coaches and their contact info.

Let’s stay committed and strong going into the season! 💫

We welcome you to this year’s Independence Day Parade. The parade will be held on Friday, July 4, 10:00 a.m. 

« ENTRANCE WILL ONLY BE ALLOWED FROM GEBHARDT ROAD!  For participant drop-offs, enter the EAST drive to Brookfield Central on Gebhardt Rd. and utilize the driveway in front of the school (see enclosed map – staff will be on site to direct you). Please drive slowly for everyone’s safety! Those dropping off participants must then EXIT the high school by traveling NORTH to North Avenue, or PARK behind City Hall OR in the overflow parking area north of the Safety Building (see map).

« Please report to your designated area between 9:00 – 9:15 a.m. to confirm your placement.

« Your unit will line up with the     30   GREEN    group. Refer to the attached Staging Area map.

We encourage your group to carpool. Due to safety concerns and traffic flow issues, we encourage participants to utilize the DROP-OFF AREA in the front (south) drive of the high school.  PLEASE PROVIDE AN ESCORT FOR YOUNGER CHILDREN to take them to their line-up area.  You will NOT be allowed to drop off participants in the line-up area in the school’s back (north) parking lot.Otherwise, we ask that you park your car elsewhere and then escort your participant to their designated line-up area.

The parade will begin at Brookfield Central High School located at 169th and Gebhardt Rd., travel west on Gebhardt Rd. to Calhoun Rd., then north on Calhoun to North Ave., and west on North Ave. to Norhardt, south on Norhardt –  approximately 1.25 miles.  We usually meet up kitty corner from the frozen yogurt place. Pick your gymnast up on Norhardt.

Gymnasts – please freeze a squeezable water bottle half full and fill up the remainder with water in the morning.  Don’t forget to wear sunscreen!!  And deck yourselves out in patriotic head wear! Wear your Wildcard exhibition leotard. Boys – please wear you Wildcard shirts with black shorts. Don’t forget tennis shoes and socks AND your gloves for tumbling (those little stretchy magic gloves). You can order some from Amazon!

NO practice July 4th!! Have a great weekend!! NO Goldbugs on Saturday, July 5th!

Please note this change in schedule-

Due to unforeseen circumstances, post-practice workouts will begin NEXT WEEK, June 30.

Thank you for understanding!

Back by popular demand!

Coach Emily’s post-practice conditioning sessions will be taking place Mondays after Girls’ Team Practice (7:30-8:30pm). These are a la carte ($5 each) and are open to ANYONE. This means: girls’ team, boys’ team, parents, rec, WHOMEVER.

Please try to let us know by 5pm Mondays who to expect for that night’s session. The best way to do this is by email (gymnastics@wildcard-gymnastics.com) or in person.

Can you believe we are already to that time of year that we start working on routines for Fall?! While all the coaches and girls are working on their skills, behind the scenes admin is beginning to get the club (and each individual athlete) registered for the Fall meet season!

What does this mean for you? You get a list of the weekends to set aside for meets as well as meet fees coming due. Once again we will be splitting them into four separate payments of $250 each. These will be due June 16, July 15, August 15, and September 15. These fees to do include the $200 charge for USAG State, should your athlete qualify. That fee will be due November 15. (New level 2s will be charged July, August, September, October for the 4 payments, State will remain Nov.)

Below is the meet schedule we are hoping for (will know for sure after August 1 when we are allowed to register):

September 13-14 Judges’ Meet (@ Scamps in Kenosha)

September 27-28 Racine Gymnastics Center (Racine)

October 4-5 Infinite (Brown Deer)

October 11-12 Precision (Oshkosh)

November 1-2 Capital (Verona)

November 8-9 WCGC (Elkhorn)

November 22-23 USAG State (@ AP Sports Complex, hosted by LaFleurs)

Finally, in order to register the girls for meets, they need to have current USAG Membership. I will be sending these out TODAY. Please note: the email will come from USAG. New members are $25 for their first year. Renewing members are $73. The sooner you have this completed, the better. Please remember to enter YOUR ATHLETE’S INFO, not your own.

Please Note that we WILL be having TEAM practice June 16th, 17th, & 18th. We will NOT have team practice June 19th or 20th.
