ESSENTIAL FOR EXISTING SQUAD FAMILIES

ESSENTIAL
FORMS.

These are the two forms SQUAD families are most likely to need. Keep them close at hand. If a Member cannot attend an event or you need a change to the standard hotel or event arrangements, use the correct form below.

EVENT NON-ATTENDANCE

I CANNOT ATTEND AN EVENT

Use this form when a SQUAD Member cannot attend an announced competition, display or SQUAD event.

The form must normally be submitted within seven calendar days of the event being announced, unless a different deadline is stated.

Recording an absence in the App or mentioning the absence in person does not replace the online form.

SUBMIT NON-ATTENDANCE →
HOTEL / EVENT CHANGES

I NEED TO CHANGE THE EVENT ARRANGEMENTS

Use this form where you need a family room, additional guests, accessibility arrangements, travel seats or another amendment to the standard event arrangements.

Requests must be submitted by the deadline stated in the Event Information. All amendments are subject to availability.

If no request is submitted, AAAsports may proceed with the standard arrangements for the event.

LIFE IN SQUAD

A PLACE TO
BE PROUD OF.

SQUAD is about much more than attending an additional Class.

It brings a higher level of training, new challenges, exciting events and the chance to be part of a team that works, develops and celebrates together.

Members build their skills, confidence, resilience and independence while representing AAAsports at competitions, displays, Training Days and other special events.

Success is not measured by medals alone. Some of the biggest achievements come from overcoming challenges, performing with confidence, supporting teammates and achieving something that once felt impossible.

YOUR 2026/27 SQUAD PLACE

SELECTED
WITH PURPOSE.

Every SQUAD placement is carefully considered.

Age, skill, readiness, attendance, attitude, work ethic, safety, team balance, routine requirements and available spaces may all be taken into account when deciding where a Member is best placed.

SEASON 01 AUG 2026 TO 31 JUL 2027

The 2026/27 SQUAD season runs for one full competitive year.

PLACEMENT

THE RIGHT PLACE FOR THE MEMBER.

The aim is to place each Member where they can train safely, progress confidently and contribute positively to the wider SQUAD.

THINGS CAN CHANGE

SQUAD IS A DEVELOPING ENVIRONMENT.

AAAsports may make reasonable changes to groups, levels, roles, routines, training times, venues or competition plans where needed for safety, development, attendance or the needs of the team.

A SQUAD PLACE DOES NOT GUARANTEE A PARTICULAR COACH, TIMETABLE, LEVEL, ROLE, ROUTINE, COMPETITION, SCORE OR RATE OF PROGRESSION. SQUAD placement is reviewed throughout the season and remains based on readiness, safety, development and the needs of the wider team.
COMPETITIVE PATHWAYS

DIFFERENT SPORTS.
ONE SQUAD.

Each discipline has its own training and competition pathway, but every SQUAD shares the same expectations of commitment, teamwork, development and pride in representing AAAsports.

Selection is only the beginning.

Keeping a SQUAD place means continuing to show the attitude, commitment and readiness expected of a SQUAD Member.

Placements are reviewed throughout the season to make sure each Member remains suitable for their SQUAD, participates safely and positively and continues to contribute to the wider team.

DAY-TO-DAY SQUAD LIFE

WHAT YOU DO
BETWEEN EVENTS MATTERS.

Competition days are only one part of SQUAD. Consistent training, preparation, conditioning, focus and the way Members respond to challenge all shape development across the season.

01 ATTENDANCE & PUNCTUALITY

BE THERE. BE READY.

Members are expected to attend every scheduled SQUAD Class unless absence is unavoidable, record absences through the Account or App as early as possible and arrive fully ready to train when the Class begins.

02 INJURIES & CONDITIONING

STAY PART OF THE TEAM.

Where it is safe and consistent with medical advice, an injured Member may still attend and complete adapted conditioning, flexibility, observation, routine learning or other suitable work.

03 PHONES & SMART DEVICES

TRAINING TIME IS FOR TRAINING.

Phones and smart devices should remain stored during Classes unless staff give permission. Members are expected to stay focused on their Coaches, teammates and training.

04 PROGRESS

MORE THAN A MEDAL.

Progress includes skill development, consistency, confidence, resilience, teamwork, leadership, independence and the ability to respond positively when things do not go to plan.

FREE TURBO CAMP.

COMPETITION EXPERIENCE

TRAIN.
PREPARE. REPRESENT.

Competitions, displays and SQUAD events are some of the most exciting parts of SQUAD life. They give Members the opportunity to represent AAAsports, perform under pressure, support their teammates and put their training into action.

The opportunities available to each Member depend on their discipline, pathway, level, readiness and the requirements of each individual event.

READY WHEN IT COUNTS.
01 LOCAL
02 REGIONAL
03 NATIONAL
04 INTERNATIONAL

Opportunities vary according to discipline, pathway, level, qualification, readiness and event availability.

IMPORTANT FOR EVERY SQUAD FAMILY

CAN'T ATTEND
AN EVENT?

Once a competition or event is announced, the Parent / Guardian must submit the Event Non-Attendance Form within seven calendar days of the announcement, unless a different deadline is stated.

RECORDING AN ABSENCE IN THE AAASPORTS APP OR MENTIONING IT IN PERSON DOES NOT REPLACE THE ONLINE FORM.

If the form is not submitted by the deadline, the Member will be treated as available and committed to the event. AAAsports may then enter the Member and make related travel, accommodation, ticket and Official Kit bookings on their behalf.

SUBMIT EVENT NON-ATTENDANCE →

Long hair must be secured, jewellery and wearable devices must be managed in line with AAAsports requirements, and Members may be asked to wear full or partial competition kit on selected preparation dates.
