2022 Information coming soon!
At Varsity Spirit, the health and safety of our athletes, coaches, employees, families and friends remains our top priority. We have been closely monitoring official information from health authorities, the local Charlotte, North Carolina government and the Charlotte Convention Center, and it has become clear that hosting this event in this venue will not be ideal, or perhaps even possible. Given this information, we have decided to relocate the Spirit of Hope event to Atlanta, Georgia. The event will now be taking place over the same dates (January 16-17, 2021) at the Georgia International Convention Center.

2020-2021 Media Policy – No commercial recording (audio or visual) or commercial live streaming is allowed in the event venue or other event-related venues (including, but not limited to, hotels, and restaurants) or on the grounds of any such venues (collectively, “Event Locations”). In the event a team authorizes the commercial recording or streaming in any Event Location, the team will be automatically disqualified. In addition, the personal, non-commercial use of live streaming apps (such as Periscope, FacebookLive, etc.) to capure all or any part of a performance during the event is not permitted. By attending/purchasing admission to the event, each attendee grants permission to Varsity Spirit, LLC and its affiliates, designees, agents, licensees, and invitees to use the image, likeness, actions and statements of the attendee in any live or recorded ausio, video, film, or photographic desplay or other transmission, exhibition, publication, or reproduction made of, or at, the event in any medium whether now known or hereafter created, or context for any purpose including commercial or promotional purposes without further authorization or compensation.
Varsity All Star will ultimately decide if there is enough evidence available to support the disqualification and will make a final decision on the status of that program / team. In the spirit of protecting our athletes, we hope you understand this year’s no tolerance policy.
