This happened to us twice. My daughter was also in a very competitive cheerleading team. It happened when she went into Varsity Elementary (7th/8th/ grade) and again when she made and joined her Varsity High School cheerleading team.
Even though she had been cheering since kindergarten and we knew of summer camps as they got older - there was no way of knowing when they would go any given summer. We had two big vacations booked two years before each one - well at least one was big - our 11 N. Med. cruise. The other one was also a vacation we had booked with two other families. Both coaches understood and were okay with it - we knew for high school not to plan anymore during the August month.
