@cheerheart4life @worldsring09 @Littlestunter4848 many of these statements are not accurate.
NCATA is a VARSITY sport today. At each school with NCATA it has the support of the university administration and athletic departments to include fully funded coaching staffs, recruiting, academic benefits, SCHOLARSHIPS, athletic trainers, etc. None of the STUNT or traditional cheer programs at any other schools have that level of endorsement. Some get lots of support and recognition but it's from boosters or student organizations.
There are 6 schools on the website, but I am aware of a number more that are expected to head that way. I am not endorsing one format over the other, but please seek out the facts of each of these formats before making a decision. There are very important differences.
