Thank y'all so much, my cp graduated 4 years ago so I am WAY out of the loop. But her flyer for 4 years on Devilrays is now on Apple and I have just been wondering how they did/were doing.
Haven't been on here in forever, but I am trying to find out what happened with Apple Rays. I can't find them on the schedule, which could easily be me being dense.
Maybe I am looking at this all wrong, but this actually made me rather sad. Those kids look so exhausted that I don't see how they can enjoy the moment as they should.
I was happily reading about Chris visiting the Stingray gym for the first time when I saw a post that Madeline had lost her hard fought battle. My sincere sympathy to her family and to her ACE family. She sounds like she was a wonderful young lady who touched so many lives.

My cp started having issues with her knees the end of her second season (her sophomore year.) The third year she only could only do a single BHS and walkovers and by her last year, walk overs only. She was on a level 3 and was the only team member with no tumbling. But, her toe touches were...
Cp's third year at NCA they were going into day 2 in first place, but there was one team we were definitely worried about. Come awards that team was called in 10th place out of 12, we were stunned. Later find out there was an error of some kind, but we know no details. When they sent out the...
I don't know what this says about me, but when I glanced at the title I thought it said Worst 2013 Spectator and I clicked on it to get the dirt on some of the tacky people (fortunately relatively rare) we have all run into at one time or another at a comp.:oops:
Our all girl small sen5 restricted small gym went against a team with 4 guys. Didn't make sense to me, so I went to the USASF division rules and it seemed that was okay. (But I readily admit that while the lower levels seemed straight forward to me, once I got to all the senior 5 divisions, I...
I just don't understand why in senior5 restricted a team can have up to 4 guys and be competing against all girl teams. It just seems like such an unfair advantage. I'm not saying anything against a team, just against the rules that make that possible. Any rationale available?
I look at cheer the same way I do any sports, athletes should be required to keep the nails SHORT and no way should artificial nails be allowed. Your point about being ripped off is valid, but I was always more concerned with the damage those nails could do to a teammate in a stunt that goes...
Sigh, reading this is making me nostalgic and kinda blue that my cp is now in college and no longer cheering. Regardless of placement, I hope when your teams or your children's teams leave the floor they feel great because they know they've done their best.
