It might make for a more well-rounded team..the US is huge and cheer is so diverse everywhere, but maybe if they implemented this, teams would succeed at whatever their level is, without trying to push in one area (tumbling or stunting) to get more points.I kind of like this, but at the same time I don't...
In my area most teams don't compete but if we would, (my team in particular) it's mixed up half level 5/4 athletes & half 2/3. Making it easy to score pretty well as a level four team/elite team, but difficult for others who may have half level 5 & half level 2 (which is common in my area). I actually enjoy seeing all levels mixed in with high school cheer competitions... But then again going with the system your school uses, it could prevent teams meant for level 2 trying level 4 skills just because all the teams they are competing against are higher skilled. Idk, I feel like it depends on the area and how progressed the teams are
