There are certain aspects of my cheerleading coaching career that I would change, like the failure of my first program. But at the same time, all the events have lead me to where I am, which is with a phenomenal group of athletes who love this sport as much as I do.
I would go back and learn to tumble though. That is my one big regret
Your body is thanking you right now that you didn't. Believe me. LOL
I'm enjoying this thread so thank you for starting it @Cheer Dad! It's nice to see the kids saying they'd definitely do it over again. Gives me hope that mine will feel the same way one day. (And the 2 oldest do feel that way) When we started in this sport Little Bit was very little...like still had a pacie little.....lol....Kids wanted to cheer. I googled cheer gyms in my area. I visited 2 and picked the one in my town (like I thought the rest of the world did......back then there was no driving to the best gym) My older kids put blood, sweat and tears in the early year's helping to build our program into what she get's to enjoy today. When people talk about the history of CEA it's nice to be able to think to myself "I remember that....That was a great moment" and that's what I've pretty much come down to......Some people wait a lifetime, for a moment like this.
I've also had the pleasure of watching CSP grow up. She was single when we started. I've watched her get married, have children and grow and evolve into the the person and coach she is today.
