All-Star New Uniforms 2016-2017 Season

[catlady]

As @njallday said, no other sport could forego sports bras without backlash. But, no sport is going to require stage make up, teased hair, spray tans, and lashes either. AS can't have it both ways. Either it is going to be judged on technique and execution, without any regard to their uniform, hair and make up like any other sport. Or, it is going to be judged like dance and appearance is part of it. The "industry" actually tried to tighten up the uniform rule and gym owners, coaches, parents, and athletes went crazy, as if, a bare midriff had anything to do with a double full. These uniforms are the rebellion from that rule, they covered the belly and exposed the back. I said a few pages back that there was a struggle as to which direction AS was going, sport or entertainment. I was wrong, there is no struggle, AS is hands down entertainment, otherwise, a uniform thread would not exist.

It's going to be an entertaining day when this uniform is posted here.

It will, but sadly there are more than a few uniforms already like this so we won't know for sure which gym it is

I would guess so- we tend share pictures of our kids with one another. I would assume it would eventually be posted here (not her photo but the gym's photo) since it is a program wide new uniform.

I'm praying to every cheer god that exists that this one is bra friendly because I am in looooove <3

Love the top! Clearly grey/gunmetal is huge for uniforms this year. Seeing a lot of accents. This is the first I've seen entirely grey. I like it!

Here is a screen capture of WC Omni since the links above aren't working for me. It is going to look gorgeous and seems to have a similar feel to WC Zenith's new uni which was linked a few weeks ago . Cant wait to see it under the lights -

Wasn't there an article however long ago about Varsity and their desire to keep cheerleading from being a sport? I feel like the, "is it a sport" question seems to come more from the athletes and the parents than the establishment. I'm fine with AS Cheerleading going the entertainment direction---just make it so my kid can wear a bra when she needs it and I'll be happy.

That said, I think you speak a lot of truth in this rebellious stance gym owners are taking with the new uniform rules. Frankly, if USASF wanted to close the loopholes they could but since they aren't; and that is on them.

Love the sleeves!!!

I think I like everything but the shoulder cut outs on the bottom one...and the fact that I'm still weirdly confused by BLACKout wearing white.

 

[LittleMissA17]

Man I'm imaging my kid cheering in like 2040 or whatever and what the uniforms will look like then.....

I'm loving all the new WC uniforms but I am a little saddened by the lack of gold in them
