Agree with the above. We teach our girls that when they cheer games they need to pretend the crowd is a group of 5 year olds. You have to do SIMPLE & EASY stuff for them to get into it. We get far more oohs and ahhs over basic stuff than we do our elite things. Our crowd doesn't understand the difficulty of full ups, switch ups, and combos through to layouts, but a show-n-go extension and series bhs down the court and you would think we're the best thing since sliced bread! I'll never forget a few years ago our competition team went out and did an awesome routine with a hard stunt sequence and then our basketball cheerleaders went out and did a front walkover onto a shoulder sit then prep and the crowd thought it was so amazing and didn't think anything about what the comp girls did.
