I am convinced the key ingredient for any cheer routine is athleticism. The ability to do the routine cleanly as choreographed, do your skills effortlessly, keep your energy and walk off the mat together like you are not even tired. All other things being equal the athletic team will win virtually every time, and even with a disadvantage in some areas, the athletic team can prevail.
