I may be looking to go in a new direction this fall. I just feel like we may need something fresh & new ... and different. Any recommendations for choreographers in the Northeast?

Who is attending? I'm bringing my program (my first and the programs first National trip - very exciting!) Any advice? Suggestions?

What is everyones experience with an athlete being diagnosed with Mono? How long were they out for? Here is my situation.... I have a competition team of 16, with 3 pretty solid stunt groups (ideally they would like to see 4 with 16...). I was just informed one of my flyers has Mono. I...

Hi All, If you have a Booster Club for your program I have a few questions I'm curious about: 1) Do the Boosters support all teams (Freshman,JV,Varsity) 2) If you had a new team would boosters help them out or expect them to raise all funds first before "delving in" to the booster account, or...

Hi All! So this is my first year doing the 8 count sheet for our music (usually the choreographer has done it for us, but with his increased/busy schedule this year he is not including it). Before I go ask him what he usually uses I thought I would as here first! It's 2:30 of music, any help...

This season I really want to focus on taking my teams stunting ability to the next level. They have the basics down, as well as express ups, tick tocks & full up (two legged, cross leg load in way) This season I want to have them work on: 180 tick up (possibly 360 if they can get the 180) Full...

SO.... The gym I coach at is looking to field an i5 team next season possibly. I believe I have the skills/ability to be on the team minus tumbling (I had jumps to BHS & ROBHS in 2010, lol not sure what I have now). BUT - I haven't physically cheered in 5 years (just an occasional jump/stunt...

Hi All, I know how the fierce board feels about "GoFundMe" accounts, but this one is legit. Here's the story Riley is a little girl from my hometown, and the HS I formerly coached at has been really involved with her "Riley Rocks Challenge" and just with the girls life in general, the cause is...

So as some of you may know, I'm coaching at a new HS this year. The girls have been great and have so much potential, but I'm having a hard time getting them to believe in themselves, and the coaches. They lost their old coach for reasons Im not aware of, I'm a new coach in a group of girls and...

Some MA routines for this fall season!

Wondering if anyone else found their first year of coaching extremely difficult? I was a an assistant to varsity, than JV coach, and finally bumped up to head coach this past season. My experiences as an assistant to varsity, and head coach on JV were fine, but this past season has been really...

Okay, so I am the former JV coach, now I am going to be the Varsity coach for the winter season. We have decided to have two separate bank accounts for each season (I think this is the smart way to keep things organized). The problem is, this is the first time we are doing this, so starting this...

Was just looking at some videos of Georgia High School cheer from this season, all the teams are talented as always, but one thing stood out to me! John Creeks new (IMO) look! Does anyone have an upclose picture of their uniform? So strange to not see them in their buns and socks (I know they...

I need some help with a pyramid for my routine this year. I had an idea in my head - but then a few girls quit and we have less girls, so I am sort of stuck trying to think of a nice, good scoring, pyramid. Here are the details: JV Team (not very important, but just so you know) MA team 13...

Anyone around here from MA? What are your thoughts for States this Sunday! I feel as though all Divisions have tough competition. D1 is really up in the air for me! It could go to anyone; Billerica, Hill, Revere, Marshfield! D2 should honestly go to Dracut, they scored the highest in the state...

Okay, so I'm looking to get/make my girls a little something special for their first competition. They have had a tough season with the flu going around, girls quitting and not having the ideal practice conditions. Their first competition is on Saturday. I would like to keep the budget under...

So, I'm in the process of choreographing my teams routine. Everything is going smoothly except for the inversions. I'm sort of stuck with these. Does anyone have any examples of inversions(videos appreciated) or any help with inversions?

Okay, so this will be my second season coaching the JV team in my city. Last year went well, the girls adjusted to cheerleading, I adjusted to being a head coach of a team and overall we had a great season. However, this year the girls will be returning with more experience and I want to make...
