    All-Star How Is A 12 Y/o On Wildcats?

    I think we have a sport that is a team event. You need to develop peer relationships and each athlete do their part. Can a young child do that on an open team ? They may have the skill but their life path and brain development and general hormonal body development has not provided them what...

    Is This A Polite Way For The Gym To Say We Are Unwanted?

    I think you had specific requests on teams. Their need and your daughter's requests did not match up in the make up of a team. They offered her a level 6 non tumble World's team but when that did not work presented another option. She may like tumbling the best but she may not have been a best...

    OT I’m Sorry This Is A Downer

    As someone who has been there (my mom was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and died 2 months later). Be there.... spend time with her. Just love her. You just face every day, sometimes hour - moment as it comes. Once my mom passed for a while it was just breathing (except I had young children who...

    All-Star Best Themes You've Ever Seen

    Generally not a fan. BUT I really did like f5 baseball last year. There are few routines I don't get tired of (including my own children's routines but then at least I have some adrenaline because I want them to do well). The baseball routine I likes because each time I was looking at it and...

    All-Star Can We Stop Yelling At Each Other?

    I understand you are new and you feel you have found a safe place. Any place can get nasty especially where you are basically anonymous .There are trolls everywhere who live for the drama. There are also passionate people with very definite views. This athlete in question in particular brings a...

    All-Star New Gyms, Gym Closings, And Acquisitions For 19-20 Season

    There are 4 new locations actually: they are taking over 3 gyms but one has two locations. Maryland Force in Gaithersburg, Nort'Eastern Storm in Salisbury, and BGC in Fallston and Whiteford - all Maryland locations. They also have their main location in Hanover and their Virginia location in...

    All-Star Summit Experience?

    I feel like if you and other major gyms took a stand and told your parents up front they deserve better and until this is better you are no longer attending it would have an effect. It is hard taking a stand - but your name and gym mean something in this industry. I get some parents may leave...

    All-Star Summit Experience?

    If your at the level of taking AP classes then I’m sure you already have the choice of most universities so enjoy the experiences you can have while you can still have them because one day your 22 sitting on fierceboard wishing you could get it all back! I understand your points completely -...

    All-Star Summit Experience?

    I think Varsity forgets our athletes are children with school requirements and this is a busy season. I get the End of Season point but still many of our kids have missed days throughout the year for cheer... there has to be a better way.

    New Air Track Company Looking For Some Opinions

    I think for home purchase no difference. Many cheerleaders (including my own) have various size air tracks for the home. Our gym has a long air track no different than what a cheer gym has.

    All-Star No Competition At Competitions?

    My kiddo had a comp recently and their team did not do well. Compared to how they had been competing it was just a fair performance. Other comps they rocked it and came in second by the narrowest margin... and if scoring had been 50/50 versus rotating 75 results would have been different - and...

    Changing Gyms

    I will say here are some drawbacks to a bigger gym. At some you are a number a commodity. Also be aware if you are on a 2 at your gym now but just working on hand springs how your gym places could be part of the issue. Do not be surprised at big gym you are brought down to a level one until you...

    OT Poms The Movie

    I think it is cute... but I'm a little worried it will take the "mean girl" cheerleader stereotype regarding the teen teams based on the trailer. I get that it is supposed to be humor and love that it is focusing on older ladies going strong. I'm just one who didn't like the bad mom movies...

    All-Star Soh Scoring? Floating? Anyone Know?

    This was the first time I had been checked for my bracelet for awards... ever (including previous SOH). I had it on still but 6 pm awards seemed like a crazy time to check for bracelets.

    All-Star Results

    There needs to be a separate parent organization. Some gyms are joining together regard to this. We parents are allowing our power (the power of the purse to drain away). Our voice needs to be organized and heard. Stay to play used to provide decent discounts not seeing that so much anymore and...

    All-Star Interesting....where Can This Lead To??

    Compared to some places that traffic down there is nothing. But with all this building it will get worse. I always laugh at my dad when we go down and he complains about the traffic there (he lived up in our area for over 20 years). We live up in the DC area. The Beltway and and 95 have been...

    All-Star Interesting....where Can This Lead To??

    I think I read though that they sold their ownership of it (Celebration). They did start another community Golden Oaks but it does not have the retail portion like celebration and is definitely a high price point. It could be that they plan to try another community similar to Celebration but...

    All-Star New Uniforms 2018-2019

    I really like this. Crops have never been my favorite thing but this looks good and it looks like someone thought about how these girls are athletes. Actually I feel like all the CA ones are like except for the one from Varsity that they won... that one just doesn't work for me.
