I originally posted this in the coaches forum but thought I'd post it here too for more perspective. Your feedback is really appreciated!
I will be coaching a private school team this year and although they're considered the "Varsity" team, it's really made up of 15 girls who all tried out and...
Wow.. I don't really know anything about the inner workings of the two gyms anymore but my initial response is definitely surprise! I was an athlete who switched from GAC to CEA (a very very long time ago when they could possibly be considered rivals..) It has saddened me to watch GAC somewhat...
There's always sports management, or if you're looking for the medical side of things there's exercise science, athletic training, etc. A business degree would be useful in running your own gym. Communications is a generic degree that will be helpful in basically any profession.. Take it from...
Just searched "Senior Elite" on Twitter since the team revealings are going on right now and found... "I heard there would be no more senior elite #wow" and "A worlds without seniorelite? This can't be true!"
I wish there was an emoticon of a smiley facepalming itself..
One idea that allows 100% of the money to go towards your team/program is to host a "kids camp." We did it at my high school and it was a huge success! It was held in August for any K-5th graders in the area and whoever else they wanted to bring. I actually forgot the price but I think it was...

Happy Mothers day to all the moms out there, and to all those who serve as "stand in" moms when we need them...
I was wondering if we would get a farewell post from you... Your insight will be missed! Best of luck to Maddie next year and thank you to Cassie for the updates over the weekend! Best freshman roommate ever..
I love the concept of this but to what extent were the intentional mistakes? Would be really unfortunate to get an injury that way just days before you leave
Ohh okay. That makes more sense as far as the parenting question.. still baffled as to how anyone would do this to their teammates! So sorry! Glad you made the best of it
This will be my first year coaching and we don't have tryouts until the end of July.. I hate it! Football is in August so that's less than a month to get in shape and prepare for games... it's crazy to me. I don't know if the school system has some sort of policy against practicing before August...
1. I am so sorry for your team.. that is awful. It sounds like you guys were able to pull it together and give a performance you are proud of. I hope it brought your team closer!
2. Where were their parents during this!? What kind of parents would let their kids pull that kind of stunt (..sorry...
About to obnoxiously go follow all of you.. probably going to lose some noncheer followers this weekend ha! But I'd prefer to gain some cheer ones anyways ;)
Anyone else in there now? I just joined and it says I'm the only one in there.. not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if no one is in there at the moment!
