my guess is the only reason why there was a consideration of NCA leaving Daytona is because of $$. NCA stated the reason was a lack of housing which is completely untrue. Daytona has a ton of places to stay, but a lot is through VRBO versus direct hotel, and Varsity can't get their kickback that...
I agree. I would also argue that NT should be level 4 stunts, because with the exception of a handful of teams at Worlds, most NT teams would not be competitive as a level 3 team
There have been constant allegations since 2018 and lots of all star and college cheerleaders are friendly with Navarro cheerleaders. It is no secret that the program has issues and none of them are new.
If this happened at a legitimate university the school would have at the very least placed...
The writing has been on the wall for a while. The added divisions, particularly the NT divisions, has diluted all of the original senior divisions. As much as I love the large teams, it doesn't make sense to keep a division with 2-4 teams. I think the industry needs to do a complete restructure...
I agree - the whole presentation seemed messy and chaotic - tumbling too. Which is what I always thought Panthers did best.
It will be interesting to see what happens. Both teams were great - not sure which way the judges are going to go.
Their tumbling is beautiful. There has not been enough of this - I feel like last year teams were more focused on it, but seeing Fearless do it so consistently it should make a huge difference in tumbling technique scores.
TGLC looks amazing this year.
I hate for any team to fall, but Fierce 5 has been one of my favorite teams for years. I would love to see them get gold.
I'd like to see them as well (I'm not counting on it). Midnight had a big collision in the dance on the right side - that had to have been a deduction if scored correctly
Medium coed has always been my favorite division and I hate that there are only 4 teams now, but they were all amazing. I wish Midnight was cleaner - their uniforms are such a distraction for me. I have Cali winning, but whoever wins I think the scores are going to be so close.
It has gotten so out of hand. And some of the NT teams couldn't be competitive at level 3.
I loved watching ICU and I wish worlds would limit the divisions similarly. There were 10 divisions in 2015 and each year they keep adding more.
It may be due to the civil lawsuit (which is on the gymnastics side of the camp), but the press release is stating that all Woodward camps are now strictly focusing on ski/board/xtreme sports (two locations are official training centers for U.S. Ski and Snowboard). I never thought the mix of...
If these injuries are happening at practice, then there is a safety issue and it needs to be addressed. A conversation with the athletic director is warranted but things may not improve. We had a similar situation and my youngest quit her high school team her sophomore year due to safety...
Premier Athletics sent out a press release and it appears they did everything correctly. Stingrays also encountered a similar situation and also handled things as they should. I can't blame a gym owner for not knowing a sexual predator is in their gym, and if they notify the authorities and...
