I am a younger coach for a Rec Competition team. I had one parent in particular that would barge in to practice and always make a scene because "i was treating her daughter unfairly" Which was not true. She would constantly tell her daughter she was better than everyone else so her daughter...
I was going to have surgery on my meniscus but i opted out. My orthopedic doctor that I see regularly told me I would have to wear one of those big steel braces you see football players wearing if I got the surgery.
When I did High School Cheer I broke my wrist, tor my bursa, sprained my ankle, and consistantly sprained my lower back. I have had my collar bone broke and many petty injuries.
Back flexibility doesn't hapen over night, give it time. Try bridges and then from there push your legs out straight. Also go on youtube, look up Gabi Butlers stretching videos. They are amazing.
At the high school I cheered at it was broken up in to three teams. We had JV,Varsity, and competition team. All of varsity was on the competition team and jv members were allowed to try out for the two slots we had open. This was aside from the 5 man team that was hand selected by the coaches...
I can relate to your post only for the fact that I konw a coach who does this. I am a coach myself and to see her push the LITTLE girls to more than they are ready for. It is frustrating when coaches want to be the best but forget to do the basics.
In my area there are no governing boards over recreational cheer. We do not have many rec teams, we have 3 to be exact and one of them is not a Rec team though they claim to be. If anyone knows of any in the Arizona area please let me know. Or any information on how to form one. We are all out...
My Team is through our Towns Parks & Recreation. We are soley competition but we do preform at some of our rec teams games. I do not know if that qualifies as "true rec" like some people like to call it. Seeing as how there is no real rules or regualtions as far as that goes I would like to...
That is a very good Idead. Since I developed the program I have had no guidance inhow to run a rec program. Other than how I see my friend who coaches a high school team I have no sense of direction of how or where to go with this.
The Town of Florence is looking for a volunteer coach. Experience wanted, we know this is asking a lot but it would be rewarding. We are a recreation competition team, this being out second year in exsistence. Please email or call Coach Blake for more information.
I have a wide variety of age due to my rec regulations through the town are crazy. So far we are three weeks into practice and all my stunt groups have halfs and most have fulls. This is impressive because my youngest girl is 4 and dshe is right up in those stunts with my 14 year olds.
This is my second year coaching a rec team but things are difficult. I live in a small town and the High School Cheer team here is very good at what they do. I competeted on their team recently until I graduated, which is why I am now coaching. The town is very far from any allstar teams and...
Help!!
I need creative fundraisers for my team to raise money to compete in vegas. It is a recreation squad and the town will not pay for us to go. :( The only issue is because we are non-profit we have to raise money through "donations"
