    High School What Are Your School Colors?

    My high school was green and gold. The high school I teach at is maroon and navy. We also use silver/white as an accent colour for uniforms, jackets, etc.

    All-Star Grammar Thread - Have At It

    Colleges can also grant degrees. They also offer nursing, accounting, social work, etc. The main difference between college and university in Canada is the way information is taught and the cooperative education portion of the programs.

    All-Star Gym Apparel

    How close do you live to a border? Getting a U.S. post office box for shipping may be an option. The one I have charges per delivery so it's not a huge expense. Getting my items shipped there and then paying the duty coming across the border is much less expensive than having it shipped directly...

    High School Transportation To Away Games

    I'm in Canada. Cheer is not considered a sport here and many school boards won't even allow a team because we are not recognized by the governing body for sports in our province. I have had major issues at my school in terms of trying to get admin and the ad to see the value of our program. A...

    High School Transportation To Away Games

    My team pays just under $600 (if you're new) or just over $400 (if you're returning). This includes uniform, bow, music, athletic fee, entry fees for 3 competitions, busing, hotel stay for nationals. Additional expenses are shoes and jacket. I allow girls to purchase any white shoe if they are a...

    High School Transportation To Away Games

    There is just so much wrong with this :( There is no way any team should be happening without a coach....imagine the captains running the football team and no coaches. Captains certainly have an important role imo but yelling at fellow teammates is not part of any role. My suggestion, as a...

    High School Transportation To Away Games

    We do the same. Buses to but parents may drive home. If a student is not riding the bus back to school then we require a signed letter at least 2 practices before the date.

    High School Transportation To Away Games

    Sorry for the double post but couldn't figure out how to quote both. There is no reason in my opinion that the cheerleaders should not be able to have a bus if they are paying for it! If the AD does not agree then I would go to the principal to change that.

    High School Transportation To Away Games

    My team is always transported by bus. The cost of the bus is paid by my girls through their fees for the cheer team.

    High School Transportation To Away Games

    At my school each team has $500 to use towards their team as needed. The majority of teams use this money for busing to games. Longer trips to tournaments is am additional fee that is paid by the individual team members. All costs for our teams is calculated before our season begins and given to...

    Cheer Bow Material Help

    Can you post a picture of the bow? From the description it sounds like vinyl but I'd be able to say more definitely if I saw a picture. As far as spandex/lycra material spandex house and spandex world are both good companies to use.
