I 100% agree with this point- however nobody seems to know - or claim to care to know enough about cheerleading to independently organize governance or real oversight. Cheer has always been this “thing” nobody wants to mess with.
While I don’t want to say Varsity has a place for stepping in...
Everyone goes on about how Varsity is a monopoly… but let’s be real- has anyone even come close to doing it better or even slightly REALLY different?! Nope
Every company tries to take a fraction of what the company does and then does a sub par or overly trendy fast faded version of it- nobody...
I love that it clearly expresses expectation.
I also agree with parents… why in heavens would anyone want to pay to have their child nugget for 2/3 of a routine and front spot.
This new scoring will also more clearly define How and why a team won. Bravo
At the National Level, in HS my PERSONAL belief is “levels” should not be a thing.
Here’s why:
1. Many teams in HS are true intermediate or advanced teams but “bump down” to novice or intermediate to “win”… they continue to stay at those levels because they are winning easily in those...
Im hoping cases go down. I’m also hoping it’s just a 4th of July/Summer travel bump … perhaps things will settle when people are home and back to school- not so displaced from summer activity. I know that everyone I know has taken a vacation or two lately. While back to school might make people...
So- everything was going great 3/4 weeks ago… things were looking optimistic- it’s soooo refreshing to see various camps in full swing and smiling cheer faces, then - BAM , rising cases EVERYWHERE! (I do not want this thread to get political so if we can PLEASE NOT GO there) but we are from CA...
EVVVVERY... Year, same thing
Worlds ends-people rant angrily about the SAME things+ whatever extra thing REALLY got under their skin THAT year
Cheer Twitter it’s the same hot mess express of bullying and bad mouthing
Around June- everyone “We need CHANGE”
By Mid Oct~Nov ...everyone is over it...
I really feel the inequity of programs being able to assemble for regular full contact practice coupled with multiple variations in roster changes (one athlete is out due to a positive test or potential exposure so someone is subbed in, not to mention people that just gave up and quit) is what...
Hi! The best thing you can do is to allow your bases to initiate or “start” the spin and you finish using your hips and stay very tight pretending you’re in a “tube”.
Try not to do “too much”... remember it takes “team work to make the dream work” and sometimes as a flyer we try to MAKE the...
Yes!!! 100% I feel EVERY other state has handled sports WAY better than us... even the ones or ONE that just said NO because then athletes could just focus on the now and future respectively.
So I’m going just going to say... what they’re doing to CA is really kinda sad- I personally am fine with sports or no sports this year (many of us called the season a long time ago) but there are a lot of athletes being “strung along”... feel bad with the WAY they are handling the sports...
This is why I say- there is SO much we do NOT know... SO MUCH! How will this virus impact us 5-10 years from now? Will mask wearing impact us at all? Will all the sanitizing and cleaning products used have an impact environmentally or on our health? How many strains will we have and are they...
