    Thanks so much!

    All-Star Looking For A Video

    I saw it on here ages ago and I can't find it. It's a mini team that was at a comp and basically said f it and started throwing tucks and fulls. It's hilarious and I wanted to show someone. thanks!

    All-Star 2020-2021 Uniform Reveals

    I was thinking the same thing. Imagine a base getting a finger caught in a d ring. Not a great design.

    All-Star Cheersport 2021

    this is something I respect about US Lacrosse. Their official stance is that kids should play more than one sport to minimize injury, burn out, etc. My cheerleader is actually a killer lacrosse player. She may have to take this year off because of crossing to two cheer teams, but we won't do...

    All-Star Is Cea Over?

    I used to be a gymnastics coach, and our gym owner always came to the 3 year old classes to look for the "hot bodies". He literally meant the kids who were shaped like gymnasts, but the fact that a 40 year old dude was calling a 3 year old a hot body was gross to me.

    All-Star Going From A D1 To D2 Gym ????

    We switched from a D1 to a D2 last year. It wasn't a financial decision, though, and was a personal one. My daughter had spent 4 years at the D1 and it had grown tremendously each year. She hit a point where she just felt like another cog in the wheel. They'd stopped putting the effort into...

    All-Star Covid-19 / Varsity Response

    I also think it would be a great way to have teams test out new routine sections, or even just get some experience competing their routines before the season is in full swing.

    They're free, but so so very difficult to get. My grandmother is 87 and has been trying for weeks.

    All-Star "allstar World Championship"

    Before varsity said it would honor last years summit bids, this comp was offering to let teams who had bids compete in their bid event. That was pretty attractive for people! Our gym is planning to take advantage of this. I'm not sure if we will in the end, just because I don't trust anything...

    All-Star Robert Scianna Arrest For Soliciting Minor.

    Another one bites the dust. This is all so sad. I hate that the sport my girls love has so many sex scandals and gets a bad name to outsiders. So sad. (We live in a rather small cheer part of the country and we had two scandals in a year a couple of years ago. It's so sad).

    All-Star Covid-19 / Varsity Response

    I'm not even going to justify this with a response. You are clearly very young, and completely not understanding the reality of this pandemic.

    All-Star 2020-2021 Uniform Reveals

    We saw a flasher last year. I felt so so so bad for this girl. She was a flyer and when she lifted her arms, the entire solid part of her top was over her bra (thank goodness she was wearing one!!!) so, she was covered I my by white mesh for a good chunk of the routine. I was horrified for her...

    All-Star Covid-19 / Varsity Response

    If a gym gets a positive test, they SHOULDN'T be competing!!! So, using that as a reason not to test is kind of crazy to me. Tests are abundant here on the west coast. I wouldn't even think of saving them for people who need them. They are plentiful. Vaccines - now those are hard to get. those...

    All-Star Covid-19 / Varsity Response

    Testing isn't at all difficult to find here. I know loads of people who have to be tested weekly for work. As I said, HS sports are mandating weekly testing, and I believe plan to offer testing on site. If I needed one, there are at least 10 different places within a half hour I could go to...

    All-Star Covid-19 / Varsity Response

    We have two potential in person comps on our schedule. I'm not going to lie, I'm nervous. I've worked so hard to keep my kids safe and healthy, and I do worry about the long term effects on then heart and brain. Sadly, I suspect my kids have all already had it. We were deathly ill in February...

    All-Star Covid-19 / Varsity Response

    It can't hurt. We had to bring a kid in for an EKG and it was incredibly easy. We had an appointment with our local children's hospital two days after I called. (ETA - it was completely non emergency too. Just needed to be cleared to start a medication)

    All-Star Covid-19 / Varsity Response

    If my daughter ever tests positive, I plan to bring her in for an echocardiogram before I let her practice full out again. The risk of myocarditis is shockingly high. Ohio State finds heart damage in 15 percent of college athletes after COVID diagnosis | wtsp.com

    All-Star Covid-19 / Varsity Response

    Do you think summit/worlds would be any better, since they're on Disney property and Disney has been quite strict? Our gym is debating on going and I'm debating on whether or not I feel safe bringing my daughter if we do go.

    You've gotta appreciate Top Gun's commitment to pushing the envelope, but sometimes they just push it right off the table.

    All-Star 2020-2021 Uniform Reveals

    The Halloween costume look of LL just doesn't work for me. I see what they were going for, but I feel like I could easily see that as a costume at a frat party.
