Maddie graduated from UNC-CH and took a entrance level job as a reporter at WFMY in Greensboro. Why? Top 50 market. She has just gotten a promotion to weekend am anchor after 1 year and is now self sufficient. Why? Because cheer was good for her. It made her tough. She learned how to win...

Knowing one that I believe has conducted herself beyond reproach I can tell you a small few will get some endorsement money, some are or will be paid to advertise on their accounts, some are doing clinics or gym visits for money and others promoting clothes, etc on websites for sale. But all of...

None of them ever really leave. She's still there.

You learn many lessons in life. May I suggest to the athletes that feel the need to express frustration and anger on social media that winning and losing with grace, humility and good sportsmanship is a much more important lesson to learn than any title, trophy, banner or jacket can ever...

Nice to see a Mt. Airy girl is still the best flyer on SE. I would say Low Gap, but it does not have a PO Box.

I met him a few times. Nice young man. He seemed solely focused on obtaining notoriety.

Certainly another model for making your way in life. We did not know this was a follow on, but as you say, predictable.

A few of things on that article and really any article like this on any topic. My wife was interviewed by phone and we were shocked that there would even be any interest. If you have ever done one of these or anything with the press you may know how difficult it is to give answers to a line of...

My favorite is Cheer Extreme and Senior Elite. But not from the first. We had a small, very small part in making CEA go from a group of 5o kids at Forbush High School in 1997 into a team that won NCA multiple times and Worlds twice by 2012. The Smith women deserve all the credit. In fact, my...

About right. Hope to see you and our friends at NCA. Going with LaSarah, hopefully Cass and Madz, who will be doing some work for CC and others. We do miss cheer, but life goes on. It is a big world out there, for some cheer is a life, but for most it is a great springboard. No regrets for...

Brandon.

Joelle and CSP are the parents of the Champion's League along with a wealthy uncle. They like each other and have a lot of things in common. They have become good friends. They are both talented women and genuinely nice people. Them working together on the big picture will be very positive...

Good point. They try, but it takes awhile and about a year out of the sport to "wash that sport right out of your hair". If you have a child on the team that is being discussed it is hard to stay "above the fray" so to speak, but you never will regret not saying anything in response. I say...

A couple of things about CSP and SE not directed at anyone or any certain post here. She creates these routines and can change them, quickly, the whole thing in a weekend and those kids will do it, well. I've seen it many times. She can even do dances. She uses the observations and criticisms...

Courtney is an artistic extrovert. Unusual combination. Meaning she is very internally creative but constantly looks to other's opinions not for affirmation of her idea, but any new idea or opinion she can contemplate or incorporate. If she respects your opinion she will seek you out. Her...

Since I'm here tonight trying to decide if the more things change the more they stay the same, and I have decided in the affirmative, a little note on Abby Golding. Abby is from Mount Airy, was on the original satellite teams for CEA here in 2001. She competed on the junior teams that won NCA...

F5 Panthers. Senior Elite. World Cup. I hope everyone who wants to see cheer flourish as a sport will judge teams by things that are the most objective in a routine. Things like athleticism, stamina, strength, timing, synchronization, technique, landings, flexibility, competence...

I hear Missy and Jeff's co-ed, partner stunt and twerk routine is worth the admission. That said, great time with great people in a nice town and great venue. I think it will be GREAT.

For you old timers and CEA fans, NCA Junior Large All Girl 2006 Champs: With great respect to all the athletes that made Cheer Extreme successful in the years before 2005/2006, like Kelly Smith, Katie Lanier, Shelly Smith and so many more, this was the group of kids that helped put the...

I wanted to let you know since you are a good friend of SE that the staff, Courtney and Ben, and my eyes say they are the best they have ever been in regards to talent and potential.
