    All-Star High Schools & How They Perceive All Stars

    Our high schools are also not allowed to wear rhinestones, have glitter, have sequins, etc. They also can't double down, do basket tosses, release moves, etc. They can't even do a level 3 front flip (where the backspot holds the hands). It is a bit ridiculous.

    All-Star High Schools & How They Perceive All Stars

    In Kansas, our high schools are not allowed to compete. They can do "festivals" that are like competitions but are not allowed to get placed. So the gym I work for has girls that do HS cheer, but all-star definitely comes first. Our high school cheerleaders are primarily sideline...

    All-Star 2013 Pet Peeves

    I am not friends with any of the kids from our gym on fb. I find it unnecessary. We have a gym fb page that they can get updates on, etc. I am friends with a few moms but only the ones who I am really close with. With that behind said I keep my fb very professionals anyways since I am a high...

    All-Star 2013 Pet Peeves

    Oh also - when they do a bajillion things before the awards ceremony - dance off, tumble off, stunt off, free frisbee giveaway, mardi gra beads, etc. If the award ceremony is scheduled to start at 2, then teams should start to be announced at that time. If they aren't ready at the schedule...

    All-Star 2013 Pet Peeves

    As a coach, when we go to a warm up room and 1) no one is telling us when to go on and off the floor or 2) when we warm up then wait 45 minutes to take the floor...like what is the point of a warm up when you are completely cooled down by the time you hit the floor?

    All-Star Bad Falls Or Busts

    look up pro spirit tumbling crash, or the one from Cali Aces this year on youtube. BTW, awesome that you are doing a Ted Talk - I personally love those, even have the app on my phone. I am a HS teacher and often show them to my class for various reasons. Good luck!

    All-Star Can A Coach Push To Hard?

    Yes, its all in the approach, I can get the same result from two very different athletes just in the way I ask them to do something. One athlete will respond better if I yell at her, the other I have to tell her something positive before I do any sort of correction or else she will take it as me...

    All-Star Can A Coach Push To Hard?

    being both an all star coach and a HS teacher, I feel that you just have to know your athletes/kids. All kids are different, some can handle really hard coaching and lots of pushing, but others may shut down in the same situation. I find this a lot on junior level and under teams, when you...

    Level 3 Two Man Stunts

    Hello, What is the legal way for level 3 to do extended one-legged stunts with two bases? I have heard mixed things so wanted to get clarification on this. Does one person have to be in the backspot position, or just have a hand on the ankle? Does it matter which base places the hand on the...

    All-Star Very Important!! New Tumbling Rules Questions. We Need Your Help.

    The main reason I believe the tumbling restrictions should me removed is because it levels the playing field of our sport. Our sport is competitive for a reason. Coming from a smaller gym, these restrictions may even benefit us. We dont have kids in our gym throwing full doubles or double...
