Hello Everyone! I’m new to this site but cheered in high school and college. I now have a 16 year old who cheers. I am wanting to get into panel judging (went to a USASF legality training this past year and decided on the first day that it wasn’t what I really wanted to do), any advice of where...
A fellow coach and I are currently part of an all star team. However, it is not a cheerleading gym - it is a team offered by a dance studio - we only practice once a week with our teams throughout the year to compete. The program has not grown in the four years we have had it (we are not the...
I thought I'd start a new thread on this since the other post are old. Any advice when visiting College Cheer Clinics? Also, is there a site that has an updated list of Clinics?
Thanks
I posted this is in the coaches room and it didn't seem to get much traction, so I thought I'd try here!
I am one of 3 coaches at the high school I graduated from. In the 4 years I was there as a student, we have never competed with more than 10 girls. We had our first "open gym" where we let...
Hi everyone. I'm looking for some advice on how I can get my CP motivated at cheer. We moved to a new gym this season and she rocked it at tryouts. She also kept up her work ethic over the summer. All of a sudden she's started giving up. She went from basing the biggest senior flyer (at 11 years...

I started cheering my freshman year of college and my team doesn't have any tumbling (or a coach eek). I just made captain (as a junior) and my co-captain and I want to add tumbling so we can eventually become a competitive team. We're planning on taking classes as a team, but I'd like to be...

I was hoping for some thoughts and advice from others about the best option for my daughter long term.
A little background first. Her cheer age is 6. She just completed her first Allstar season on a Mini 1. She loves it. We are at a large gym with 40+ teams currently. She loves the coaches and...
Hi everyone!
I've been looking into starting my own all star cheer team for a few years now, but I don't have any coaching experience. I used to cheer during my high school years, but had to stop when I was diagnosed with lupus in 2008. I don't really know where to start in regards to coaching...
Hey all, this is my first year as a flyer and I'm needing some advice. I live in Canada so partner stunting isn't anywhere near what it is in the states (for the most part obviously) and though me and my stunting partner have toss to hands/extension easily I was wondering if anyone has tips for...
hi!
I am looking for any information on choreographers in or near PA for allstar cheer and any helpful advice on our first time as an allstar cheer team,
My daughter (age 8) is working on her back tuck. She is really stuck in a bad habit right now, and she's struggling to fix it. She keeps throwing her head and she's also opening up from her tuck position too soon. Any tips or tricks for her to help her remember to keep her head straight and...
Hi, does anyone have the infinity halo trainers?
Was wondering about them actually helping you jump higher...do they actually work or is it just a fun gimmick that won't stick around?
I will be going on my first travel competition and am wondering about tanning. Since we leave 2 days before we compete and it's a 2 day competition, I'm not sure if I should tan before we leave or do it when I arrive.
So for the parents/athletes who do travel competitions a lot, what do you...
hello! I am one of 3 captains on my high school team, and we have been experiencing stunting challenges with a particular team member since the beginning of our season (June). This team member is new to cheerleading, and she attended UCA camp over summer with the rest of the team to learn the...
Hello! So I coach a high school team, and we've been unable to get traditional 360s (from load to half or extension) but I think we may have some success in trying full arounds (from a half to half or back to load/to extension) I think some teams refer to them as "retakes", but I'm unsure of the...
Has anyone done this stunt that has any advice? For reference I am coming from a collegiate competitive cheerleading club. Our rewinds are not making much progress and we would like to add this stunt into the routine instead, but it would have to show significant progress in a weeks time. Thanks!
