Wow! I could only hope and pray my child some day in the future turns out as sweet as yours. This is what this sport is about! Not finding anyway you can to get a jacket but knowing that just because you got out there and performed your best even though you knew you were not likely to win because of things you of your control makes you the true winners in everyones eyes!Already done - my daughter's best friend is on Cali J2 and she said, "Mom I know I'm a winner - my friend needs to know she's a winner too" gave her friend her Dallas jacket.
I WANT THAT JACKET! Ok ...only kidding.I will donate to that cause.
Jersey didn't have what I consider 2 hit routines at cheersport. As far as the girls are concerned, they lost because of that and not because of anything else.
Every few months I type my name into the search bar to see if people are saying anything about me, and by far this is the best result the search filter has ever recovered.If I was Justin Carrier my head would be exploding right now...
I'm actually not. My daughter cheers at a gym near their state so we see them compete at a lot of local competitions.
I think who we should be worried about are the parents I heard scream out and yell CHEATERS and little kids. If you act that way when you get beat how is your child going to act. They didn't break any rule or cheat so to call them cheaters is just stupid. I think what they did was fine and if you disagree then that's fine too but they did nothing ILLEGAL or against any rules so just say you don't agree... cheating is not the right word.
No, you are correct. They didn't break any rules. However, I think that everyone knows exactly why the rules that are in place, are there. It's not about breaking rules for most people, it's about staying within the spirit of the rules that are in place. Are people really so ignorant to think that the staff of NCA sits around thinking up rules saying "Wow! I can't wait to see who figures out how to get around THESE! What a fine day that will be to reward the person who figures out how to work the system!!" No, they don't. And that is where the issue lies. Anybody with a head on their shoulders knows why things are set up at this competition the way that they are, and what the intent is. It's about integrity.
I am a parent and my daughter has been on a level 3 team at Cheersport many years ago and a team beat my team that normally competed level five but competed level 3 to win. Our coaches knew this and just told our girls that they were going to have to work that much harder to win. They never said the other team is cheating or anything like that. They did end up getting second and losing to that team. They deserved to win and we congratulated them. They did not cheat. They threw tucks and standing two back handsprings like we did and did LEGAL level 3 stunts. So calling them cheaters would be ignorant to the sport.
What Rockstar did was not even as bad as that. I watched them this weekend and they looked just as clean as all of there teams ALWAYS do, no matter the level. I believe that is there specialty. In, that routine I didn't see one athlete in the middle of everything.
If there was this AMAZING level five athlete... I couldn't pick her out! If she was that good you would think they would put her in the front of everything? Right? I would also like to comment that just because an athlete has level 5 tumbling doesn't make her a level 5 jumper, dancer, or stunter. My daughter was on a level 3 team one year and was working on a double! And I understood why. She couldn't do any level 5 baskets, her jumps weren't the best then and her stunting ability wasn't there yet.

Also, congrats to Rockstar! All three teams looked great this weekend and I never heard one parent or cheerleader bad mouth any teams that bad mouthed them all weekend long! I heard them telling teams good luck and I rode in an elevator with one of The Who cheerleaders and when she got off she told everyone in the elevator good luck. That's class when a whole room full of PARENTS boos you and you never say a word back. I don't know about you but I was not that poised when I was there age?
Someone else on here has to be imagining all the woefully cliche movie moments with the 'bad' team vs the 'good' team right now..I am.
I am also sad that now whenever I think of the band, my mind will be tainted with stacked teams and sandbagging. And all my non-cheer friends will wonder why my face is contorting into ugly positions of pain and sadness.
