for sure. just was contributing to the overall comparison conversation. heck if the people behind the letter want school cheer involvement, i think you will find a lot of support from coaches like myselfI didn't mean to suggest that school coaches are necessarily well-compensated. However, in MOST cases, the salary - meager though it may be - comes from taxes/school budget and not directly from the "fees" paid for cheerleading.
None of this is a knock on school cheer at all. However, comparing the marginal costs to the athlete for each is a little misleading sometimes.
