I would assume they'd look at the Manassas area, but this will be a huge move for them. So many kids they could tap in to.

They should expand to Wisconsin.

I think that this is being questioned since they took on small coed team that just won a bid. That team is out of Virginia and needed a gym to finish out the season with. I think it would be great to open a location out there and give those athletes a permenant home so that they don't have to look for a new gym after worlds.

They actually took on 6 teams! SM SR Coed 5, Lrg SR Coed 4, SR 2, Youth 1, Youth 2, Mini, Tiny.

I don't like the idea of any gym expanding and just being a "franchise", going to different states, etc... But honestly, I'm not sure why! Its more a feeling. Soooo "McDonalds". While I like a Big Mac, fries, and a chocolate shake every other month or so, I don't want it in my face everywhere I go. For money making, it may be a great decision, I just think it minimizes the impact the original gym's power.

Wow I didn't realize that. I thought it was just the small coed 5 team. Even more kudos to Maryland Twisters now, if they want to venture down to Columbus, GA and take me under their wing they are free to do so

Yeah my understanding is that the entire VA Vipers gym is finishing out the season as Twisters.

I think MD Twisters coming to northern Va(NOVA) is a smart idea seeing how Glen burnie and the area that they recently picked up is about an hour to an hour half away. Plus there are a lot of kids that live in Nova that drive to twisters to cheer. Everyone in this area has been wanting them to come here and now that is up for decision is great. Not to brag but Northern Va has the richest counties in america so tuition and paying for gas to get to the gym(where ever it is) won't be a problem. i just think for parents the thought of drive to Glen Burnie through the DC/metro area traffic turned them down from driving that far in the first place. They are just trying to find an area right now were the demand is high and were the gym can be successful

I can tell you that we are SO excited about Twisters moving into Northern Virginia. Tara is one brilliant woman, and knows what she's doing. She is going to make sure that the 'product' that Maryland Twisters will supply in Glen Burnie/Waldorf/Hopefully Virginia will all be indistinguishable through retraining of the Virginia staff, having Glen Burnie staff working closely in Virginia as they do in Waldorf, Twisters Choreo etc. This is all if there is enough demand! And things are looking GOOD!!

Expect big things from Virginia! It's about to get TWISTED!

The real question....will they keep the Maryland twisters name if they're in va?

Cali kept their name in Vegas.

Virginia Twisters just doesn't have the same ring.
