I don't know if i should cheer next year or not... it's a hard decision since it's my senior year and i want to be a senior and have all of the privileges the seniors get, but my coach doesn't like me and i'm kind of miserable because the seniors this year hate my guts. I don't know if it will be better next year or what...
i really need to work on my stunting (alot... i've only taken like 4 partner stunt classes over the summer) and a little on my tumbling and right now with high school cheer i don't have enough time to do either since my coaches won't let me fly because all of our flyers are under 90 pounds, and i can't base because i'm shorter than everyone else (they won't even let me try.) at practices we don't work on tumbling or stunting at all, and we literally never get anything done. we have practice until 6:30 every day and we actually do nothing. it's not like i'm not good enough to cheer in college (unless you're my coach and you continuously tell me i'm not) but i really need to focus more on stunting and tumbling if i want to make a good team (kentucky is my goal... but it's so hard to make the team and i don't want to be disappointed) i feel like if i don't cheer my senior year i'm going to regret it, but i also feel like if i do i'm going to regret not being able to focus on the important college cheer things.... ugh... decisions.... anyone have an idea on what i should do?
Slightly different situation but as a freshman I did allstar and hs. The one and only senior on my team hated me and she eventually became assistant coach the next year telling me through TEXT MESSAGE I couldn't do both programs. My parents basically told me "we'd rather pay to see you actually have fun" and it was well worth it. If you can get to an allstar program where you will be valued and have fun, do it especially for your senior year.
