I was EXTREMELY impressed with all of the teams representing Canada this weekend. Tons of teams making top ten, and those scoring extremely well. Each and every team made a great impression of just what our country can do in this sport. We certainly held out own at Worlds this year and I think we showed everyone just what we are made. And we all know that Canada only continues to get stronger each and every year. Good luck to all the teams heading to CE Nationals in two weeks, it will be my first one not competing in 4 years, but have no doubt I will be there cheering my heart out.

i was there with cheerpride this weekend
what was everyones thoughts on the way it was arranged?

 

[AshleyErin]

I liked it better at hershey...it just didn't feel like nationals this year

 

[spiritmama]

Totally didn't feel like Nationals! And food in Niagara falls is soooo overpriced... $20 bucks for an appitizer? NO THANKS!

I actually really liked it... I've been to Nationals for years and I thought the new venue was great! It was so nice and bright outside in the halls, there were LOTS of bathrooms, and we were able to have the awards ceremonies in the other room... I thought that it all came together very nicely. The food in restaurants was definitely over-priced, but there were also smaller restaurants in the area that weren't nearly as bad. Obviously, there are going to be kinks that CE will have to work out. BUT I think it was so so good overall. The practice gym ran SO smoothly, and I loved not having to wait FOREVER to actually compete after warming up!

I was both an athlete AND a coach at this event, and I was really impressed in both roles. I know that a lot of people are complaining about the judging... I did have some things that I didn't agree with, but I really think that happens alllll of the time, so there's not much that anyone can do about it!

 

[AshleyErin]

See I didn't think there were enough bathrooms! and the seating was terrible, I just didn't enjoy the venue in general. Seemed like there were too many people for the convention centre, I competed wayyyy to late for my liking. But on the plus side, CE is stepping it up in the practice room

 

[spiritmama]

Ten PM is waaaay too late for any team competiting. Just sayin lol

I was not a fan of the coaches gift... half of my coaches are underaged, and the othr half rarely drink, so wine was a no go! They usually have great coaches gifts, and better athlete gifts. That was a bummer.

see i have split reviews while i did enjoy the practice gym - amount of time given to practice, and not having to wait around, staff was very professional moving teams around, and it didnt feel crowded because the room appeared to be bigger

i was however disappointed with awards this year having it in the separate room just felt super awkward to me, i also didnt like how we could not stand front and center to watch our teams compete having to view from the side was not the same at all i do like that they have continued the usage of the raised stage from years previous

 

[ViperCheerleader]

I thought the venue was very small. This is NATIONALS! For my team its one of the most important comps we go to and I wanted it to be bigger. When I went to watch the senior team from my gym either you sat on the uncomfortable bleaches or the chairs which werent much of a step up. I would have preffered it to be at the Hershey Center to sum it all up

I also agree with you about the awards ! I did not like it at all !
