what hurts "cheerleading's" chances is the fact that the governing body for the specific competition aspect is pretty much privatized, not it's name...
But soccer and USAG are all still doing the same things.
Would you say the difference between high school and premier soccer is equivalent to sidelines and sport cheer?
There are non physical sideline competitions. Chant lines that compete and do cheers against other teams. Is that not also competitive cheer?

I can't say I'm very familiar with "chant lines" or anything related to it. But I still have a feeling, at that point it's really just nitpicking, as almost anything can be construed as "competitive".
You can have competitive scrabble competitions or bridge clubs. Competitive just means you compete at it. You could have competitive underwater basket weaving really.
And that was the pt. Because by that same token you could use your term Sport Cheer and say that "sport" is a fairly ambiguous term as well. All going back to the name being of less importance than the way its defined.

But Sport Cheer provides a clearer separation than sideline and competitive cheerleading. Because sideline could be competitive.
I think we are going about this wrong. People outside of this sub culture will never see it as a sport regardless of what we call it. We should be recruiting certain kids, children, and grand children of law makers, state and federal. Also, how about some kids of a couple of ESPN personalities or executives. I am actually serious about this. It could help the way allstar cheerleading is looked at in the future.
