So I have been cheering for 7 years. I have done allstar for levels 2,3,4,4.2, and 5NT. I’m going to be a Sophomore in highschool and this was going to be my second and last sideline/competition seasons with my school before returning to allstar. I have mental blocks regarding tumbling because...
My 13-year-old daughter wants to cheer on a D1 college team; how many years does she need to be on an All-Star team to try out for College? Given that she has all of her tumbling, jump, and dance, etc. requirements, I'm just trying to gauge when to start the time commitment and not have her burn...
I have been head cheer coach for 5 years. I have an assistant who handles JV and one who handles freshmen. This year my JV assistant told the AD that she was going to quit if we didn't make the workload less. The AD decided that we should split the seasons. She would handle all summer practices...
Hi!
I recently got hired on as a coach for the all-star team I competed with for 5 years. I will be coaching either a tiny or mini team and am looking for any advice to keep them engaged, practice structure, drills, games, etc. Any advice or suggestions are much appreciated.
:D
Thank You!!
Daughter is a 1st year HS football cheerleader and enjoying it. We as a family discussed that this would be her last year of AllStar and she would cheer HS football and join the competitive team next year. More flexible and we could finally take a vacation!!
Fast forward- it is October and 13...
Hoping I can get some advice as I am currently freaking out, haha.
I am 21F, with one season of all-star under my belt (level 2 when I was 10 lol). I have missed cheer so much for the past decade and decided one night last week that I might go for it and try out somewhere since I quit my...

Hi!
I’m a junior in high school and I really want to cheer in college, so I need to upgrade my tumbling skills. At the moment I can do bhs series, and am working standing tucks. I need to learn standing tucks, bhs tuck and bhs layout by next March. Do you guys think this is possible? What are...
Hi everyone,
I’m an incoming college freshman. Never cheered on a team a day in my life. I’ve taken a few tumbling and stunting classes at gyms over the years, but my parents never allowed me to join any teams even when I offered to pay for it. It’s a dream of mine to cheer in college or all...
Backstory: Last year I tried out for my high school's cheer team. I was the only girl who had never done cheer before, and I was trying out for my junior year. Me and one other girl didn't make the team, so it had me pretty down. I can do high jumps and stuff just fine, but closest thing to...
My sister’s boyfriend wants to propose to her soon. We know this because he told my mom his intentions about two months before she died, and she told me. He got her blessing.
But a few days after that they broke up because, my sister told me, they cannot communicate. However, then my mom’s...
My CP has been cheering for a long time. So, I have some ideas, but was curious about advice for preparing for tryouts for a level 7 coed team? Her season ended with Worlds. She won’t have tryouts till October. Looking for inexpensive ways for her to stay in shape and prepare for tryouts...
Our school has 1850 students total and a majority of the students come from an Asian background. Our school is very competitive academically, but are lacking in athletics.
For example, our football team has only won once throughout this and the previous season. We really don't have much school...
Are there any high school cheer coaches in Canada - specifically Ontario - who can answer some questions for me? I’m at the very early stages of trying to determine how cheerleading can become recognised by OFSAA. Thanks!
CP just moved from prep to full S3. She’s cheered rec for years, but this is definitely a step up. Any advice on surviving a first full All Star season, especially coming in on a senior team?
Hi!
I am new to the forum and have decided to try out for my college cheer team. The college is a very small, rural community college which is rebranding (as in dropped the "community" from the college name, changed the school colors and added basketball and cheer last fall).
The cheer team...
I posted this awhile back in another thread but with recent conversations, thought it would help those of you who have stress over upcoming tryouts and where your kid is going to fit.
This is going to sound harsh but if you are a parent:
Stay in your lane.
Worry about YOUR athlete.
Do not...
I'm new to this cheer world. My daughter started all star cheering in prep, she finished her 1st full year of all star cheer. I'm looking for advice on the direction we should go moving forward. I feel I should give the entire picture so the best advice possible can be formed so I apologize...
