I know people often talk about in the all star world of sandbagging by teams by crossing over higher level athletes to lower, etc but I was curious about this discussion in the high school world. For example I know of a school who has majority squad tucks but competes as a "non tumble" because...
Hello Everyone!
I am currently looking to add a JV coach to my current program. We cheer for sports and also compete. The school is located in Southern California. If you would like more information or are interested please get back to me!
HS coaches can be under a lot of pressure (not just from themselves, but from parents, athletes, and the administration) to amass skills as quickly as possible. How does one ensure that their kids aren't rushed through tumbling progressions, but are still able to do decently well competitively...
Hello,
I am a high school coach and I am running into a snag with uniforms. We have 24 new uniforms from GK Cheer. They were first worn in 2014 and we are still wearing them now. When they were purchased they were purchased at custom fit for the current team, not thinking about the future. They...

I plan on joining my high school cheer team on Monday. I also do allstar cheer and I'm a junior coach for my sisters rec team. I was just wondering if you have any tips for me and what its like? I was also wondering what would happen if I have a competition on the same day the high school team...
I've just received a Coaching position at a High School for the first time. I am excited but nervous at the same time because the team wants to be a competitive team and I have only been coaching middle school. What are some things I should do to prepare this team for competitions?
i base for allstar but I'm actually pretty small compared to everyone on my high school team. i've always had problems with extensions, i immediately start to toe or fall out of the stunt. i also feel like i don't completely trust my stunt group and i don't know why. all the girls on the team...
I'm curious to see what tumbling different HS teams have, since I know that it can vary a lot. At my school we have 2 whip through fulls (1 JV, 1 varsity), 6 fulls (1 JV, 5 Varsity), 5 whip through layouts (1 JV, 4 varsity), 15 layouts (5 JV, 10 varsity), 6 tucks (4 JV, 2 varsity), and 10 back...
What is the likely hood of making an open team? Open teams are usually for people who want to cheer over the age of 18.I graduated high school in May but I have no desire to cheer for my college team and I'm not even sure if I would make the team. I want to possibly try out for an open team but...
I'm the new head coach for the program and I want to start competitions, the big competitions that are pretty local are all Jamz organizations. I was wondering if anyone had gone this route for high school? What did you think of it? Do they need an actual cheer in the routine? I've only...
For those who have already received your compliant music, who did you go through and do you like it?
Looking for a new music provider. Would love some insight.
I'm taking over a new program this year, the same program I cheered for when I went to HS so I'm SUPER excited about it. I am friend with our "rival" schools cheer coach and the two of us thought it would be a good idea to host a home camp together so we are looking for bonding ideas for our...
I know the UCA Camp at the University of Kentucky will feature top high school squads like Dunbar, Greenup County, Graves County, North Laurel, Pikeville and many more squads.
Any of you have an excel spreadsheet that you use for budgeting?
I've looked for templates that I could modify, but always feel like I'm reinventing the wheel.
Maybe I'm just old fashioned but.... I will never be the parent who gives alcohol to a minor.
When my son was in the hospital, my daughter called and asked if she could attend an end of school party for 7th& 8th graders. Since I missed her awards and she had no one but her older brother there...
I can't decide whether to do all star cheer (I have never done it before) or school which I have been doing. With the skills I have I would most likely make the level 4 all-star team possibly level 5. However I am already on my schools varsity cheer team and I could do sideline just not...
Not sure if anyone can give me an insight on this since I know every school and person is different but I made my gyms open team... And also got accepted into my first year of elementary education! I live in Canada so cheer isn't as intense but I'm still worried about balancing the two...
