I know that another thread was created a while back about hazing in college cheer, but I was wondering, is this a problem in high school cheer? I've heard horror stories about hazing in other high school sports, and I was wondering if it has spread to cheer (my guess is yes, but I want other...
I coach an elementary school level 1 team and the principle does not want us going to prep because she fears its too dangerous. The kids have a competition coming up and I know that they may not score high if they do not go to prep at least once. I though about making them go o prep while on...
Hi! I wanted to know if you thought I should do high school or all star cheer. I wanted to cheer at a state university when i go to college (i start high school next year), and I wanted to know if I should tryout for high school or just go to an all star gym to help me achieve my goal. It's not...
I am a veteran coach (7 years) at the school where I teach. I am comfortable with having my tryouts judged by outside judges. However, my district really doesn't want me anywhere near the tryout room/process and it is very frustrating to me. Is this a typical practice?
Hi. I need to purchase a pair of cheer shoes because I am trying out for my school team in April. I have never bought cheer shoes before (or even worn a pair) and right now I just practice in my Nike Frees. I have no idea what to look for in a shoe and do not want to make an uneducated purchase...

I am a cheerleader at a D3 school. The program isn't that old and we don't compete--in fact we barely even stunt. Every year I try to get us to be more of a real deal, but it's really slow going what with the athletics department being hard to work with and our coach not seeming to care enough...
I am beyond excited for this.
I want to see:
-both North Laurels return to their former greatness (they've still got it, I just know it!)
-Dunbar remind America who's boss (in the words of Ayrica's dad, "ARF! ARF! ARARARARAR")

Hi everyone, so I'm a freshman in high school, and I really like this guy (and I know that he likes me). He really wants me to ask him to his school's formal (girls ask guys), but I don't know how I should ask him.

What are the rules for submitting a video for a bid to UCA Nationals? My team did not earn a bid at our regional competition :( There is no other regional under 4 hours away that we could go to. So, I've heard that they do accept video submissions from some teams who don't have a regional...
