One of the moms from our special needs team, The Angels, asked me to submit some ideas for a team T-Shirt. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Quick back story: Dave's dad has been working as the emcee for the AASCF competitions for a long time. He never thought either of his sons would be involved in the cheer world, but now one is a cheer music producer (who did my worlds track :D), and Dynamite Dave made his debut a month ago as an...

I know there is a whole shirt trading thing but the special needs team I coach doesn't have the funds to produce the shirts to trade with others. And we were hoping that any team would be kind to donate some of their gyms shirts to them!! These girls are so inspired by all the teams they see...

Is it true that Jamfest does not give jackets to the special needs teams that compete? I heard this and thought it could not be true.

The competition this year is going to be great! As of today, there are 16 special needs cheer teams and 2 special needs dance teams registered!! It's going to be a great competition!!

Y'all generally know about my passion for the special needs teams. An article was just published in Cheer Biz News outlining a lot of information on how to start a team. Natalie Reinert did a great job of taking the time to really understand the division and what needed to be done. I'm very...

Just wanted to make sure that everyone was aware of the new special needs rules: 1. teams are limited to level 3 rules with the additional restriction of no basket tosses. 2. event producers are allowed to let the special needs teams choose to exhibit or compete. Please help make sure all...

Now I'm sure at the major Nationals where they are actually being ranked the Special Needs teams will receive feed back on their score sheets on what they need to improve and things they should fix. However at most competitions they are more of exhibitions teams. What do you feel is...

I coach the Special Needs Team at Idaho Cheer University in Boise, Idaho. I am just curious as to what other gyms have special needs teams and what they do with them. Do you do more of an all-star routine with a jump section, tumbling passes, stunt sequences, dance, etc. or is it more just...

Calling all cheerleaders, Our special needs team won NCA Allstar Nationals this season, and they are entered in a contest to win a grant from the Pepsi Refresh Campaign! We would apreciate it if we could get everyone out there to vote for them. They are just as passionate about cheerleading...

Step 1 has had a pretty descent sized Special Needs team the last few years. And they always try to have some sort of "dance" or party for them at the end of each season. Well this year was no exception and the theme was a masquerade prom. It gives the kids a chance to have a night to be...

One of the members of the CTA Special needs Team has passed away. I don't know the details but the email said that he passed on peacefully. Please keep their family in your prayers. My ex-husband worked with the child's father and as far as I know he was deployed with him. So sad for the family :(

I know that 12 special needs teams have already registered for Cheersport Nationals. But we're trying to find out if any others are coming. Who's attending in this division? Even if you haven't registered the team yet. ACE Birmingham Bows & Arrows ACE Atlanta Dreamcatchers
