So the changes made (good or bad) were to address 3 major problems.
1. Injuries are increasing in allstar cheerleading and cheerleading has issues getting insured. Hence new tumbling rules.
2. Cheerleading numbers have decreased last year drastically. Changing ages and divisions in theory open up the sport and make it a little bit more attractive to bring in new people (in theory).
3. The image portrayed of allstar cheer in the media is negatively impacting the sport (or so it is believed). Hence the image rules.
How should these problems have been addressed?
