All-Star Cheer Athletics (questions/rumors)

[Cheer Dad]

How hard is it to make a level 5 team if I'm a boy? What skills/ specialties will give me a chance at making?

Have you seen the guys at your gym that are already on L5? Not affiliated with CA but my 2 cents is learn to coed stunt like a beast, get a standing full, running dub, specialty thru to dub, know how to dance and jump, jumps to back, and then never stop trying to improve then you stand a chance of making a L5 team at CA.

It depends on the skills of others trying out, your age, your location, and many other factors.

was it delayed because of strippers, having plastic surgery to look better in selfies, or some pastor stole peoples money? Lol sorry that's what was shown instead of the CA/CA report.

I think it was some news story that wasn't exactly breaking, but wasn't a puff piece either.

My gym doesn't have a lvl 5 because not enough people have the skills
But I'm going to keep working hard!

I think he was just assuming you went to CA b/c of your profile pic.

You are not with CA? Just read in another thread you commented about carpooling and not going back to old gym. Assumed based on that and profile pic you were at CA.

No problem. Thanks for clarifying though I know I'll forget and ask again.

Id assume so since they were last year and are in a worlds division.

I guess LSAG5 isn't the only division that's going to give me high blood pressure this year... :enjoyshow:

how many alternates per team do you guys usually bring to worlds? And how do you decide who will be an alternate?

It is generally 1 or 2 per team, but the number varies. The decisions on alternates are case-by-case, but we generally put the athletes on the floor whose particular abilities give the team the best chance for success. Note: that doesn't necessarily mean the best 24, 30, 36 individual athletes. (Example: an NFL team's kicker may not be even remotely as strong, fast, or agile as the backup wide receiver, but his ability to kick field goals has a bigger impact on their winning chances.)
