[stuntaholic]

Maybe a hassle bout wouldn't it make your team stand out among the rest?

I would think it would make you stand out, but maybe not for a good reason. There are skills that could be thrown to up your score instead of stopping a routine for a cheer that adds nothing.

Im not saying stopping the routine. I am saying using it as a motions section.

teams still do it sometimes. but it would make more sense to put another stunt section or something that would put you higher in the rankings, because the cheer is not scored.

but still. you don't need a motion section in your routine. There can be motions in other places.
Most people would rather do something else with those 2 8counts.

It's named that because all star competition has evolved from traditional sideline cheerleading. It was named by Jeff Webb and Jeff Fowlkes when they founded USASF and the Worlds competition.

So, I've answered your question that you have posted several times so you obviously think the answer is some kind of "gotcha".

Now why don't you tell me why you want to know and what deep, dark secret I've unveiled?

Thank you for the information. I do not know the ins and outs of the USASF and the Worlds competition. I have followed many threads for the past two years, regarding allstars not being the same as cheerleading. Many allstar athletes, coaches and parents have voiced opinions on how they want the perception changed because their sole purpose is to compete and they are not leading cheers. But it occurred to me that the biggest championship of their season is Worlds and it was called "cheerleading". I didn't understand why their identity was being named something that they do not do. I still don't. It is confusing, and I stand firm on this because most people on these forums seem to want their own identity. This was less "gotcha" and more "I don't get it".

Many people on this board ask questions without being questioned as to their motives for the question. I don't think you revealed a deep dark secret, but rather the logic employed for the namesake. Thank you again for presenting the "why"...I don't have to accept that logic for many reasons, except for one...cheerleading is by AACCA's position not a sport but an activity (not my opinion at all especially for the collegiate teams that compete extremely high level skill sets) as their primary purpose is to support. Allstars do not support ...unless I have it wrong (very possible), I was under the impression that they began training in cheer gyms and gymnastics facilities with an intensity that surpassed the activity.
