We're Going CheerMAD at Worlds with members of the new CheerMAD Parents Panel posting and sharing all weekend.
Starting tonight on the eve of Worlds, we'll begin introducing you to several members whose kids are competing, and some not competing this weekend. Then over the next several weeks, at Summit and D2, others will post.
CheerMAD announced that it was taking applicants for this new group two months ago and the result represents a variety of cheer parents.
I’m very pleased with the outcome.
These are parents who are informed and involved. Some have athletes competing this weekend at Worlds, others will be at Summit and still others at D2. They represent large well known gyms, smaller gyms you’ve heard of and gyms that are relatively new.
They are from the North, South, East and West, there’s even one from Nebraska! They are international CheerMADs. There are parents of special needs athletes and parents of Allstars that are cheering their last year and moving onto college cheer. Their kids cheer in high school and on several All Star teams. They have one child in cheer, they have four children in Allstars, and all are Certifiably CheerMAD!
We’re also very proud to announce that over Worlds, Summit and D2, Rebel Athletic and Varsity Spirit will be supporting the cheer parent voice. Rebel is sponsoring the CheerMAD Parent Panel by outfitting members’ athletes with its Dream Bags and Apparel. During Summit and D2 coverage will be embellished with sponsored content by Varsity Spirit and CheerMAD will have an exclusive update on the new cheer venue at ESPN Wide World of Sports.
As always, CheerMAD remains dedicated to its authentic and independent voice, supporting the cheer parent: the real customer of this $4 Billion sport. For the last six years, we grew CheerMAD from 10,000 readers in the first six weeks to more than seven million last year, and are running at an average of 300,000 social media impressions PER DAY!

CHRIS COOR
Two daughters, Faith, 16 and Lauren 14.
Gym:Cheer Athletics, Plano, Texas
Teams:Sr. 5 All Girl; Jr. 5 Coed
Attends 12-14 comps a year, including Worlds, Summit, NCA, UCA, The Majors, Champions League and US Finals. His favorite is NCA because it’s “in my backyard, no travel, it’s the super bowl of cheer and because of the energy in the arena.”
What makes Chris Certifiably CheerMAD?
“I have been a cheer dad for almost 12 years and only missed two competitions. I have sacrificed so much to make my girls’ dreams come true: we moved to Dallas so that they could cheer at Cheer Athletics. I missed my (Chicago) Cubs win the World Series for cheer!”
Here are some of the other CheerMAD Parents Panel members who will be posting this weekend
