Woodlands Elite has a new location opening in DeLand, FL which is near Daytona apparently. (I like that the street name is Woodland Blvd). Someone in the comments on a different post said they are taking over another gym, but I can't find a gym with that address so idk.


I understand that cheer gyms are first and foremost businesses and sometimes owners have to sell to stay open, but it does kinda bum me out how many mega gyms have brought out smaller gyms lately, though I'm not sure if that's the case with this specific location.

All these Woodlands Elites in different states when The Woodlands is in Texas and mostly only a recognizable name to Texans. Bizarre times.

It just keeps getting worse. When a “Stingrays” opens down the road, YXZ Allstars D2 gym feels pressure to get a big name too. The name on the door means next to nothing and so many parents fall for it.

If we got rid of most of the baseball teams and named everybody the Yankees and the Dodgers, it would no longer matter who wins. And great local rivalries (like Yankees vs Mets or Yankees vs Red Sox) would disappear. Who cares who beats who when it’s Yankees vs Yankees? And then the NY Yankees can take credit for the Boston Yankees success. Lol.

im honestly kinda surprised it took this long for another big name gym to come to florida... I know there are a bunch of smaller programs obviously. But the location doesnt surprise me, orlando and the surrounding areas have seen a massive boom in population, that doesnt seem to be slowing down.

As a native Houstonian, it's still weird seeing Woodlands Elite Ohio haha.

Magic All Stars in California is closing.

Was this gym the "magic" part of Pacific Coast Magic? Their worlds team is called Fantasy, and PCM had a Fantasy, I'm wondering if that's a coincidence.

Yes, it's the same gym. There used to be Magic All Stars and Pacific Coast Cheer, they merged many years ago, then Magic All Stars split back off a few years ago.

This reminded me of all the arguments with Troy on here and I'm laughing. Pretty sure it was all about crossed leg doubles... Sad for Magic though. I hate seeing smaller, successful gyms closing.
