All-Star Hardest Worlds Division

[cheersdominique]

What's the hardest level 5 division for a new team to become competitive in? I know it's never easy no matter what division you're in, but is there a hardest?

Small senior could be considered one since there are so many teams in that division.

LARGE ALL GIRL

correct me if im wrong, but didnt small senior have the largest number of teams in the division this year? i feel like that alone makes it one of the hardest divisions.

 

[vipergirl]

i agree, i say small senior due to the amount of teams...not that there is any easy division at worlds like you said! :)

 

[iluvcheer]

Definitely small senior, since there are so many teams( as said before ).

 

[Angelica]

Small senior. Honestly I never know whos going to win that one. Especially after this past season..

I'm going to go against the majority here and say it's most difficult for a team to become a powerhouse in the unlimited or "large coed" division. Think about it. It is incredibly difficult to find that many guys to join a team, let alone teach them the stills to beat out the current top teams in that division. Many teams field good a competitive small senior, small limited, and large limited teams. There are only a handful of truly competitive unlimited teams.

 

[Hi! It's me!]

add to small sr, small limited for the same reason. And truthfully I think the international divisions are hard just because only 3 teams advance.

 

[Angelica]

International yes! I believe that's hard as well. But small sr wins it for me. So so much talent in that division

I am going to go with International, yes there are a lot of teams in small senior but only the top 3 make it to finals. So the chances of making it to finals are really small.

Adding to my earlier post, I would add that some gyms can field an unlimited team. But how many ones can field a truly competitive one? I think the switch to large coed will help level this out.

 

[garretttt]

hmm id go with large senior.

sure small senior has a ton of teams, but top 3 and even top 10 is a mix up each year.

BUT, it would be harder to beat sr elite, stars, and f5 in large senior than it would be to place 10 in small senior.

 

[supajag]

....all of them

I think your answer also is determined by what you consider to be 'competitive.' Is 'competitive' having a shot at winning? Making the top half percent of the division? Making top 3? Are we talking which division is hardest to field a team in? Or are we assuming you could make any team and which would be hardest for the first 3 questions (winning, top half, top 3)?

Winning: Large Senior, Large Coed, International, Sm Coed, Sm Senior
Top Half: International Coed 5
Top 3: Large Senior, International Coed 5, Sm Coed

Why these ones? Looking at last years Worlds, the top 3 for large senior are VERY well established in their top 3 spots. Spice and Tsu have done an EXCELLENT job in bringing some competition to a very repetitive division. Large Coed is hard to field and has some VERY strong coed programs that are hard to shake. International in GENERAL is a tough division because you're constantly being cut and even then you only get top 3 to finals. Never mind the fact that there are some RIDICULOUSLY strong programs leading that division. Sm Coed's scores at Worlds for top 2 were leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else, from what I remember. Getting that elusive top 3 spot is a challenge when the top 2 are SO strong. Small Senior has such a deep division that getting anywhere decent in it is a huge feat, never mind beating a multiple world champion for the top spot. Every mistake in that division counts HUGE.
