All-Star Hardest Worlds Division

[BlueCat]

I was referring to a teams first time in the division, not first time at the championships.

CA, MT, and American were all large senior prior to the creation of worlds, so I didn't consider them entering a new division. And i just assumed Charlotte was Large senior. I have no idea what they were before the year they got silver.

I guess I still don't get your criteria. I must be reading it wrong. You are restricting it to teams that either were either created after 2004 or changed divisions after 2004? This would make Jags and Panthers "new" teams the years they won Small Senior?

Bottom line for me - I don't think there is a statistical way to fairly determine which division is "hardest".

They-Charlotte have always been Large Senior All Girl up until 06, then for 1 season they were small senior in 07, then for rest of the seasons after that Large Limited Coed... :fro:

I had no idea that cea and woodlands had small senior teams before then. so you can scratch those. And i didn't know that orange was large before they were small senior.
Even still, small senior had 4 top 3 finishers make the podium in their first year.

Nooo i meant first year at worlds in small senior, although im pretty sure orange was large at one point and silver was small senior.

My view is that it is easier to turn 20 people into level 5 athletes than 36. However, I think that small divisions are much harder because everyone has to participate in everything and doesn't get any breathers like large teams do. (Like in their longer tumbling sections)

i totally forgot about that! that was so long ago, i have never heard of silver, but i do believe i remember seeing a REALLY old video of orange back when they were large senior.
To answer the question-I dont think any division is any harder than the others. Breaking into the top three is hard in EVERY division. With small limited you have the stunters-if you cant stunt, you are basically in trouble with that division. In small senior you need to be clean. In large senior you need to have the difficulty. And in large coed you need to not only have all of those guys, but also teach real coed stunting. I believe every division is hard in it's own way.
