I have a question, my daughters are allstar cheerleaders in a community with several all-star gyms and some of the gyms have Worlds level teams while others do not. At most of our gyms with world level teams they request that girls only cheer for football, since basketball is more time consuming and is during all stars busiest competition period. At one of our local high schools the cheer coach is affilated with one the of all star teams that do not have world level teams and she is requiring that all cheerleaders cheer for both football and basketball, which this basically eliminates anyone that cheers at a gym another than hers, which does not have this policy or she can work practices scheduels around both. She is also holding tryouts, clinics and some practices at her own gym and requiring tumbling there (knowing again that if a girl is at another allstar gym, it is frowned upon to tumble anywhere but your own gym), not the school. Also since they will be practicing off school grounds, the girls will have to find thier own transportation to her gym to practice I was just wondering what your opinion is on this and if you think this is common nowadays. I would not have a problem with the high school team tumbling at another local gym, but it just seems to me that this is just a way for her to profit on her own business and elimintate anyone that does not cheer for her program.
