Not all all. Just wondering what took them so long to announce it and why so many smart and creative people couldn't see it coming.

Were we supposed to do something to prevent this?

Because I don't have an X-Wing readily available to take up arms against the Death Star.

Im not going to lie, Im not seeing the bigger picture here, or seeing how this will affect people.
No sarcasm here, actually curious lol I am on Fierceboard a lot and follow competitions etc but I have been out of the all-star world too long to know the nitty gritty of what this all means.

@Tealxblack25 Monopolies are never good for customers!

 

[mstealtoyou]

@mstealtoyou Yes, they are. I worry in general about more comp. turning into stay to play. The stay to play is tough for me and my family.

Tough for all of us.

The signs have been there for many years. Many just chose to ignore them because they wanted to believe what they were told. Those who spoke up were labeled trouble makers, etc.

So what are you going to do when you have no options left and your clients are out-priced out of this cheerleading experience?

Power tumbling!!!

 

[cheertired]

Ugh. I knew it was coming, didn't think it would be this soon. Disappointing but expected. The lack of non-varsity higher grossing competition brands just keeps going down. Cheer really has turned into such a monopoly. :(

But the IEP's are still very much operative. They're still an option in the market for competitive events.

Y'all realize there's still like 70+ other USASF EP's and umpteen non-sanctioned EP's. Nfinity, Rebel, GK, etc are still huge non-EP companies also not owned by Varsity.

 

[Keep_Believing]

Question, next season if Varsity significantly increases the price/cost involved for both Varsity and Jam comp. what other options are there?

Does Nfinity, Rebel, GK, etc. run comp.?

Varsity has been a monopoly for sometime now. Can't go anywhere in the sport without it.
