C'est tres chere pour les donner a tout les equipes, non? ;)
Well excuse your french...
I get that they want to be treated the same but i feel like it would be very difficult to rank considering its pretty hard to rank them when say your ranking children in a wheelchair compared to all able bodies. Or even a child who is deaf and blind compared to a higher functioning child. Just trying to put in a different perspective. :)
I never thought of it that way! I just know from my experiences through working with our special needs kids that some can't do much when it comes to hitting the score sheet because there mental and physical capabilities aren't strong enough.When I judge, I don't compare one team to another. I compare the team on the floor to the score sheet. So I won't be comparing a team with a kid in a wheelchair to a team with a kid who is blind (and some teams may have both!). What I'll be doing is looking at the team on the floor, and how well they hit the score sheet with the athletes they have. That means a team with 3 kids in wheel chairs may be able to score higher in stunting b/c of their creativity and ability to "think outside of the box" in terms of working with the abilities of their athletes.

I want to say Cheersport even awards then the Leather-style Level 5 jacket.I understand what you are saying, but I think the jackets would be a nice touch and would not cost Jamfest much. I am disappointed..I know Cheersport does give jackets to special needs teams. Thanks for answering my question.

The one issue I have with ranking is that I feel like it would be difficult to some degree? Based on the capabilities of what you're dealing with? I mean yes you judge them on their skills, but would you factor in those kids who need a presence on the floor for safety? If a coach volunteer has to help? There are certain logistics I'm not sure would work exactly? Or maybe I'm over-thinking..
Jackets should be there without question though..
