A thousand times yes on this! As being personally involved in a situation like this, and seeing it totally implode, I cannot agree more! Just because you are the best coach/choreographer does not by any stretch mean you have the capability of owning a successful All Star Gym.
And they said they 'might' even tell us the name of the city.
*brushes up on state flowers, agriculture, and import/exports incase they give us hints*
It's going to be like "Portland" and not tell us if it's Oregon or Maine. (I don't think it's either of those locations, but I wouldn't be surprised if they give the city name and we still have 5 options in the running.)
I decided you were right and that Seattle is out, then I realized Auburn. Clawburn. Perfect. And none of ya'll (already working on my Texan) know where Auburn, WA is, so it would be a fun surprise. Lol
LOL sadly I was thinking this way too. They already have Clawstin so they can't add a Clawston for Houston. There's also an Auburn, NY right down the road from me ;) there's 3.
But it would have to be north of Charlotte too... Of course it could be 2 miles north of them as well ;)All they said was north, it could be 2 miles north of the Plano location for all we know lol

It makes me nervous if it's anywhere in MO to be honest... My former gym is growing so so much but I think if CA were to come here people might go just because it's a big name. Columbia is right in the middle so it would only be a two hour commute to either. If it was in Jeff City (it's not, obviously, but it could've been) I think it would be a huge problem for them. BUT I doubt it would be Missouri (also hope it's not lol, unless they go to like Springfield or something).I can honestly say this makes me nervous if it's in KC. I coach at a gym in the KC area, and we've had a really successful season. It would really suck to lose a bunch a kids that wouldn't have left otherwise just because a shiny new big name gym comes to town. It would really hurt our gym, so I'm really hoping KC isn't where CA plans to open. We have lots of smaller gyms (no big names) that would probably be destroyed by this. I believe that KC Cheer and my gym are the only two with D1 summit bids in the KC area (Tumble Cheer has a D2 bid), so it would really really hurt gyms here. I am anxiously awaiting the announcement.

ETA: Cheer Eclipse, ICT Legacy, and The Cheer Pitt compete in KC quite a bit and compete well nationally. But unless parents/athletes are willing to drive 2-3 hours to go to CA KC (hypothetically speaking of course) I don't think they would feel a hit in numbers because of a big name in the KC area. Unless they have kids commuting from here to there already, but I don't think they do.
ETA (again):
Worlds bids. KC Cheer is the only local gym with a full pid bid (Fierce 5), and the only one with two worlds teams (Fearless). Cheer Eclipse has an at large and KCAC has an at large but that's it. I could see R5 teams getting hit pretty hard and I imagine that any kids not on Fierce 5 would probably at least consider jumping ship.
Again, all of this is hypothetical.
Definitely, it would be something new for us and to also stir up the competition lol.As a former Pittsburgh athlete, I would LOVE to see CA in the 'burgh! I would be very interested to see how a gym with such a huge name would shake things up! Pittsburgh has SO much talent in both cheer and dance.
PotatoCats - Clearly the name of the parent team. Sign me up - I'm so down for that.I'm Curious to Know what type of "Cat" names will be associated with the new gym. If in fact the location is in the Midwest-maybe names like Corncats, potato cats, ect....

I was born there. :-)
