I have a question (or two about GA cheer). HS teams are not allowed to compete at UCA or NCA nationals, correct? What if they didn't take part in any Georgia HS cheer competitions (I know state is a hugeee deal in GA), would they be allowed to compete at a nationals then?What states classify cheer as a sport?
The state of GA classifies it as a sport AFAIK and it has not hurt cheer here (see current World Large Senior Champs).

It's a sport in SC and governed under the high school league. And because of this SC teams are not allowed to compete at UCA/NCA/anywhere out of state.
Probably. Of course it's a huge drawback to not be able to compete in national competitions but it is nice to have the high school competition season wrapped up completely before allstar season kicks in to full gear. The state championship is in mid-November so it allows most cheerleaders to do both if they want.I would think for high schools that do go to NCA UCA they would have less interest in allstars.
Texas as a whole should be ignored. That state is cheer crazy and NCA is in house.
I wonder if the private schools will be under this rule as well? I hope not... a former teammate of mine coaches in Long Island and those girls KILL at UCA.I would love to watch a NCA/UCA high school national competition where every state was eligible.
There are so many amazing UCA teams from NY. (and maybe NCA too? I don't really keep up with NCA HS) It would be a shame for them to become ineligible. Especially as a result of trying to legitimize the activity as a "sport".
