The GA twitter said nothing about All American Scholar all they said was ESPN was paying for 20 boys to cheer. Jamie and several of the other athletes tweeted the same thing. I just find it strange that ESPN would pay for only males to cheer. I have no problem with handing out scholarships, but if ESPN isn't really involved then that is basically lying to get athletes to your gym.
I googled All American Scholar and ESPN which lead me to this:
Academic All-America - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CoSIDA's Capital One Academic All-America® Program - CoSIDA
I am calling their bluff.

All the double-full scholarship in the world doesn't seem to be helping these teams win worlds...might I suggest you start from the bottom up?

Wait is this what they are talking about?
Pop Warner - All-American Scholar Program
Theses are the only programs I am finding. GA isn't a pop warner team nor a university team so I don't see any program that they would be participating in.

I couldn't find the original tweet from back in March but they ran an Ad in Atlanta Cheer Magazine that said something about their partnership with All American Scholar and ESPN etc...
But you're correct during the tryout drama the only thing they tweeted was ESPN. I don't know if any of the GA staff have been in here but at this point I really think its a non-issue. Those that went, went those that didn't are still at thier home gym. False advertising or not, what's done is done at this point.
Right now I'm just interested in seeing what all the Atlanta area Level 5 teams put out there this coming season. Peach, Orange, T-Birds, GA and even ATA and Trinity should all be interesting to watch by the time December rolls around.

Yeah I just found the ad in the ATL cheer magazine
I am just really curious about this program and how GA got involved with it...

????? Couldn't tell you for sure but if it's scholorship based they would have had to apply thru there booster club, non-profit to non-profit. Other then that, Jamie is well connected so it wouldn't surprise me if he found out about it thru one of his connections and then applied. But again just speculation.
Current issue has an article on GA and mentions the scholorship so I would assume they got some kind of proof from GA about it. IMO

I thought there was an ACE in Columbus? We use to live on Ft. Benning and my cp went to an ACE gym for a while, but maybe it was in Atlanta and I was immune to the drive! :p

There was but they closed it up and just left Preachtree City as the only ACE gym in GA. If I'm not mistaken they moved the Columbus location across the boarder into AL but I would assume ACEDAD would know better on that.

It closed :( I got really sad when I moved here in September and heard that it was no longer open. I don't cheer but I really wanted to go see the gym and maybe buy a shirt.

CheerDadof2 ztaprincess I guess I should do a better job keeping up with my GA cheer! We've been away for about 10 years and have moved 5 times, so I tend to forget thing not in use at the moment. ...:eek:

So I was just browsing the Premier Athletics website.. and found this on Michigan Xtreme's part of it (at least this one isn't just level 5 boys).

Yea, when I lived in IL there where a few teams that always touted boys don't pay.
As for ATL/GA area cheerleading changing.... I couldn't say from before I moved down but has definately been on of the most interesting tryout seasons I've ever been in.

If you're not to far away you can drive up to Peachtree City, the gym there is all ACE'd out. Plus you can buy a 21B1H shirt by e-mail or paypal, something like that but it's not a regular ACE shirt so..... Check on the ACE of Atlanta section for the shirt info.
