We were at this competition last year and let me just say, it was a JOKE.

With regards to bids, from what I can gather it's pretty much UPA's discretion as to who they wanted to represent them at Worlds.
no, elite won grand champs. elite had the highest score of the whole competition and they didn't get the full paid. elite should have got it, then memphis, then nebraska tigers. everyone was in shock. this was the WORST competition I have ever been to. I have a very long list of complaints, but the biggest one of all is how the bids were obviously rigged. IMO they gave it to the gym that brought the most teams. more teams more money, and they wanted them to return next year. congrats to everyone though, but I wish I had been in dallas with the rest of the country.Memphis elite got an at large and they won?
no, another problem. seating was terrible. they looked awesome though.Does anyone have videos of Memphis Elite Jr Coed 5????
Absolutely. However, it was an extremely poor business decision because it went against results and scores, and it turned off a TON of programs to ever returning to UPA. I don't understand their thinking. I don't see the pro in that decision...just cons.

I'm glad my team won our level and I'm glad we made it into grand champions. But that's as far as it goes for how happy I was about that competition. UPA needs to figure out their lives if they expect people to keep coming back, but after what they pulled yesterday I highly doubt anyone is going to give them a second chance. Such shady business. I was in shock for at least a half hour after hearing who was getting that paid bid. It was sad to see a team who deserved it and worked hard for it get shot down. Elite definitely should have gotten it. Not a third place team who didn't even make it into the top 10 teams of the senior division. Its just not right. IMO.
thank you, i agree! but seriously, i dont care what team people are from, or if they were in dallas or at home, i would take it as a personal insult to the cheer world. while we fight for cheerleading to be a valid sport, they pull something like this?I don't know who you are, or where you're from. But I like you, and we should have sat together. haha
UPA needs to praise baby Jesus my teams werent there and had that happen. Id would still be in MN argueing and demanding justice be served! the RUDE in RUDAGS would have came out!
haha I would be the same way. I have to say Elite Cheer handled it in the most classy way they could have. They smiled, and clapped for the team that received it, and left when everyone else did. The coaches said that it was just going to make them work that much harder, which I'm not sure is what would be coming out of my mouth after that. haha
