A new season brings a return to some old divisions, another round in the same ones...and some new ones too.

I'm honestly happy that LJ got a deduction for that uniform.
I don't think the penalty is enough, but at least competitions are making a statement about appropriate uniforms. Hopefully this will be a wake up call for programs to stop designing costumes.

If your flyer falls, do not force them to continue going.
Do not yank them or throw them up into the routine.

Andy Simon's channel gave me the ability to watch cheer when we couldn't afford a subscription.
It gave me the opportunity to show cheer to others easily.
Having access to it saved my life by bringing me joy when I was in an incredibly dark place.
I have no words. None.

Also, just a reminder, if you're at NCA, please don't overwhelm athletes on well-known teams.
Athletes are there on a business trip. It's not a meet and greet. Please be respectful of their time and space.
Please don't be upset if an athlete denies your request for a picture.

Y'all have to give her her well-deserved flowers.

As cheerleaders, we are told to finish the routine short of death. To keep going no matter what.
However, if an athlete is on the floor, visibly injured and not getting up, the reaction should not be to pick up the athlete and continue. You should be trying to stop the routine.

IMO, a former athlete/coach of a program publicly implying about/commenting on the actions of a child half their age is not a good look (for yourself or your program).
Probably should have sat this one out and let things play out. No need to insert yourself.

Send-offs are not for the people on the internet (unless the gym wants to post it)
Send-offs are meant for friends, family and the program.
Just because it's not posted on the internet doesn't mean it isn't a send-off.

What kills me is that the header are other athletes. It's a reflection on CA. And it's not a good one.

I don't see this as unsolicited advice. It's different from a random athlete commenting on someone's form/technique.
Former backspot was trying to be helpful to the backspot transitioning into the stunt group.
All the new backspot had to do was say "thanks" and move on.

How coaches treat their athletes says a lot about a program.
Be up front with your athletes. Don't string then along if you're not planning on incorporating them into the team. Make your intentions clear from the jump.
Don't disrespect your athletes and waste their time.

You don't know her situation. She may only be age eligible for an open team (ie Non-Tumbling). Or she can stunt at a higher level.
Placing athletes is like a puzzle, and multiple factors are considered.
Don't bring another athlete down because you're upset about your placement.

Gyms are always going to have team names that are feminine-leaning.
How you identify is your business.
But don't expect a gym to change a team name or demand a team name change because an athlete identifes a particular way.
How you identify is not indicative of the team name

**Also: usually flyers on international teams are older and their bodies are different. A 20+ year old athlete is not going to look the same as a athlete just reaching puberty.

PSA: if your flyer (god forbid) somehow ends up landing on their head or neck on the floor: DO NOT TOUCH OR MOVE THEM.

Hot take, but it's wrong to expect or pressure athletes/families to quit a team or leave a program immediately following revelation of alleged abuse.
Especially in this situation with under a month left until worlds, these athletes would be throwing away their entire season.

Worlds this year was insane. And not in a good way.

TBH, it shouldn't matter what color your bag is. If gyms want to control that, they should make purchasing program bags mandatory.

@tglcaf
IDC how good/solid your stunts are. If a flyer has a hard shell cast, the flyer shouldn't be in the air. A brace, maybe: but that depends on clearance from a doctor.
There are too many variables: you could fall and aggravate the injury more, or injure a base or another athlete.

As the US doesn't do lower level open teams (excluding o4) there's no good way to enter the sport late outside of NT
