Didn't Spirit of Texas get a paid bid at ACA nationals a few weeks ago, along with CA panthers?

Cheer Athletics Jags also have an At Large bid from American Grand

You are correct, SOT's small coed received a paid bid.

So what's with Worlds Watcher? Sounds like she fell asleep these past weeks! Sorry, I'll edit the post when I get on a computer that allows me to use the full edit tools. Looks like I had SOT in Unlimited Coed on my spreadsheet. I'll try and do better with the upcoming bid races. It should keep my typing fingers busy.

I know there was some confusion on the American Grand bids. Can someone confirm the bids for that competition? This is what I have:

Paid Bids:
-CheerForce Diamonds
-Georgia All Stars Unlimited Coed

At Large Bids:
-California All Star Small Sr
-Cheer Athletic Panthers Large Sr
-California All Stars Unlimited Coed

International Open Coed
-CheerForce Rockiez

International Jr All Girl
-CheerForce Alcatraz

Here is a summary of how many teams are going for bids:

There are a total of 36 teams in 4 Sr divisions. If you subtract the 7 teams that already have paid bids, 29 of those teams will be going for 4 paid bids. There are 11 teams that already have @large bids, so 18 of the teams are going for the 8 @large bids. There are 6 teams in the Int'l divisions, 5 of those teams are going for the 4 @large bids. How do you like those odds? Especially in the Int'l divisions. Only 1 of those teams won't get a bid.

Sweet for those who have figured out how to take advantage of a division (International) whose rules make absolutely no sense at all as far as who can compete in it. I'm surprised more teams don't try for bids in it. Why not?

I'm also surprised that more gyms that have "college level 6 teams don't convert them to Int'l divisions. This is what GymTyme did and some of the other gyms. Add a few of those younger kids that have great level 5 skills onto the college teams, change the stunts to level 5 and BAM! You have a great Int'l team! Not that I think this was the purpose of the Int'l teams. In fact, I'm still trying to figure that one out.

Fierce Coach....I ditto your hopes! Those are my picks for sure. Can't wait to see!

Fierce Coach · GURU

Me too!!!! My NCA update people better be on top of calling me! You know who you are!!! Cause I need the low down. Why did they have to put Ga and NCA on the same weekend? Grrrrrrr.

OC Mom · GURU

I think that was poor business planning on both parties.

Fierce Coach · GURU

I I remember correctly... both NCA and CheerSport planned last years Nationals on the same weekend also.... but then one of them switched their date. This year they didn't seem to work together... anyone know why?
