ALSO, congrats to Royals for winning top program. I LOVE your routines and energy, I'm so sorry i missed out today and can't wait to see you all sometime this season.
A coach from our gym called me and told me you placed first in every one of your divisions and commented on how fierce you guys looked...JOB WELL DONE!
Can someone talk to us about the Coed divisions both 4 and 5. I am surprised to see that Motions took 2 to Royals.
There was only one team competing in each of the 2 level 5 divisions (Jr Coed and Sr Coed), so no results to discuss there - Cheer Odyssey (Sr) was awesome, didn't see the SWAT (Jr) routine.
Having attended many Jamz events this season, their scoring is VERY off. You see teams with near to no tumbling, OR horrible technique in tumbling place well ahead of teams who have near squad tumbling. 2nd of all I think they are just looking at stunts in the air versus how they look. Stunts should look solid and well executed and many of the teams winning are just a mess. I am not sure why they are rewarding that.
Agreed about the UCD snack area. It was horrible. Ran of out food, then their prices are sky high. More than a convention center, and the parking was even worse.
They need to have a school/Youth and all stars on differnet days. There was enough to both to rent out the facility. $15.00 to get in is ridicolous. I could even justify $8.00-$10.00 but 15.00 is HORRIBLE. I don't mind watching hip hop or dance if its just all star on one day. It would make each day shorter for everyone, not just all star teams.
It was a really good and tought division! Royals routine looke great, and Motions of course was off the chain (their pyramid finally hit). But somehow, A legiality wasnt caught on Royals (a double down from a one legged stunt), and they didnt get ANY deductions. I know the Motions coaches, and they took that 2nd place with pride and will probably raise the abr a little now. It was especailly shocking to hear that Royals coed 4 got the tumbling award!! Over Cheer Odyssey coed 5, Pyramdis Sr and Jr 4 and Motions Coed 4.....I watched all those teams, and let me tell you...that was not expected! It was a hilarious day...BECAUSE there were illegeal skills being thrown but they would still win, the wrond music would play, but the Jamz Staff would make them keep going and just do it over, teams literally running from the warm up room to perform on the floor with no time to breathe! I just hope someone sees all this and can relay the message to Marty and Julie!
i saw a girl on cheergyms.com college after they performed put a cast on can someone from cheergyms.com tell me what was going on with this?
I was not a fan of JAMZ yesterday way too lon of a comp. also why did motions perform twice?
yes there is a girl on college with a fractured hand and the first time motions went on the wrong music was played and they were allowed to go a second time.
great job to all cheergyms.com teams no matter what places/scores were given out you all looked great!

there is no way a legality like that wasn't caught call it what it is
I know a lot of gyms don't like having thier performances posted on You Tube but this is why I like to watch them. It seems after each JAMZ competition this same discussion crops up.

don't wait for them to see it. express your dilike and the horible experience you keep having to MARTY AND JULIE!!!
everyone get behind your gyms,parents and children and get to emailing writing documenting this unfair judging as well as the quality of the competitions. change will come but everyone has to speak out about it and stand by what you say.
I cheer for royals and yes one of our fliers accidentally over rotated in her cradle, our coach tells us when we get off how things went and we all knew this happened.. after comp she did take it to the judges to let them know..We love cheergyms and Morton, some of us used to be on cheergyms..and wntd to let the judges know there was a missed penalty.. I think motions is amazing and swat was good too! Overall everone great job Cheer odyssey Rocks! Motions are sOOO amazing! and Hip hop was good TOO! And thank u coach B for ur nice comments! We love odyssey!!!
It's hard to convey sarcasm through text so I'll just warn you that it's coming. This comp was HILARIOUS!
It was "hilarious" because the whole competition was a JOKE!!!! One big, expensive joke. Can't wait for the You Tubes to come out so everyone can see for themselves. You all be the judge!
