It says levels 1 - 5 on their site.

Why would they put level 5 on there?

The level 5 divisions that aren't offered at Worlds will be offered at the International Championship of Divisions (or whatever they're calling it).

I'm wondering about that too. I see a lot of teams qualifying.

Here's a line from the article I'm confused about:

"In addition, one team from each qualifying event will be granted a paid bid for registration fees, a $4,500 value."

So one team from each qualifying competition gets to have their fees paid, and fees are $50 for first place, $70 (I think) for 2nd, $90 for third. So if you have a team with 30 members, for example, and you win the paid bid which just pays for your registration fees, isn't that just a savings of $1500? I'm confused, where does the $4,500 come from?

No! I wan't worlds to remain level five and only level 5. That way it is more of an honor than just a competition.

The regular registration fee is $125, if you are the one team that receives a fully paid registration bid then the savings could potentially be $125 X 36 members = $4,500.

To the anonymous poster that wants Worlds to remain level 5 only. It is remaining level 5 only. This is NOT Worlds. It's finally more like the national most of us say we want...you have to earn a bid and there's only ONE.

Are they having junior coed 5 in la and georgia? I'm thinking that since it's offered in florida at worlds, that it won't be offered..

You actually could make some money really since 1st place bid teams only need to pay $50 each for registration. $50 * 36 = 1800. The remaining $2700.00 goes to the team. You can apply that to coaches, travel or anything else.

Why does it matter what kind of car your coach drives?

And even if they do drive a mercedes who cares? Sorry but at most gyms, the parking lots are filled with BMW's, Yukons, Denali's and Lexus automobiles, so if a gym owner puts their time in , THEY DESERVE IT. I am so sick of people always punishing success. Your whole entire life you are always pushed to be best at something and be successful and you do that then people come out of the woodwork and talk about you for everything YOU earned. Sorry, it wasn't YOU working long nights, building a gym, starting from nothing or doing any of the work.

hey all dont even repsond to the mercedes comment. it is so silly.
