I think what the previous post about Josh was referrring to was when he coached A & J and yelled and cussed at those kids terribly.  Many of those kids were young and not 18 at all.

Most importantly, I think ALL the girls are looking forward to and need a fresh start and moving on. I'm sure everyone is exhausted with the sour apples from the last year. Lets focus on what we are really here for. The girls / boys are all good kids for the most part and even though we have to dig a little deeper to find the good in some more than others, the bottom line is they are ALL good kids who just want to succeed in cheer.

Las Vegas eNVy - Good luck to you and all involved, I know you will have an amazing year with many more to follow.

Amen to that.

 

Puma Power do you even know half the people on the international co-ed level 5 team? Cuz I do and they are not all over 18 and cheer fan is absolutely right he shouldnt be talking to these kids that way. He was owner the team didnt ask him to coach anything his wouldnt allow anything less . And you keep saying he will be the first person you take your child to yet the bottom of your posts says las vegas eNVy rocks. So which is it coach cristy or pride and josh make a choice and make it fast. Thank you

I think the meeting was a great suucess! Our Element family is a strong one and I think the Pride family showed up strong and united as well. Bringing the two together with a positive attitude is going to be a key ingredient, but from what I saw at the meeting, it looked like we have the cream of the crop coaches, and the cream of the crop kids and I don't see anything but positive things down the road!
We warmly welcome all of you into our family and as far as the question raised regarding who is kind of running things? I think Nikci and Christi made that clear, that it was them jointly doing this. I heard them say that Christi was coaching level 5 sr and jr so it sounds like they are already doing what is best for the gym by sticking to what they all do best! Christi got your teams to worlds, so she obviously knows how to run a level 5 team the best. About the question of tumbling coach competence , are you kidding me? Have you not heard of Tracey? You are all lucky to be able to work with her, just ask anyone who has ever had the opportunity! I am sure it will all be overwhelming at first to her and everyone else, but after the chaos dies down and the true training starts, whoa!!!! As far as what else will be offered? You know your other coaches specialties, but Nikci is level 4 brilliance, and Katie cannot be topped in the youth programs!  We hear Tenay and Kimsy rock at anything levels 2 and 3, so where do we not have anything covered?
I for one and everyone I have talked to, said we thought the coaches all handled the meeting well and effectivley answered all of our questions. I left the meeting feeling extremely positive about the coming year! To anyone still on the fence, all you need to do is come and give eNVy a try, you will love it here! Good Luck to everyone! eNVY is going to be amazing!!!!! 

i think this year is going to be amazing at eNVy!
the coaches are amazing and i hope everything come together so that we are the best team that las vegas has ever had!

Each program has its strengths and weaknesses, much like each coach. What upsets me about your post is that you state one individual took our teams to worlds. I feel that is false. It takes a program to make it to worlds, from the parents who pay and give their time, to the other teams who give level 5 its prestige, to the 20 individuals on that team, to all the coaches that worked with them, to the owners who made sure they were able to compete. Don't try to take that away from everyone who made it a success. The only thing that will come from this "split" will be two rebuilding programs. The scales don't tip in anyone's favor. Once the honeymoon is over the only ones who wil benefit from this are the other programs in Las Vegas because of the fact they will be working hard to compete against the rest of the nation where we will be stuck trying to best each other. I wish the new program the best and good luck with everything. The unknown is a scary idea to place all your eggs.

 

Many of you know I may be young but that I have learned a lot in my time and one thing I have learned is divided talent is not full talent. Another thing I've learned to do not only in cheer but in life is to look at the facts and stats and then make my decisions. The numbers still read like this:

P.A.C. has a dedicated staff of 11 cheer coaches and 3 tumbling coaches all happy and ready to not only improve their athlete's skills but also to help them grow as people.

P.A.C. has the largest cheerleading facility in the state of Nevada still boasting two full size spring floors, a tumble strip, a tumble trak, a 6 panel hard floor( to prepare for school cheer and college) and wall to wall mirrors.

P.A.C. has a full time office staff ready to answer your questions and to give out information.

P.A.C. has a one, three, five, year plan and is here for the long haul as our saying says Ain't no stopping us now!

P.A.C. has the backing to ensure we are around for years to come.

P.A.C. feels that it is a program effort to be successful and that when each team does well it isn't just those members or those coaches that make it possible but the program as a whole from the mini's to the level 5 to the owners. Without one piece there would be no sweet success.

P.A.C. is a family and will always be a family. I will still know everyones name and most of their parents names and will remember the ones who came before them.

P.A.C. is and will become fun

P.A.C. is my home.

I know the feelings are divided and lost but take a step back and look at the facts and the ideals of the program. I hope to see you at the P.A.C. Informational Meeting and BBQ where will have a meet the staff, open forum questions, and a general overview of the program this year and the direction of the program for the future.

From everything we hear, nothing that has come out of the mouths of "those in charge" at Neusport has been the truth , a shred of honor or honesty, financial stability or anything good and moral. No thanks, I don't think anyone cares to hear what they "have to say" anymore. They blew it! The kids are already blending and are excited to start a new family together at a stable gym! Good Luck to you though!
