It will only be new if they actually follow their own rule.
Wow this has become really really small. Majority of the divisions have only one team in them (automatic national champion) or only two (you either win or you lose)
The bids are really up for grabs. Most of the teams competing already have bids, and only a few are trying to get one I assume.
I don't think it's really about a paid or at large it's about hitting a good clean routine if the teams can do that then the outcome will be well deserved.
Cheerforce Black has a shot, West Coast Fury has a shot and West Coast Sm Sr. 5 has a shot but WC Sm Sr. has not been consistant all year.
So who knows lets just be positive. I wish all the teams the very best of luck. Im sure whoever gets the paid bid, there will be bashing on this site because it wasn't the team they wanted or thought deserved it.
So until then let's just wish everyone a great competition and the very best of luck.
You said west coast sm sr. 5 and wc sm sr. Im almost certain they only have one sm sr. They have a All Girl 6 international 5 coed. And a sm all girl 5

yeah I think she's talking about the same team ... west coast (wc) sm sr 5... that they have a chance but they haven't been consistent

I've never been a big fan of USA and have honestly had many problems with them and their competitions in the past. They are undergoing a lot of new and great changes to their company, from what I have heard. I hope that with new direction in certain areas that USA will be a great place to compete from now forward. I personally loooovvvvvvvveeee this new rule and I hope that it is stuck to. And I also hope that other competition companies look at this rule and consider adding it to their rulebook as well. For many reasons. : )
