It seems that Simi Valley Cheer Force is quickly getting a bad name in the All Star World. I find that very sad since their owner, Becky Herrera has long been one of the most respected people in the business. I wonder what has happened to change the tide.

Personally, I won't be voting for you. Saying that taking GSSA "won't be a problem" in front of a group of NOR CAL coaches was uncalled for and disrespectful....

Best of Luck to the kids though!

Wow, very rude! I'll vote for you! Illusions was up for it last year and I'm sure no one said that about cheergyms even though a lot of my kids and parents cosistantly complain about how rude cheergyms girls and parents can me be sometimes. I'm sure my girls and parents can be rude too sometimes. People are rude without even noticing it. But, you basically saying you're going to be honest and than the next post is about Simi Valley getting a bad name. wow, thats really rude and hopefully you guys are aren't apart of cheergyms.com because that is very upsetting to see someone write something so disrespectful and rude. Think about it if the roles were reversed!

Does it seem that the closer we get to this comp. the more stressed some people are getting, can we all just relax some......

I really dont think that was said at all. I actually took some of my kids to watch Power, so they can see its gonna be a real tough comp. and we really need to get back in the gym and bust our butts.

Sorry for any misunderstandings.......

Sometimes people dont mean to be rude they just talk before they think. I know I am guilty of this. Every cheer gym has people that say rude things, but the majority of the members of said gym are really nice , fun loving people who just want to see their child perform.

well today at my pracitce for diamondz my coach sat there and told us its not going to be a stroll in the park that the teams going are going to be amazingly good and the best is going to win and if another team wins they deserve it they worked their butts off to get it.....hmmmm doesnt sound like we got this to me coach shawn knows that the gyms are going are going to be toguh to beat hes saying this is probally going to be the hardest comp we go to unless we make worlds then it willb e the second but seriously bashing our organization for somehting that was never said come on our gym teaches to be respectful to others if someone says somehtign to us thats negative at a comp we are told to bite our lips and let it pass i do it all the time. but gssa cant we all just relax have fun and bring ur best to teh comp i want the true best team in cali to go to worlds i want flawless routines the winner i want to be the true winner no regrets dont beat urself two sayings u never want to say i should of i could of just bring ur best adn let the best team win

Would everyone please please please stop commenting on any program as being rude etc. You cannot say this as a whole about any program. There are and always will be people who have no class, speak out of turn and are down right rude. This is everywhere in life, not just cheerleading and sports. That being said. I have met people I like from other programs and people I think are rude. I have met parents from cheer gyms who I would never sit next to as they do not represent the entire program in a good manner. Anyone who thinks their program is without rude parents or cheerleaders is crazy. Now I do believe owners, coaches, directors, parents and cheerleaders can set an amazing example. This starts with the owners setting the tone of their program. Morton and Danny set an amazing example! There will always be those few people out there who ruin for others. So, as we come to the close of the season and you see or experience a rude person, remember this is one, two or maybe three people from an entire program.
