Worlds Schedule Posted

Date: Wed Apr 19 10:02 AM, 2006

Just wondering if West Coast Mavericks is going to be a part of CheerGyms.com next season?

Date: Wed Apr 19 10:34 AM, 2006

Staying on subject of Worlds...

The following teams are NOT listed on the schedule released by USASF. Have to assume they decided not to go, although they received unpaid bids. Or maybe the listing on USASF is wrong as to who received bids. Surprised some of these teams aren't going. Can someone confirm if Georgia Elite, Encore, Kentucky Elite, Stingrays, and Top Gun, and Lonestar actually got bids in the categories listed below?

Small Sr:
-Nebraska All Stars
-Georgia Elite
-New Zealand All Stars

Large Sr:
-Encore
-Kentucky Elite
-Buckeye Cheer Elite
-Planet Spirit Thunder

Small Coed
-Tumblebeez
-Stingrays
-Top Gun
-Basics Superstars
-Champion Cheer OUtlaws
-Central Mississippi

Large Coed
-Texas Lonestar
-Tampa Bay All Stars
-Clovis Elite
-Midwest Cheer Elite
-Cheer City United
-Colegio San Antonio-Venezuala

Does anyone know what the "Special Performances" listed on the Sunday schedule are? Very interesting and has my curiousity going.

Worlds Watcher, the special performances last year were special needs teams (ie Kentucky Elite Show Cats, etc.). That may be what it is for this year too.

Top Gun is #18 on the Sm CoEd preliminaries order.

Wonder what happened to the others? Maybe they have a no paid bid, no go policy, or had difficulty raising the money. Interesting....

Why would you ask if they are going to be part of cheergyms? Just because they are being supportive and wishing luck to cheergyms does not mean they are going to be part of it. Mavericks have two owners that do a great job with the program.

Pride Coach, thanks for the info. That would be great to see a large attendance of Special Needs performances. I've heard they are great to watch so I'm looking forward to this section of the competition.

I'm pretty sure the special performances are to allow the international teams (and maybe others) that don't make finals an opportunity to perform twice.

Special needs teams aren't performing at Worlds and actually didn't last year either. You can find them at most other competitions, though. I'm Director of the USASF Special Needs committee and we now have more than 70 special needs teams in 25 states and more than 25 gyms currently scheduled to add teams this year (including one of the cheergyms).

For a list of FAQ's, please see www.usasf.net and click on the link about starting a special needs team.

Acedad, thanks for the correction. I must have been confusing UCA nationals with Worlds. Sorry! Too many competitions and they run together a bit! And thanks for the work you do with special needs cheerleading. We are just putting together a special needs team at our gym, and its amazing for sure.

Hey Jodi, not sure I was worried about everything being secret. Sometimes these things just leak out, huh!

Yes, but it is fun to have a "secret idenity" like a super hero. I personally would like to be able to fly!
