Cheergyms is a large corporation. Pyramids is the only large gym out of all of them. The rest of the gyms are fairly small.
coach: please keep in mind wrote: Please keep in mind, new gyms mostly take MANY years to become large. For example cheergyms.com. So if a gym isn't making under a name and decides to change names, there is nothing wrong with that. Usually there is something behind them changing a name (new owner and much more). I've seen a lot of small gyms go out there and kick some butt against large gyms. Remember, it has nothing to do with SIZE. It amazes me when I see a team beat out all the large gyms. Usually the gyms become so large that the coaches can't give each team the amount of support, direction, and coaching as compared to a small gym. Another factor that falls in, is that large gym get so caught up with winning that they get cockey in which leads them to failure ( not all large gyms ). I bet yall think I'm a coach at a small gym too, well, I'm not. I just know many coaches at small gyms that do amazing well. They've even beat some of my teams. Cheers to all the small and large gyms for keeping their pride under control, it will get you far in life.
I agree, changing names, colors and sometimes mascots is a sign that the gym is trying to change. People, coaches, and gym owners are allowed to grow up, mature and make better decisions. I think its admirable and good because it shows maturity and you really want to succeed.
One other thing is , as these gyms open and close, its important to remember that its not good when a team stops or shuts down. It lowers the level of comeptition and makes it harder to find other teams to compete against. Remember all star teams survive off of other teams. I know some gym owners just want other people's kids, but if gyms start shutting down, then your left with hardly anyone to compete against, unless u go to nationals which is only once or 2 times a year.
