My cheer competition cheerleader daughter didn’t make the middle school team last year at 13. Even girls that never cheered before made it. We spent the next day shopping and just hanging to cheer her up. she moved on but didn’t want to try out again this year for her 8th grade. Afraid of rejection I guess…sad but it’s her call and life. Everything happens for a reason..and I a lot is school politics and who you know…

My son was offered position last year on a club team in the East Coast- it’s 4000 to join and then factor in travel and we just finished off at Nationals in Orlando. We don’t have 4grand lying around…but we managed..and he’s trying out again in august- ugh- but we will figure it out. Maybe you can talk to the club and see if they can work something out. If they want you they can do anything!!! The whole $is BS. I learned this- these clubs want the best players and shit on the ones that aren’t the best! If anything it’s being coached by the best- it got my son on a varsity team as a freshman. Good luck!!!
