Last weekend the largest and most prestegious cheerleading competition was held at Disney's Wide World of Sports. It is called The Cheerleading Worlds. Thousands of competition cheerleading squads travel hours just to attend, and hopefully bring back the gold. Teams like Maryland Twisters, Stringray All-Stars, Cheer Extreme, California All-Stars, and World Cup hope to defend their titles and defend their spot. This year in the "Large Senior All Girl" division, the ladies of Senior Elite were crowned as the world champions. "I was really shocked" said Adriana Mier a TopGun cheerleader. "I thought Maryland Twisters had it in the bag."
Once The Cheerleading Worlds comes to an end, that means the cheerleading season comes to an end. Tryouts for gyms across the country begin to start, and teams learn new routines for the coming season. I wonder what the new cheerleading season will hold. Every year teams get better, uniforms are changed, and new tricks are made up. With the new USASF cheerleading rules, teams are going to have to tone it down a bit. Some tumbling is now restricted and the uniform policy is changing. In a few years more rules by the USASF will be implemented. So this upcoming season will be very interesting, and I honestly can't wait!
Worlds is such an intense competition that all cheerleaders wish to attend. I agree, i honestly thought Maryland Twisters F5 was going to bring home the gold, but Cheer Extreme deserved it. They hit an almost perfect routine with no stunt wobbles or touch downs in tumbling, whereas F5 had a few of those mistakes. My goal is to compete at Worlds. Can't wait to see the new cheer routines next season at Worlds 2013!
