Does anyone have any experience with this? Sarah is interested, having met and talked with a couple girls who participate. I was a cheerleader in school but never did Pop Warner. The local Club is just too expensive as she'd have to take two separate classes, one in cheer and one in tumbling at $65 each.

Do they follow the local schoolyear schedule or is it summers-only? I know they send home notices through the schools, but that doesn't help us much!


Thanks!

My daughter did this years ago. It wasn't any more expensive than the rec
league football, baseball etc.

My daughter is on an All-Star National competition squad now. THAT costs BIG
money. About three or four thousand dollars a season, with uniforms, travel
expenses and gym fees.

Thank goodness they fund raise a big portion of it They compete in FL, SC, TX
and of course DC, MD and VA. So lots of travel adds up quickly.

Tumbling classes are important if she wants to cheerlead competitively later.
My girls didn't do gymnastics and then have had to "learn" to tumble at
later ages and it seems to take longer than when the younger ones learn it. Guess
the older you are, the more fear you have about throwing yourself over
backwards and landing on your feet.

Good luck, have FUN!
