GRAND CHEER ALL-STARS

A brief overview of comeptitive cheerleading today....

     Cheerleading has evolved quite a bit since it first came around in the 1920's. It began as an all-male program that in a few short decades has spread to almost ever school, college and university across the nation and even world-wide. In the last decade the world of cheerleading has grown into an well-organized sport with opportunities for all ages and ability levels. Recreational cheerleaing programs like those offered in local communities through football programs and other sports are fun and a great introduction to the basics of cheerelading. Jr. High, High School and College cheerleading programs do their best work supporting the schools and athletes they represent. A lot of these programs have begun to offer competitive teams and many colleges offer scholarships for these athletes. Competitive Cheerleading is the sport that cheerleading has evolved into.

     Today All-Star (competitive) cheerleading is common in every state and is now practiced in dozens of countries around the world. Because of its popularity it the sport has been divided and sub divided into several different divisions and levels. The divisions: Tiny, Mini, Youth, Junior, & Senior, refer to the age of the athletes on the team. Age for this season is based on how old the athlete will be as of August 31st 2011. Levels refer to the ablilty of the athletes competing. Competitive Cheerelading is split into 6 different levels of ability with level 1 being the easiest level and 6 being the most difficult.
