Hey Guys and Dolls- Blogger Allie

Hey Guys and Dolls !!


It’s been an extra long month with three and a half hour long practices 5x times a week! 
But, it totally paid off because my Senior 3 team has finally got an At Large Bid for the Quest !!! That means all 4 of our teams are going to Disney !!!

This Bid means alot to us because it has been a very hard season for Sr3. Even though it's been tough, we completely shine on !!! What can I say but the performance rec senior 3 division, everyone is soooo talented ❤️ it’s incredible to watch the other teams this season, but the count down is on now. We have 18 more days until all these talented teams go down to Disney and show off what we have worked for all season long. The Quest !!!!

Blogger Alexis- 2-5-2020


Hello my fellow cheerleading fanatics!

Again my name is Alexis Barkley and I cheer for Cheer Trixx Athletics near Blairsville Pennsylvania. I am writing today to give you an update on how much our gym has been slaying.

 In my last blog post I wrote how we were going to be traveling to Cleveland Ohio to compete at the CCC Double Down competition. Since then we have went on to compete at Americheer in Pittsburgh and Shout! in Slippery Rock. Below is a list all of our achievements from these three competitions. Our next couple adventures are CCC Red Hot at Slippery Rock, followed by American Masters in Buffalo New York, directly followed by Battle at the Capitol in Washington DC, and then a little break before we head off to THE ONE!

In my last blog I explained mainly who I am and who I cheer for. Today I want to take time to focus on what has happened since then. Our athletes have endured your typical cheer obstacles such as sickness, injuries, people quitting, and attitudes. The one thing that makes our gym so special is we do not let those obstacles get in our way. We have grown closer as a program and are learning more and more everyday the importance of coming to the gym and blocking out the outside world out.

Since my last post my team (in particular) has received an IN BID and a full paid bid to The Big Apple. We are aiming to  earn as many bids as we can and make this year one to remember. We have also planned many team bonding and gym bonding activities such as a mini New Years Party. Soon, we plan to have a Daddy/Daughter Dance and much more  before this season quickly approaches the end.
