Hello Guys!
So I'm sitting here at home instead of traveling to see my friend's daughter compete this weekend and it really got me to thinking about what is going on in this world. The health of myself, my family, and everyone is and has to be my number one priority. I think that a few weeks away from large crowds and gatherings will move this pandemic in the right direction. My hope is that this illness will fade away and we can soon get back to our normal lives as busy cheer moms and cheer dads.
Speaking of cheer, lets move into some more positive topics like cheer. How has this affected you and your family and the sports they play? feel free to reply below. I know that Varsity Brand has taken an unprecedented step in canceling or postponing all events for the next 2 weeks. I know that it is inconvenient, but I do think it was a good step to help this country get rid of this illness. I also know there are alot of teams that are still pushing to get their bids for worlds and the Summit D1 & D2 and there were many bid events scheduled for the next 2 weekends. I am confident from what I'm reading and hearing that Varsity will do everything in their power to give those teams an opportunity to earn bids in the following weeks to make up for these postponed comps. Although this is uncharted waters for us all, I dont think this is the end of the cheer and other competitive sports for the year, its just going to be a small hiccup in the road.
