Navarro coach Monica removed from the “Ineligibility List“
Navarro Cheer coach Monica Aldama was put on USA Cheer’s “Ineligibility List“ earlier this year, which we reported on in this newsletter.
Here are parts of it:
“After the lawsuit against Navarro Cheer coach Monica Aldama was made public, she has been out on USA Cheer’s “Ineligibility List“.
The list, (which rules coaches apparently still break) is “a list of individuals whose memberships have been suspended or revoked related to Athlete Protection as well as individuals who are not USA Cheer members, but are barred from membership due to investigations, arrests, or convictions related to Athlete Protection.“
Monica is currently under “Temporary Suspension” for “Member policy violation related to athlete protection”.“
She has now been removed from the list again, after investigations failed to provide proof to support the claims:

Cheerleading auction - donate & spread the word
CheerCast is putting together an auction to help athletes with their expenses:
“Right now, I have five items. It may be the smallest auction ever, but I am hoping people will donate to the cause. So tag your gyms, coaches, team moms, pro shops, small business owners, event producers, cheer companies and see if they will send an item for the auction.“

Level two is just so different like it gets a lot harder because of baskets and then pryimad is just harder, but level one tumbling is so pretty and is easy to put on count and everyone's stunts are different
