Lifetime TV's CHEERLEADER NATION

[ASUADPi]

I was searching youtube and I came across the Dunbar nationals 2007 routine.

The video isn't the greatest quality but you can see the routine. Good routine.

For those who wanna know Ryan is the "B" (the person shooting the video actually says it. LOL). She also comments on the amount of fulls that they had this year.

here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM8aS4Kqxyo&NR=1

edit: I'm not sure if this is the Varsity squad though. I just checked the PLD cheer site and it shows a picture of the JV squad at nationals and they placed 4th. The uniforms are the same. It looks like varsity wore the black ones (from the picture).

the only weird thing is that the woman kept saying "ryan" this and "ryan" that. If it's the same Ryan from cheerleader nation, how much would it suck for her to spend two years on varsity to be demoted to JV.

True, but at the same time, having your mom as both mom and coach could work for or against you.

She'd be a junior this year, right?

When I was a cheerleader we'd be so snarky about the junior girls still cheering for JV. If you didn't make Varsity by junior year, chances are you'd never make Varsity at all. We were so bad back then.

Yeah she's a junior this year.

Your right about the whole JV/Varsity thing, that's how it was at my school. JV was for sophs and juniors. There were a lot of girls who made JV but never made Varsity.

But then, the requirements could have been a lot harder this past year for the girls trying out, plus there could have been more talented girls trying out. They (Saleem and Donna) did say that it was purely based on points (so top 22 scores made Varsity). Ryan could have not been one of those top 22 girls.

question- Do JV squads compete in their own competition at Nationals? Does anyone know?

JVs sure compete around here. At a lot of schools freshmen can't be on varsity, yet because of all the cheer gyms in metro Atlanta you see JV squads who are better than most college squads. The whole squad has fulls, etc.

However, JV squads can't compete for state at this time.

*BUMP* I've heard through the grapevine that there will be a season two of this show, same school, and that they're currently editing together the material. Haven't heard a premiere date though.
