I've read recently that on some cheer chat sites and list serves that people are pi**ed at this girl because the rules have now changed for high schools and some colleges. I'll find some info and come back & post.

What kind of rules? Like, 'if you're strapped to a backboard and are wearing a cervical collar and your head is immobilized with giant blocks, don't wave your arms about!'?

I've seen that too - some of the schools have gotten REALLY restrictive on stunting, like nothing more than a shoulder sit, no more tosses, etc.

"No tosses that start from a basket toss prep over hardwood floors. A cushioned surface, mat, or rubberized track are all considered fine". That rule went over like a lead balloon this year.  Not that falling out of a basket toss on a track is all that fun either.
I know that several university cheer squads are ground-bound. Duke is one, I think.

My university always rolls out these huge blue mats before beginning their half-time routines, which always includes lots of flips, tosses, and advanced stunts. No one's fallen so far this year

Southern Illinois...
...paramedics and doctors and idiots. Maybe not all of them but any I have experienced. Anytime a girl goes to the campus doctor....pregnancy test. Anytime someone is sick...antibiotics and an inhaler. I went to the doctor 4 times for completely different symptoms/diseases and i got the same treatment every time. And I'm not joking when i say that I went there for "not being able to sleep" and they gave me antibiotics and an inhaler. It's rediculouls....
sorry about the spelling, I didn't want to download the spell check...sorry
EDIT: Downloaded the spellchecker...hope this makes you happy jon...

What about practice? I didn't think my niece would survive cheerleading practice, at a community college, with an award winning squad.
Because of her gymnastics background, she was involved in tosses, stunts.
Her catcher (the guy who is supposed to catch her), zoned out, with her mid air, and she hit the ground. They were outdoors, I am sure there were mats, but she went down hard.
The coach called the paramedics to check her out, and other than stunned she was fine.
Then, a week or so later, it happens again. This time with her mother arriving to watch just as the paramedics roll up, the same ones as before. This time, she had a mild concussion. The guy wasn't pulled from the squad, just from catching, well sort of, in air cheerleaders.
She lasted the season, without any more airborne stunts, but moved on to rowing.
