SIDELINE VS ALLSTAR DIFFERENCES AND SIMILARITIES

While researching cheer, many stumble upon two different types All-star and sideline Our magazine mainly focuses on all-star cheerleading because of the lack of exposure for this specific sector however, we hope to expand to include all forms of sideline such as college cheer, and pop warner. Both all-star and sideline cheerleading requires athleticism, teamwork, and dedication but they do differ in terms of their focus, style, and goals.

All Star

All-star cheer is a competitive form of cheerleading that focuses on performance and skill development. All-star cheer teams practice and compete throughout the whole year, with the goal of winning competitions All-star cheerleaders perform routines that are specifically designed to showcase their skills, athleticism, and synchronization These routines include stunts, tumbling, jumps, and dance All-star cheerleading requires a high level of commitment, as practices can be several times a week, and competitions can take place on weekends

SO WHICH ONE IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

In order to choose the best fit for you, take a look at what is being offered around you and try and get testimonies from people you are acquainted with If you love performing and have a lot of school spirit, sideline is the way to go! If you prefer the thrill of competition and don’t care as much about cheering or hyping up high school crowds, all-star is for you! There is not a black-and-white definitive answer (in fact many athletes do both!) but definitely take time to evaluate your personal situation (for example, sideline cheer often practices at school whereas all-star may be a big commitment since your parents have to drive you to practices and travel with you to competitions). Regardless of what you pick, you will be able to experience the teamwork, trust, and dedication that comes with any type of cheer.
