The Weekend Roundoff
October 28-29, 2023
It All Starts Now
It’s Friday. If you’re anything like us, you’re thrilled that the new season is here. Twitter (uh, X?) is filled with the sweet shrill of sound effects and the sparkle of a Swarovski Crystal. Music releases, uniform reveals, routine sneak peeks, and now competitions are here – even if it’s WAY early. Tiptoe into the season with us.
In this weekend’s roundoff:
- The first two Summit/D2/Youth/Regional Summit bid competitions of the season
- Catch one live-streamed competition on a device near you
- Four showcases we have our eyes on
- Two college recruiting clinics
Let’s go. ⬇️
The First Summit Bid Competitions of the Season
There are 290 Summit bid events this season, and the race begins this weekend. There are two competitions this weekend, one in Indiana and the other in Texas. They will award 3 Wild Card bids to the Summit, D2 Summit, and Youth Summit, plus 6 Partial-Paid bids to The Regional Summit.
The Summit bid declaration changed a bit this year – the most significant change being an increase in Wild Card bids.
One Competition Streaming on a Device Near You
High schools in Memphis will compete at the UCA/UDA Mid-South Regional 2023 on Saturday, and you can catch it live on VarsityTV.
Four Showcases to Lookout For
Showcases season is off to a dramatic start. Last weekend, The California All Stars were flooded out of their venue, and Cheer Extreme debuted what will soon become the most popular routines of the season.
This weekend, we’re looking for sneak peeks from Cheer Athletics Charlotte, Twist & Shout, American Cheer, and University Cheer Force. You can find our list of all upcoming showcases here. (If you want us to add yours, message us on social or email alex@cheertheory.com).
Get Spirited at Two College Clinics
We’re on a mission to make it easier to find the cheerleading info you’re looking for, and that now includes college clinics. There are two clinics on our radar this weekend, both in Texas. If you have a college clinic for us to add, shoot us a message or email alex@cheertheory.com
