Carissa had tryouts this week. She did AMAZING! She landed her standing tuck (a back flip in the air from a standing position), had great running tumbling and jumps, and solid stunting. The results were posted on Wednesday and she made a senior team! The girls are a little bit older than she is, as they can be up to age 18 on a senior team, but I trust that the coach/owner Brian knows what he's doing and knows Carissa. He was her coach at the old cheer gym for two years. Each squad at the gym has a nickname so they don't have to be referred to as "Senior All-Girl level 4," etc. The gym decided to go with a baseball theme, and each squad has a different baseball team for a nickname. Carissa is on the Dodgers. We're very excited and glad that we made the decision that we did. Everything is very positive and running smoothly with the transition of the two gyms combining.
Yes, there will be a parent team, too. The team nickname is "The Old Milwaukee Brewers." hahaha! I like it! My dad's favorite beer was Old Milwaukee. It makes me think of him. =)
