Twirlsuperstar and Crazytwirler...I don't think you understand what we are trying to get feedback on in this thread....NO ONE is saying that a twirler shouldn't work hard or step aside for some one else. The issue is....should you be allowed to compete for 2 titles or let someone else have a chance if you have already won one of them?If you are Beg. or Int. and you qualified (won first place in reg. or M. Majorette) .....should you (possibly) take both spots by entering both contests....or let someone else have a chance?
My thought is.... let someone else have a chance. It isn't about my daughter stepping aside for someone else because it is or isn't a sport ....it is about the fact there are only 2 spots and I don't want her to think that having "titles" is the most important aspect of twirling...among other life lessons. I think it is great that someone else from our state will be able to participate at Nationals.
