Just to clarify things, Liane never competed in NBTA while she held her NBTA judging license. She only ever competed at USTA/WBTF and at Twirlmania since it is a multi-organization event. Yes, she was asked to judge at Twirlmania once to fill in for one event where there was a conflict but never judges locally at any NBTA competition which is why she let her judging license expire. However, she was so pleased with her performances at USTA national's this year that she says she is finally done competing. I truly hope she is given the opportunity to judge again in all organizations. Any twirler would be lucky to have her as a judge

I LOVE Lianne and think she is a great role model!
