My DD (11) and her team just got a bid last night! We are super excited as this is their first year as a team and they have worked so hard.
Can anyone who has been through this process tell me what the structure of the weekend is like? We got a Wild Card bid so we have to compete Friday to see if we even make it to Saturday's competition. Their coach told us last night to expect to fly down on Wednesday (we are coming from MA), plan on a practice Thursday and then compete Friday and hope we advance.
I also read there is a party/celebration at the end for all the cheerleaders. Is this Sunday night? Do most people book through Sunday and depart Monday? I am trying to figure out how many days of school DD will miss, esp since this is smack in the middle of MCAS (state testing). It is what it is but would be nice to get a sense.
Anyway, anyone who has BTDT I would love to hear what the days were like in terms of schedule, etc. I know it will be insanely busy, crowded, etc. I am trying to just roll with that.
