For the purpose they ruled that it makes sense.

I got the crap beaten out of me once...I'd say it's full contact! :D

Anything that you win by being judged is not a sport!

Ever been to a Cheer moms meeting... now that is a contact sport! I hung around one time just to watch them scream at each other.... Funny how 10 women, all with attractive young daughters can all think the other moms are ....well ''not so sweet"

I agree with it. It makes sense to me.

It makes sense....like Ditka(I believe it was Ditka that said this) says "Football is not a contact sport, It is a collision sport." so if you are comparing the two it is like you are comparing apples and oranges....but if you compare basketball, a contact sport, and cheerleading there is no way cheerleading is a contact sport....so the only reason the state is doing this is so there are less lawsuits

You have a better chance of getting hurt cheerleading then you do pumpkinball
