I get what Kelli was saying ... she does have a very intense stare to her eyes. Reminds me of Emily Snake Eyes. I don't think the dark liner helps though; in pictures where she looks more natural, she seemed much prettier! Link to comment

bigskygirl March 24, 2017 Author Share March 24, 2017 One year vet Brandi was a Laker Girl. I think Erika Jenkins tried out to be a Laker Girl, but she did not make the team. I also do not think they will focus too much on Jenna unless she does something big to piss off Kelli and Charlotte and gets cut from the team. They may mention she is coming back for her sixth year, but they probably will find another Morgan or Kelsey rookie candidate type girl story to focus on to the point of driving the viewers and fans batty.

Also cut TCC Emily (the timid one) auditioned for the Charger Girls with Rose but didn't make it. Current rookie DCC Madeline auditioned for the Laker Girls after getting cut last year.

Guest March 24, 2017 Share March 24, 2017 It's official, Megan, Amy T, Claire, & Jax aren't returning as 3rd year vets. Even if we didn't know before, this was a good indicator. Link to comment
bigskygirl March 24, 2017 Author Share March 24, 2017 Twenty nine vets are going on the calendar shoot which means eight vets are retiring from the team. Going to be interesting with at least eight spots open or seven if Kelli decides to go with 36 instead of 37 for the 2017-2018 squad. The question will be will all of the 16 one year girls make it back on the team. Link to comment

LaurenBrook March 24, 2017 Share March 24, 2017 Amy T and Megan don't surprise me as leaving...Amy has been doing pro cheer a while, Megan has had obvious weight issues and I always figured they'd retire together since they are joined at the hip. Claire and Jax surprise me just because they seemed well on their way to bigger and better things with DCC...I admit I was also looking forward to more pics of Claire this year! She was one of the most photogenic in my opinion. 3 Link to comment

bigskygirl March 24, 2017 Author Share March 24, 2017 Calendar shoot was usually in April, so it looks like the move it up. I think there may be a few one year rookies who may be on the bubble if they do not bring their A++ game at finals. Link to comment

bigskygirl March 24, 2017 Author Share March 24, 2017 I admit the only rookies I like are Mandy, Maggie, and Allie. The rest to me are blah!!! I think Milan, Selina, the one Heather with the big teeth (sorry, but her teeth scare me a little,) Khalyn (sorry, but I think Kelli is almost seeing her as another Jackie Bob type,) Kelsey with her Kelli sees her potential curse, and Jessika may be on the bubble this year. I do not understand the Tasha, Kelsey, and Madeline love either. Maybe this year will bring in some TC Candidates I can get more excited over. Link to comment
Uk-Eve March 25, 2017 Share March 25, 2017 (edited) Hey guys, not sure if this is being posted in the wrong boards but I hope it is in the right one. (plus I think I am behind on the news!!!) Just saw on youtube that the dcc weekly has posted the swimsuit fittings (onto youtube the other day) and I noticed that KaShara said she went on the calendar shoot last year. Did I hear correctly on that? Also was the calendar shoot (last year) shot during training camp? I also thought calendar shoot was for those who are returning to the squad eg rookies from current squad and upwards for all their calendars, so why and how the hell did KaShara managed to go to a calendar shoot last year when she was a rookie last year? I might be missing something tbh so please correct me if I am wrong. Also noticed some of you were saying about pro cheer. What is Pro cheer? I have no idea what that is, not being in the cheering/dance world/not living in the USA. I keep meaning to ask this question (always forget) who are the Scholz sisters (that is mentioned on the first page of this thread) and what did they do? Sorry if I'm not allowed to ask just wondered thats all I keep seeing that post and wondering thats all. Edited March 25, 2017 by Dcc fan Link to comment

Maybe she just needs to mature over the years. 1 Link to comment
bigskygirl March 25, 2017 Author Share March 25, 2017 I forgot about Kelli. I wondered if part of the reason why she did not make it into TC before was because of her looks because it is obvious the girl can dance. I wish they would change her hair color, hair style and makeup because she looks older than the rest of the girls. With the right look, Kelli would be more adorable than she already is. Cersten could be the next Jackie Bob or Mia, but I guess we will see how long she stays with the team because of her wanting to go to med school. I like Allie, but I am a little mad because there have been girls in the past with the same type figures who did not make the team aka Grace Lee Sells and Katie S. Link to comment

Im a middle school teacher and I've enjoyed my time off. I'm pretty sure to answer the question below: i believe season 7 filmed their spring shoot, and then edited the episode to make it seem like it was in the middle of training camp. They usually do it at the end of the season to my knowledge. That's why Chelsea participated in the calendar shoot before she got cut.

I've heard (on here) they're all blackballed from attending any DCC alumni events. There's a Pro Cheer website and Twitter page. Could be what they're referring to https://twitter.com/ProDanceCheer http://www.prodancecheer.com/ Otherwise the term pro cheer is girls who cheer/ dance for professional teams (NFL, NBA, NHL,etc.) Edited March 25, 2017 by MrsEVH Link to comment
sleepyjean March 25, 2017 Share March 25, 2017 (edited) You can still get the Scholz book on Amazon. There are people selling used copies for $6.

Uk-Eve March 25, 2017 Share March 25, 2017 Thank you guys. Gosh I cant believe they would write a book. Some reason US amazon wont let me buy the book, to get a read of it. Uk amazon has it for sale for £40+. Interesting on how Kelli and Judy took it when it happened back then (I can imagine). tho I don;t know why I thought Pro cheer was a completely different dance team, when I was reading the previous posts on here. I hope all of the girls make it back onto the squad. I think the one girl I am "debating" whether she'd return is actually Kelsey based on previous years tho she does stick out because of her interview answers. I do love her and Kelli. My eyes keeps going to them whenever I see them. I do wonder where Jenna would be in the triangle this coming year. Link to comment
Jaxratchet March 25, 2017 Share March 25, 2017 (edited) I just went back a page and caught myself up. I am surprised that Jax and Claire chose to retire. You'd think they would go for that third year! Megan and Amy, I liked but I feel like they have a lot going on elsewhere! Melissa was an amazing soloist and I really liked her too! And of course Jenn K, Danielle, and Jessica! I have enjoyed since their rookie seasons! In their rookie season Kitty was hard on Danielle and Jessica! I remember when Danielle hurt her foot or ankle and almost didn't make it back! Jenn K has always been one of my favorites to watch, she is the real deal and a great ambassador for the brand! With that said... i cant wait to see the new rookie talent this year! I also predict (in no particular order) GL1s: Jenna, Erica, Lacey, Jinelle GL2s: Robin, Kashara, Holly, Amy L (Simone, Raylee, Stephanie, Chantel, and Bess are great, but I don't see them being leaders at this time!)

Agree on first leaders. Not sure on seconds. Several of the ones you listed as probably not being leaders yet are seasoned pro team performers and could possibly be second leaders. Bess, Chantel, and Stephanie have all cheered with other teams. I think they have just as good of a chance as Robin, Kashara, and Amy L. I feel pretty confident that Holly will be a second, but anything could happen. 2 Link to comment
