if you have an All Star cheer team made up only of bases , it is incredibly unlikely that the team will be successful . Without the contributions of strong flyers , front spots , tumblers , jumpers , dancers it will be challenging for your athlete ’ s team to optimally perform . In this way , the team ’ s success is contingent on the diversity associated with the various roles and positions on the field . In parallel , for the team to function at its maximum capacity members must recognize and appreciate the diversity of background and life experience amongst their teammates as much as they do their roles on the competition floor .
