was a lady in the gym talking to coach. I tried my best to listen to their conversation but I couldn’t hear much. I heard the words “Competition” and “All Star.” Recently I had heard about a cheer competition for the All Stars that would be held in San Jose. I live in San Francisco which isn’t that far away from San Jose, however, I have never been. We’re not All Stars though, why was that lady mentioning the competition to our coach?
