All Star Cheer is an amazing sport with tons of positives for youth and young adults. For all of its upsides, there can be a significant time and cost commitment. If you are looking for something that is half the year and has a lower price point, then Half Season is an excellent option. It is an entry level activity offered as an introduction to all star cheer. Typically, teams practice once a week, have lower-cost uniforms, less time commitment and the atmosphere is a bit more relaxed. The Half Season teams starts in Sept/Oct and ends in Feb/Mar. They only compete locally in Tupelo. If you are interested in trying out the sport before making a larger commitment, all star half season may be a great way to test the waters. If you are already involved in other activities, but want to add a little spice, this tier could be a great addition to your athlete’s life. .
