My Project

My cheerleading team has worked very hard over the years to gain skills in stunting. My cheerleaders have gone to overnight camps to learn strong stunting skills that we implement to keep everyone safe while stunting. They really enjoy stunting but stunting comes with risks. We have never had an injured cheerleader from falling out of a stunt, and I want to keep it that way.

The only way to keep my cheerleaders safe is by having safe mats to stunt on.

The mats we currently use are more of a hazard than helpful. We use 4 different mats placed next to each other. They do not connect and often cause my girls to trip. I would love for the girls to be able to stunt without the fear of someone getting hurt.
