Teams vs. Performances

CheerKeeper distinguishes between:

  • Teams: The program/gym and team name (e.g., "Elite All-Stars Black")
  • Performances: A specific scheduled time slot

When you save a team, you're tracking:

  • All their performances at the event
  • Including awards appearances
  • Any schedule changes

Multiple Teams

Track as many teams as you need:
