TAPPS TALK: Inside TAPPS State Cheer (Episode 6 Re-Release)
00:29:15
We are still in Kerrville for the final day of one act play performances, but we wanted to talk to you briefly about the next fine art championship on the calendar and that’s our cheer state championship in December. So we are going to re-release an episode we did a few years ago that’s an in-depth look at the TAPPS State cheerleading competition.
Maybe you are a parent who has never been to one of our cheer competitions before or maybe you are a coach who is thinking about registering or even competing this year or next year. Or maybe it would just be good to hear from some coaches who have done it before. Whoever you are we think this episode is worth a listen.
So here it is, TAPPS Talk Episode 6, first released in September of 2020.

Episode 12: An Architect of TAPPS Swimming
00:17:10
The 2021 State Swimming Championships are just a few days away, but high school swimming, along with just about every other activity this year, doesn’t look at all like it used to.
It’s hard to overstate the importance of sports like swimming. Which is why so many people have worked so hard to make this year’s competition take place. To reflect on that importance, and to give us an understanding of how TAPPS swimming has evolved over the years, we reached out to Bruce Rollins.
Mr. Rollins has represented TAPPS as a parent, swim coach, athletic director, athletic executive committee member, executive board member, and the TAPPS swim director. And it is through his efforts both in and out of the pool that are the way they are today.
