Show THE THUNDERBIRD TUESDAY OCTOBER 20, 1987 PACE Cheerleaders face new rules, guidelines LIGHTHOUSE LOUNGE and work on the routines for days and even weeks," she said. SUSC's cheerleaders note that one study, conducted by the Consumer Product Safety. Commission, listed cheerleading 182 in a list of 200 for safety. "It's a matter of priorities. People aren't too shocked when the football team has two or three injuries in one evening. In fact, they even expect it. But when cheerleaders have a handful of injuries nationally, people will worry about it," said Duce. The cheerleaders note there is fewer than one spinal injury a year among the nation's nearly 600,000 cheerleaders. Yet nationally, football alone accounted for 46 permanent spinal injuries. In the meantime, to help ease concerns and comply with state insurance guidelines, SUSC's cheerleading squad' is following rules set down to them at their summer cheerleading camp and by the Universal Cheerleaders Association which represents cheerleading nationally as a sport. BY LISA JANE LAIRD SUSC's cheerleaders find they must follow a few new rules to appease their insurance company after one fatal accident and one near-fataccident, nationally, in cheerleading. Dave Duce, head cheerleader, said the current concern for safety and insurance is a bit hysterical. "We stress safety and good spotting techniques in all of our stunts. The accidents that the insurance companies are focusing on involved a disregard for the rules." The cheerleaders note that last year an accident, involving the illegal use of a minitramp in Kentucky, left one cheerleader paralyzed, while, another stunt in North Dakota, killed another person because of lack of spotters and safety techniques. Cheerleader Staci Hutchings emphasized that all SUSC stunts involve one or two spotters and good lift techniques. "We train to do this. We don't just decide to do a pyramid.
