These gals are amazing. They're dancing. They're doing acrobatics. They're jumping rope. It's all of these, and it's an astonishing display of athletic achievement.
They are 4th-8th grade girls from the Kings Local School District in Ohio who make up the Firecrackers. The FAQ tells how they got started:
The Firecrackers grew out of an elementary school physical education exposition. Coach Lynn Kelly was looking for a rhythmic activity that could be choreographed to music. She found some jump ropes, a few interested students and some good music. The response to the activity was so positive, that it was suggested that the group perform at halftime of a Junior Varsity basketball game. More overwhelmingly positive feedback lead the team to perform at more high school games and then eventually college and NBA basketball games.
Watch this Youtube video taken at a Naval Academy basketball game earlier this year then come back here and try to say you weren't impressed.
