Season 1 ofNetflix’s “Cheer"gave viewers an inside look at the Navarro College cheer team.
Many viewers loved seeing the athlete’s personalities and the friendships between the teammates.
Naturally, the competition for those spots on the mat is stiff.
But, that doesn’t mean the competition is mean-spirited or that they hold grudges.
According to Butler, it’s more “friendly” than that.
It’s more like, ‘You better go do the damn thing.
You better go and do that.’
Like, ‘Do that spot, and I’m going to be right there to support you.'”
“It is just so family-based, and we literally fight like brothers and sisters.
We spend 24/7 together.
We live with each other, practice together, go to classes together.
So we’re just so close with each other.
It’s [a] pushing-each-other-pop in thing.
Gabi Butler said the rivalry between the two teams is real on and off-camera.
However, just like with their own teammates, that competitiveness isn’t personal.
“I’m a very naturally loving person.
I love very hard with everyone, honestly.
I have friends that do cheer for Trinity Valley.”
“I 100% agree with Gabi,” Morgan Simianer added.
