I’m aware of numerous lawsuits v numerous bad actors all across the country, as reported by FitsNews and other media outlets. SO – what will it take to put a halt to these ineligible coaches/owners continuing to appear at competitions and schmoozing (grooming?) potential victims?

Perhaps an arrest or 2, or 3, or MORE will drive the message home? “The wheels of justice grind slowly” – I get that. But we’re talking about the health and safety of CHILDREN here …. criminal charges of child neglect/abuse should be referred to law enforcement for prosecution, in addition to the civil litigation already filed. Have any such charges been filed?

Stephanie should never be put in a news article with Scott Fosters name included in that story.
Also this article is not 100% accurate. So please get your story straight before you publish false information.

Please note that this article is not accurate and needs to be fact checked before publishing. This is clearly an attack on Stephanie over 2 parents who have nothing better to do than to destroy her life. I’ve had my family at her gym for almost 10 years and have never had an issue with her. The allegations are obscured and she should NEVER be in the same paragraph let alone same article as Scott. He was disgusting he should have been banned long before he was.

The false allegations are insane. USASF should have looked into it more and realized it was false. They caved and ran with their tails between their legs without looking because of Scott. Instead of instantly banning they should have looked at who was giving them false info and realized that they were unstable adults.

I’ve spoken with previous customers at local gyms in Savannah and they are happy here. I’m happy here and will continue to give Danny and Cheer Savannah my support.

Praying for Stephanie Britt and her family !! This is an on going injustice to Stephanie and kids , fiancé and Cheer Savannah! Stephanie Britt is in my opinion the nicest, most caring, honest , loving, heartfelt , knows her expertise Coach , friend , mama to all , kind of person! In my opinion from social , private, to kind she is the absolute person I want In my family’s corner ! She has abided by these ridiculous accusations for long enough!! God will prevail ! Her name is being used against her because people are jealous of her and her name should never be used in this context ever period, but that being said it obvious that the congregation throwing her name around is jealous and doing everything to jeopardize everything she has fought to build! Cheer Savannah can’t be stopped because of the legacy Stephanie Britt has built ! As much as I think this is ridiculous and ludicrous, you can’t stop love , loyalty and greatness! So keep coming for us , she has more in her corner and they have more in the organization corner than you could ever imagine!! You all of you who are even remotely putting her name and gym involved should be ashamed!! I have boys but have family in this organization and know Steph personally, this is an absolute insult to the Cheer world and to these kids who love and adore her and to the her family!! You should be ashamed!!

Putting Stephanie Britt in the same article as Scott Foster is leading. They COULDN’T be further from the same type people. This article paints a picture that is far from the truth. Sex offender, drugs and alcohol, and grooming children is what Mr. Foster was up to … NOT Coach Britt.

Every gym has “those” mom’s who think their child is the best and “has” to be on a certain team. When little Suzy doesn’t do so well it couldn’t be their fault. So accusations are made “my coach is picking on me” and so on… mom’s and daughters feel the need to save face, or mom is on a mission to “defend” little Suzy. All it takes is an accusation now a days and the sensitivity of the sport at the moment and being better safe than sorry! My heart goes out to the victims who were legitimately affected.

We are extremely happy at the gym and we talk to our daughter constantly about the environment and her feelings. The gym has an open door policy and that was before the ban. Our first season my daughter had a male coach and I spent numerous practices inside the gym until I was comfortable. The staff is incredibly respectful to the athletes while still pushing them for greatness. Every interaction with Stephanie the past few years we have known her, has been positive. She is blunt and honest but I prefer things not be sugar coated or talking behind my back. She has a straight forward approach and plan to help each athlete be successful.

To the writer of this article… your sources need another check.

This article is beyond disgusting and all of allegations against Stephanie are absurd. Stephanie Britt is one of the most kind and caring women that I know — a true inspiration to women and business owners as well. I feel blessed that my child was able to spend multiple years with her before all of this nonsense began, but we will forever support Stephanie and be a part of the Cheer Savannah family regardless of what happens or who is running the gym.

Stephanie never did anything but uplift my child, encourage her, and help her learn and grow. Stephanie is the sole reason that my child began to LOVE this sport. She poured nothing but love and encouragement to all of her children and athletes. I hope that one day this will all be over and the jealous “women” that have created this — DO NOT WIN. Stephanie has spent her life building this empire (an amazing and incredible one at that) only for it to nearly be destroyed, all over a select few mad and jealous people with nothing better to do than attempt to take her down.

I wish nothing but the best for Stephanie and her family as they continue to have to deal with this. HEAVY prayers for her and her family, and last but not least —

JUSTICE FOR STEPHANIE BRITT ??
We will forever be Cheer Savannah for life.

I agree with Roxy and Millie, Scott was a nasty, greezy, disgusting filth of a human. My child has cheered for both gyms, she knows the some of the victims. To link him and Stephanie together so you can get views on your article is down right evil. Let’s look at the actual facts….
Stephanie OWNED the gym and was the first to do so in Savannah. Then here comes another gym in town.. who is constantly cheating the USASF by lying about who is on the roster. Last year the person who reported it to the usasf is also the same person who was called out by Stephanie for having her child go and tumble at the competitors gym before the season was over then went and gym hopped to them. Embarrassed I’m sure, she decided to take revenge on Stephanie? Stephanie is the kindest person, and because she said “rude” things… feelings got hurt.. and that mom ran like a coward.
Well let me tell you something… maybe that mom went and got together with jealous parents at her new gym because they wanted to be mad at Stephanie too. Most of Savannah started at cheer savannah and couldn’t pay and left owning a balance, and wants to blame Stephanie for thier failures.
I watched with my own eyes that mom literally pull her phone out and start her drama.. she even labeled herself “the firework squad last year”..

The fact that there are parents in this comment section defending ANYONE who is permanently banned by USASF is doing a disservice to their children. You all are part of the problem. I am not even from the area but for USASF to do anything take an act of God. Regardless of how good of a person someone is….rules are in place for a reason. If they aren’t being followed then they need to be brought to light. The fact that, that is being missed is mind boggling. And I do not think the author was comparing her crime to Scott’s crime. They are saying these are the same loopholes that are still not being addressed. Literally do better as parents and grown adults.
