Hi Maeghan. Well, congrats on making the varsity team! In my opinion, since you mentioned that money is pretty tight with your family, I think that the best thing to do is take a break from the all-star team. You'll still have them as friends but, most importantly, you'll also still be cheerleading with the varsity team which is great!
I realize you're only 14, but this kind of decision making is really important for your future. It's taking the consideration of others (your family) before yourself especially when it comes to money. If you didn't make varsity, that would be a different story but the fact is that you did.
My advice to you would be take a year off from all-star and tell your parents you'd like them to save the money instead. They will really appreciate this kind of maturity and it will make you feel good knowing you've contributed to your family in this awesome way.
Best of luck!
