Summary
Mackenzie Lee goes to Advanced Bodywork and Massage, and then there is a week 8 practice at Valley Ranch (the final practice of training camp). Kaitlin LeGrand (who wears the wrong outfit) quickly gets cut, and the rehearsal transitions outside. Afterwards, Kelli takes them back inside, saying they need to talk to some of them in her office. Once inside, Kelli says she has things she wants to talk with people about, but before they do that, she wants to focus on the photo shoot. She keeps talking, before saying she is just saying stupid things and has nothing left to say, indicating that they have made the team. The cheerleaders celebrate and visit their lockers at Valley Ranch. Next, they take the squad photograph. Later, the cheerleaders go to Six Flag to watch a performance by some of the recently retired veterans (“All-Stars”). On game day, the team takes the bus to the stadium, and gets to see their lockers at the stadium. There is a pre-game practice (the audio system is having issues), and then Group 1 goes outside for a plaza performance. Finally, the team has its first game performance of the 2011 season.

Miscellaneous[]
Retired Cheerleaders Appearing[]
Other[]
- Angela Rena and Holly Arielle are the longest tenured cheerleaders from this season's rookie class, each cheering for five years.
- This is the first season to be aired in high-definition, as well as the first season to have a one-hour long run time for all episodes.
- While this season is the first to shift to using first and middle names instead of first and last names for the cheerleaders, the first two episodes of the season only uses their first names.
Unofficial Carey DePasquale Award for most invisible rookie: Cassie Kathleen (0 confessionals)
- Cassie is actually invisible throughout the entire season, and can only be identified through process of elimination. She finally receives a confessional after being cut in the next season... but it's also the last time she's ever seen on-screen. Honorable mention goes to Jenna Allison, who while receiving some critiques during training camp, receives no confessionals, and doesn't even receive one after being a veteran cut in the next season. She is only spared from being a zero confessional DCC by her unsuccessful re-appearance in Season 11.
