The 2000-2001 season began with a bang. 350 athletes participated in tryouts for the all-star teams. Two more teams were born into the CA family: Kittens and FierceKatz. Not only was the CA family still growing, but also the skill level of each athlete was improving even faster than before. This was largely due to the strong coaching staff and the equipment that was available for every athlete to utilize. The 2000-2001 season was their strongest ever and they brought their team national championship total to 53, which included wins in many of the toughest divisions at the toughest nationals.
