    be willing to sleep with all the football players and maybe a coach or two. and be flexible enough to get in any position the guys want you too.

    you have to have tumbling skills. if you have that, you can get on ANY team. šŸ™‚
    Good luck!
    (go to a gym and ask them to help you, you can get a private lesson or go to open gyms and work on tumbling)

    that is not truee..even if you have the BEST tumbling
    skills doesnt mean you can just get on the the team like
    that soo not not true…you have to have and be

    *Good Grades!
    *Good sportsmanship!
    *Spirit!
    *Not a bad reputation!
    *Friendly!
    then comes along the jumps
    and tumbling

    If you mess up just let the judges
    think you meant to do that..
    practice your jumps (toe touch,herkie,& the basics)
    flips (cartwheels,roundoffs,and whatever you can do
    if you can do it DO IT! but if you know you cant do it
    dont even try because they judges do not wanna see a big
    mess up..if you can only do a back roll then do it!
    they’d love to see the perfect backroll then a messed up
    backhandspring or something you cant do!
    and remember to always SMILE! [:
    no matter what your doing!
