Should I try out for cheerleading in high school?

Question by twilight4ever26: Should I try out for cheerleading in high school?
I’ve never done cheerleading before, but it looks so fun! I do take dance. I think that the girls that are already cheerleaders would make fun of me though. My two best friends are cheerleaders, one of them never made the middle school squad, and one of them made it and quit. I don’t know anything about cheerleading, so I probably wouldn’t make it. Should I try out? If so, what should I do to improve my chances of making it?

I think you should try out 4 cheer leading because it’s fun and it sounds like you want to do it. To improve ur chances of making it you should try signing up for gymnastics. It could really help! I hope u make it!!!

    First of I just want to say something… I <3 twilight to!!!!!!!!!!
    Well I would probably not do it only because if you have never done it before than I don't know if you would like it or if you tried out and did not make it they may make fun of you. But do what you want to. 🙂

    Yes totaly I think you would have a good chance at making the team try taking gymnastics clases or ask your friends to tech you some moves before tryouts so you wont be completly unprepared…..if you dont make it its ok and dont let the other girls dicourage you theirs always next yr and b that time i bet youll be twice as good as them!! I hope i helped 🙂

    P.S. I luvv Twilight!!! 😀

    As long at it is something you are passionate about and really want to excel in, then yes…go for it. You should practice even before tryouts though. Work on motions (high v, low v, right fight, left fight, etc…), jumps (toe touch, double toe touch, right/left hurkey, front hurder), tumbling (roundoff, backhandspring, tuck), and stunts…if your school is even allowed to stunt. You need to flexible, have spirt, and be in shape. Talk to one of the hs girls who has made the team in the past or something ask her what qualities you should obtain. Good luck.
