    im n high school u have to have good grades they prefer u have tumbling skills but u don’t have to if u do u get extra pts.from the judges smile alot ..
    .
    jumps: toe touch, front hurdler, herkie, tuck, pike (they want them high)
    make sure u have precision,nice tight motions not sloppy or broken wrists

    req.: ask any present cheerleaders or the coach if u need tumbling if u do end up needing it take a class

    work out plans : stretch, lift 5 lb. weights? cuz u need strength for ur motions, jumps, and when stunting, running/walking

    meal plan: fruits, veg, sweets every now and then try to stay fit

    how to:if u need any tips here are just a few sites i recommend

    all u need to know is your front walkover
    have a good roundoff, toe touch and pike
    at least be close to your back hands spring
    and if u r going to be a flyer strech because u need a scorpine and close to a heelstreach and a left split

    my middle school was insane:
    1) your GPA cant be below 2.5
    2) you need to be able to preform a dance flawlessly
    3) you need a close to perfect toe touch
    4) you must be able to yell and cheer extremely loud
    5) sharp movement and personality
    6) SMILE SMILE SMILEEE!

    For my middle school they require
    -no grades lover than a c
    -basic tumbling such as cartwheels and round-offs. But if we have a back handspring it helps so much.
    -jumps such as toe touch, pike, both herkies
    – lots of spirit and confidence and of course
    – a SMILE 🙂

    Our cheer tryouts were anyone makes it if they tryout in middle school. But in high school it’s [obviously] not that way. We have to pass 5 classes (such high expectations, not 😀 ) to stay on the team. But for tryouts:

    -Jumps (toe touch, herkie, hurdler and pikes)
    -Sharp Motions
    -Tumbling (backhandspring to make varsity)
    -Run half a mile in under 4 minutes.
    -Make it to all practices & games. Or if you can’t then call before.
    -Have a positive attitude 🙂
