Question by Ashley H: Is 14 late to start extreme cheerleading?
I have some experience with cheerleading but I am truly interested in trying out extreme cheerleading. I’m very flexible but I have never tried tumbling before. Should I start now?

Sure! I mean your not getting any younger! haha not that your old or anything!
What do you think? Answer below!
I don’t see why not,you may have to put more effort into it to show that you are worthy of a spot on the cheer leading team. But if thats what you want then you should go for it!! But don’t get discouraged if its harder then it is, you sound like you have a few more years in school, so you have lots of time to make it. Good luck, i hope you make the team!
well first see if you can handle it.
& also do some gymnastics for extra flexablity for less injurys.
but honestly i really recommend not doing cheer at all.
true it might help your weight & health now,
but you can get serious issues with bones & musles.
its horrible wat yu can get.
Well, if you measure it against when I started, you’re early. 🙂 I didnt start tumbling until i was 17 years old, when I decided I wanted to do college cheerleading. I became very good in a matter of 6 months, and I am on a Nationally Ranked Squad. But its all about your work eithic, your drive, and your ability to not allow severe mental blocks. Mental blocks can be a definite set back! Since your 14, you have lots of time to fully develop yourself and become a great competitive cheerleadder, with out a time barrier to stress you out!
Sure! You should do it.
