Give your answer to this question below!
put this in the cheerleading catagory. if there is one….
here i found this site

flexibility. strength. good memory. positive attitude. good teamwork.
Work on jumps. tumbling and arm motions.
At tryouts– try your hardest. smile and give facials.
it depends on whether or not you want to make jv or varsity…assuming that you have no experience…you must know the basics…you need strong tight motions…..great jumps…(Know them ALL)……and you must project when yelling….yell from your stomach not your throat…smile…and enjoy it…you should practice practice practice……when you learn your routine practice in the mirror…..and you should also work on some tumbling skills….good luck…
I have been a cheerleader for over 5 years. The first two years of tryouts I didn’t make it. I taught myself how to be tight and do a split. I also smiled a lot but knowing the cheer and being as tight as a board put me on the jv team. You need to learn the expression pinch a penny which means pretend you have a penny bettween your butt and you need to hold it there. squezzing your entire body so that it is tight is what they are looking for. Once I made the team I became a varsity cheerleader and captain my senior year, I also was captain of my college squad and i coached a high school last year. Good luck and have confidence.
You have to ask your future high school coach. (S)he is the only one who knows what the tryout requirements are.
