Hey there, It is definitely possible to make it, but you need to work extremely hard before trying out and you need to be dedicated. I am a cheerleader, a flyer. It would help to know what position you would be on. But my advice is to get signed up at a cheer or gymnastics gym and get tumbling down. Work on your jumps, such as toe touch, double toe touch, right front, left front, right hurdler, left hurdler, and a pike. Cartwheels, roundoffs, inside cartwheels, and backhands. And flexibility is a huge thing. Really work on that. These are the basics. Check my squad out on Youtube. We are 5 year state champions. Almost College Level I believe. Springfield Varsity Cheer. This should give you an idea on what to work at. Good Luck 🙂

Do you have to have previous experience to be a cheerleader for a state college?

Question by me: Do you have to have previous experience to be a cheerleader for a state college?
A state college such as ASU or USC. If you didn’t do cheer in middle or high school can you still be a cheerleader in college?

Can you be a cheerleader in college without any previous experience?

Question by Clueless: Can you be a cheerleader in college without any previous experience?
I’ve never been on a team, and my school doesn’t have cheerleading since we’re all girls. I’ve always wanted to be a cheerleader though. Is it possible to be on a squad in college?

Answer by Brys
It’s definitely a possiblity. Look into cheerleading schools around your community, and work hard to make up lost ground. You should start off with tumbling, and make sure you have everything down. Then join a local squad or something. It’s definitely doable if you’re willing to put in the work.

if you can’t take classes and you still haven’t made the team, it’s unlikely you’ll make a high school team. find another sport to get involved in.
