Do I have a chance at making JV junior varsity cheerleading team?

Question by Amazinqq_Jayy: Do I have a chance at making JV junior varsity cheerleading team?
Cheerleading tryouts are in about three-four weeks. I was wondering if I have a chance of making the junior varsity squad. I am a junior in high school and I am very skinny but not very flexible, so I’m going to be stretching a lot before tryouts. I can’t do the splits yet but I’m determined to learn how though. I really want to make the team but i don’t know if I’ll be able to… Do you have any tips or advice for me?

Keep stretching! Do your splits everyday and just push yourself and eventually you will be to the ground!
Practice cheering too! Look up some cheerleading stuff on youtube and practice the cheers.
When you try out just be confident and positive and A L W A Y S smile! That’s the most important thing! Even if you mess up just keep smiling!
& make sure your motions for the cheers are tight and sharp not sloppy! So just make sure your squeezing your arms when you cheer! Like your flexing!
Goood luck(:

Will having braces affect my chances of making the cheerleading squad?

Question by ily ☮♥☺: Will having braces affect my chances of making the cheerleading squad?
I might have braces until the end of ninth grade. I want to make the high school cheerleading team. I know smiling is one the most important things to do at tryouts, but I want to know if having braces in my mouth will affect my score or anything. It shouldn’t, but some people can be kind of shallow.

You can find a list of some here: http://aescougarcheer.com/Cheer101/SkillsandDrills.htm#dance

I use Magix, but if you are going to buy music and sound effects from Cheer Music Store, those are made with Acid and are set up to adjust their timing automatically in that program. (Bummer for me with Magix, but I make do. I’m just sort of winging it anyway when I stitch my pro mixes from CMS together. :^) )

How to stop friends from making fun of me because im a cheerleader?

Question by Vcjfriends: How to stop friends from making fun of me because im a cheerleader?
When ever i spend the night over my friends house they always talk about how being a cheerleader is dumb. And i try to explain to them that it’s not dumb to me but they won’t listen. How do I make them understand that cheerleading is much more than being preppy it’s actually hard work. It’s alot harder than all of the other sports at school

You think cheer-leading is a “sport”?

Sorry. At best, it is a combination synchronized gymnastic and dance competition where a judge’s “opinion” decides who is most popular.

Real sports are not decided by judges. They use unambiguous points or carefully measured times/distances.
