What are the basic requirements for a cheerleader trying out in freshman year?

Question by C0RRII3: What are the basic requirements for a cheerleader trying out in freshman year?
I live in Katy,Texas (USA) so…What flips should I be able to do? Is flexibility something major, or should I worry less about that? Is the try-out dance hard? ALSO, I had been in both gymnastics and cheer for four years prior to the beginning of sixth grade.

In order to get on JV at my school you have to have a back handspring. For varsity you have to have a back tuck.
Flexability is important, because good jumps definetely get you noticed. I don’t know if your try out dance will be hard, I don’t go to your school.
Just try really had to get noticed, basically.

We really need help because she is a level 7 gymnast and a great dancer (she takes ballet jazz and contemporary) and she has the looks and the voice. This year she’s in third grade and old enough for the All-Star Shooting Star program. I know she’s ready, but does anyone have tips?
Thanks so much Katie! It’s people like you that make answers worthwhile.
