For volleyball- All you need to know if how to bump set spike. You can work on bumping by seeing how many times you can hit it in the air without stopping or bumping it againest the wall. You can also work on setting like that. With setting remember to use your finger tips! For serving in volleyball, there is two different ones underhand serve, and overhand serve. Work on both, underhand is eaiser though for me!
For cheerleading- You can pratice streching alot! Also practice splits, any jumps you might need to know (herky, toe touch, pike) and pracitce running or lifting weight so if you make the team you can lift the flyer up! Just eat healthy and get good exercise! Don’t stress over it to much though!
Good luck, i hope you make both! Keep us posted on what happens!
