I did it when I was little and it was fun.  The only thing is there are games every weekend so it takes up a lot of your time. Then there is practice during the week. Well I guess it depends on your schedule.  But it was a lot of fun. Good to mingle and get with girls of your same age.

Yes there are different levels of cheerleading... if you want to cheerlead competitively then most likely yes because there are divisions whre the skills performed are highly limited. The HS cheerleading typically doesn't require tumbling or spilts.... a key thing is energy and personality...plus if the coach is qualified, he or she can assist you  and teach you proper technique!

Yes definitely!\n\nImagine a football player having to run a play, while reciting a cheer, staying in step with the player next to him (or her), then at the correct moment have three to four players lift him up.  Cheerleaders do it.\n\nA high school cheerleader will, in most cases, memorize the names of all of the football and basketball players in order to do personalized cheers...on top of the pages of generic cheers they must learn.  A football player does have plays to remember, but he doesn't have to worry about the basketball team.\n\nIf you take five football players, five basketball players and five cheerleaders and required them to score a touchdown, score a basket and put someone in a half, (a half is where the flyer is lifted to sholder height of the bases) the cheerleaders will win.  There is a specific way the flyer has to jump into the hands of the bases or it's not going to go up.  Throwing a football can be done most anyway you hold it.  It may not go far, and it may not spiral, but it will go.  A basketball does not have to roll off the fingertips to score, but it will go into the basket.\n\nI broke my finger playing football as a child.  I ripped the tendon in my shoulder while playing centerfield as a teen.  I didn't injure myself playing basketball, but I did play on a league as a teen.  I have never been able to do anything above a thigh stand in cheerleading.  So, I am familiar with all sports as a participant.\n\nCheerleading is definitely a sport.  Like football, there are "plays" to remember and execute.  Like basketball, there is timing.  Like running, there is endurance.  The only difference is the participants have perfect hair the entire time.

at my school cheerleading is under athletics so it is counted as a sport, but most people dont believe that cheerleading is a sport. IT IS!! NEVER LET ANYONE TELL YOU THAT CHEERLEADING ISN'T A SPORT!!!

You bet I do. All the gymnastic moves, cardiovascular action etc. Most cheerleaders are in great shape.

At my school, it's about who you know, not what you know.  You have to be able to do a roundoff backhand spring and be a good cheerleader.  Stiff, loud, smile.

I coach a midget league cheer squad and applaud you for taking on this task.  \n\nFirst of all, you must get these little girls respect.  I do this by calling 3 to 4 practices per week with a 2-1/2 hour practice time frame.  With drink and restroom breaks, and the occassional talking etc, 2 -1/2 hours is not a very long time. Since we were cheering for the football team, our practices began August 1 and continued throughout the football season.  We practiced from 6:00pm-8:30pm until it began to get dark (then we moved it up one hour).  Another coach in our area does 5 days a week with 2 hours per practice.  Either way, the girls get about 10 hours of practice.\n\nRemember that respect is earned.  Don't expect these youngsters to do something that you aren't willing to do.  My girls and I begin our practice by running a complete lap of the football field and stopping to stretch.  Be sure to stretch the major muscle groups (like you did as a cheerleader).  After the stretch is complete, another lap....and that means everyone including the coach.\n\nAfter a quick drink, it will be time to learn and perfect the cheers and chants.  You didn't say whether these little ones had had any prior experience, and some may not have....so everyone should be patient while all of the girls catch on.\n\nBe sure that all of the girls know the basic cheer motions:  Hi-v, lo-v, T, half T, hi-touchdown, lo-touchdown, diagnals, candlesticks, buckets, etc.  I usually do these to Simon Says.  The girls love the game and it makes them learn to shap the movements sharply.\n\nthere are several sites that give cheers/chants etc.   But, we find it best to make them up on our own....or at least tailor the canned cheers to fit our team.\n\nAs for stunts, be sure that you are qualified to teach these little ones the proper methods for bases, flyers and spotters.  There are videos that you can buy that will teach you how to teach them how to do stunts correctly.\n\nJumps....this is an intrigal part of the cheer squad.  Work on Starting position and lift....we use a trampolline once a week to give the girls a little extra confidence.  Don't forget that most jumps rely on dexterity and muscle tone.  \n\nYou are the coach....you are not there to be miss goody two shoes.  If you see something that is not right, stop everyone and call attention to it.   Demand perfection....demand the best!  Let them know that you are being hard on them for their sake, and remember to praise them when they do well! You will not only get their best effort but their respect.\n\nWe end every practice with gymnastics.  We focus on cartwheels, roundoffs, back handsprings, and back- walkovers.  Again, be sure that you have the support you need to track these girls...and don't let them attempt something that they have not done.\n\nMost of all, have a good time....and good luck!

I have a lot, but it is a cheer teams' job to make the crowd happy. Our crowd always seems to love the good old dependable Toe Touch Basket toss - It is not the hardest stunt by any means, but the crowd thinks sure thinks so!
