okay, so I'm a bit confused.  You are just on a cheerleading all star team, not for a school, right?  Squad is called Cheer Invasion, and a team called Senior Silver. That is where I get confused.  You need to say the cheer that you come out to so we can get an idea of where you would want the wording...\nsorry!

I'm not a cheerleader, but I have two daughters who are.  Their coach has the qualities you've stated.  But she lets them know she's the coach.\n\nCoaches should coach the way parents parent.  One child may need to be told 400 times to learn something, while another only has to hear it once.  I guess the best way to describe the "perfect" coach would be the way we view "perfect" moms on TV.  When you need to be stern, be stern.  When you need to be loving and understanding, be loving and understanding.  Imagine Mrs. Brady or Mrs. Cunningham coaching and you'll be great!\n\nGood luck on your interview!!

As a current cheer coach, I am glad to see you preparing ahead of time for what may be one of the most important positions in the squad.  A flyer has to have poise and stamina.\n\nWork on standing in a liberty, arabesque and heal extension every chance you get.  The better you can do this on your own on the floor....with no bobbles, the better chance you will have to complete the stunt without a fall.\n\nYour bases are there to help you, but you are ultimately doing the work.  Tighten your body as you are being lifted and held...this will help with height and wobble factor.  \n\nI always tell my girls to focus on the center of their body.  The core of your body.  This will help you.  \n\nMost of all, listen to the count....and don't cradle before then.  I have seen serious accidents occur when girls do not listen to their team mates.\n\nat 5'2" at 115 pounds, it is likely that you might be a flyer, however, as a coach, I not only look for the smaller girls (which are easier to lift), but the girls that can control their body movements once in position.  If you think that you can nail that stance everytime you go up....you have what it takes to be flyer!\n\nGood Luck

My cheer team went to Nationals in March, and the best  thing besides being 100% prepared and completely confident in every move, jump, and stunt is to practice in front of an audience.  \n\nFind out how large the floor you'll be performing on is, and measure the outline with tape on the gym floor or wherever you practice.  Go over how you will enter and exit the floor again and again.\n\nInvite everyone you know to watch your squad perform.  We had more experienced cheerleaders and coaches from other teams critique us, and we performed three times.  The bigger the audience, the more you will be prepared for the competition.\n\n\nMake sure to practice your facials, especially in front of an audience! Sometimes when you're nervous, you think that you are smiling but you aren't.\n\nMake sure to be full of spirit, because that's one of the things that the judges will look for!\n\nHave lots of fun, good luck!

YES, YES, BROOKE, OF COURSE YOU CAN. Don't let these people get you down, who, more  than likely have never done cheerleading in their life! Varsity requires many stunts such as back handsprings, do not despair, JV does not require it. In some schools, maybe, but not normally.\n\nPractice really hard and don't give up! Have fun!

Hey, that's great you are trying out for cheerleading! And you sound very prepared, but just some tips for tryouts...\n\nBe fit, on time and enthusiastic. Be prepared and alert to follow instructions. Keep a \npositive attitude. Always have a smile on your face! \n\nListen to your captain/instructor. Don't play around with other people too much, I mean, be friendly, but this is serious work. Pay attention to steps you will be asked to follow, because you will learn something and then you have to preform it on the spot!\n\nDon't be late for ANYTHING. Show up 3 hours early if you have to! 3 hours LATE will piss them off for sure!\n\nBe sure to stretch real good before and after tryouts. Don't attempt moves unless you already know them or have trained for them. It will cause injury and annoy other team mates.\n\nNEVER be afraid to ask a question (it's better than not knowing and making a fool of yourself), but don't say something like "I can't do this", no one needs - nor likes - a quitter, and that will send you packing SO fast.\n\nIf you make a mistake, move on and don't cause attention. Have tight moves and high jumps, and cheer LOUD!\n\nGet lots of rest the night before, don't try and do too much physical activity the day before besides stretching or practicing a rountine, bring snacks and lots of water, don't wear jewlery, don't wear makeup, don't chew gum, keep your hair puled back, and most importantly keep that smile and passion!\n\nI hope you have fun and make the squad! Good luck!

U should go to your local cheerleading squad and ask for a private lesson to learn the basics so that when they say something like everyone show me ur Herky u will no what to do. I hope u take my advice and make the team!!!!

Being a cheerleader in two simple steps:-\n\n1. Have your brain removed and placed in a bucket (just in case later you realise that you need it after all)\n\n2. Get someone to superglue your face into one of those fixed vacuous bimbo smiles\n\nThen..... Hey Presto! you're a cheerleader!!!\n\n[just love how the cheerleader giving advice below spells "school" as "skool"... just about says it all, really]

most gyms (as in places where you do gymnastics, none of that YMCA junk) offer classes to help cheerleaders. if you can't do that then i would recomend just working on your flexibility and stomach, leg, and upper-arm strength.

get your local newspaper/radio station to come to training. think about what makes your team special. Are you the only ladies team in your area? Make sure everyone knows when and where you train. word of mouth is  by far the most effective means of advertising tell everyone you know- send an email circular around your workplace design some sumple posters have you got a logo? You need to distinguish your team from the mens or other ladies teams. Put signs on the nearest roundabout directing you to the training ground. Put posters up in the pub, think about the kind of people you want to join your team, what do they do? What are they interested in?If your players like going to the gym,  put signs up there.if you think there more likely to be in tesco, put signs up there.  Try and get as much free advertising as possible. I am a graphic designer if I can be of any further assistance let me know. fionatheobald@yahoo.co.uk

I'm a cheerleader too, I know how you feel..I live in a small southern town where football is life and all the girls love to be cheerleaders. We have over 200 girls tryout every year and we also only take 12-15. But the best thing I can tell you to do is smile non-stop, show tons of spirit, practice what they teach you, and most importantly be a confident in yourself and you should do great!! good luck

Smile but don't be too cheesy... hit your motions, make sure they are tight and sharp. Make sure you are in the front to learn the dance and/or cheer... don't be afraid to ask questions... wear your school colors... remember you are there to try-out so socialize afterwards...work on the learned material at home... and relax!! If you mess up keep going because I have given people points for messing up but not stopping... it looks pretty bad if you panic... lastly have fun!!! Good Luck
