Should I do cheerleading?

Question

Okay. I have never done cheerleading in my life, except when I tried out in 2nd grade. I tried dance for a year, and quit. I'm going to a new high school as a junior and this girl I met, whos on the squad, said they need new people. She told me their squad is really bad and doesn't do tumbling. Only three girls can do cartwheels. I can almost do a cartwheel. I asked her to show me some cheers later this week and if I can do them I am thinking about going to sit in on a practice and maybe join if I can. Do you think I should?

Answer 1

Of course you should join!

I am a cheerleader for my school, and I love it when try outs come along, because then I get to meet so many more people! My squad, just like your school's squad, needs more cheerleaders. The more the merrier! If they are really in need of more girls (and guys), then they'll teach you the cheers and you'll get on the squad! It is so much fun, and it is totally worth it! If you want, you could take a tumbling class at your local gymnastics gym, then you could help out the squad.

Answer 2

Yes!! I wish some one would have told me to just do it when I was your age!! So if you want to do it then do it, and if it's not what you thought it would be you can always quit. But you will make friends and it will be a lot of fun. Plus if you like to cheer and dance and be in front of people then why not?? So def. do it and you won't regret it!!
