Question: How would i become the best cheerleader!?
i'm trying out!Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
really practice your flexibility!!! and try to practice tumbling skills, like cartwheels, roundoffs, back handsprings!. and always be positive and go to all the tryouts!! stay tight and have sharp movements!! make sure you have good jumps like toe touches and pikes!. look happy! and make sure you do good in stunting!. watch the flyer and don't drop her! make sure that the coach sees your skills! you might be really good, and they don't notice you!. if you can do something really well, make sure that the coach notices, and also knows your name!! good luck!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

i don't know if you stunt or tumble,, but universally important things for all cheerleaders:
1!. facials[smile, kissy face, make it exciting, and don't look scared to death]
2!. sharp movements[never look like your just flinging your arms around
3!. jumps [the higher the better, straight legs and arms, good posture, etc!.]
4!. if you can tumble: back handspring is always appreciated!.
5!. if your a stunting squad, see if one of the older cheerleaders will help teach you the basics!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

always remember to point your toes and have fun!. if your doing it just because it wont be enjoyable!. if this is something you really want to do than pratice and have fun!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You need confidence, above all else!. You then need to be strong, don't be afraid of little bumps and bruises!. Work the most on your toe-touch, every one loves a good toe-touch!. Get a little bit of an attitude, only during performance!. Learn to yell from your diaphram, the louder you are the more people will listen!. Be sharp with your motions, the cleaner the better!. Don't be afraid of mistakes, just pick up and keep going, never quit!. Smile, and truly believe you're amazing, because to have the courage of a cheerleader makes you amazing!.
Good Luck and don't give up!. :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm not one, but as a pommer and from seeing the cheerleaders at my school, you should:
-have energy!. judges love energy, pep, and spirit
-SMILE!!!dont be overly cheesy, just show them you're happy to be there and that you really want it
-if you do gymnastics, touch up on your tricks!. if not, you dont have to do the flips to make it, but i would recommend maybe at least a few gymnastics classes if youre going for varsity
-do your best at tryouts and ALL of the clinics!! the coaches ARE watching to see who works and tries hard and who does not!.
-learn all of the cheers you need at the clinics, and PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!!!!!
-just do your best and have fun with it!
-----GOOD LUCK!!!!-----Www@QuestionHome@Com
