When I tried out my senior yr. I had no experience in cheer leading either but i was flexible, some of the other cheerleaders told me that as long as I really tried and memorized the steps that I would be alright and that I didn't have to know any tumbling. And if you have any trouble just let the coach know and she might help or talk to one of the varsity girls to help you out. If you believe and have confidence in your self then everything will be alright.

Where I'm from, if you can't even do a cartwheel, forget it. Especially if you're thinking of making Varsity!!
