a extremelt ATHELETIC SPORT, in which much stamina is used to throw girls ur size 15-25 feet in the air, also using much skill and coordination to run and flip over and twist and then going back ot stunting while trying to yell over super load music while competition judges are grading your every move, adn if u think its not a sport i want to see u do a standing back flip then run to a stunt do 2 full twists in the air and then move to a formation adn do a extremely complicated dance routine while staying in perfect shynchronization wiht 35 other girls all the while staying in side the white lines on your competition floor
Our squad got 3rd place this year aat super nationals in Orlando, we had an almost perfect score, and we won an award for best performance and best coreography

Get the cheerleadingmug. Cheerleading is, in many peoples opinions, one of the most dificult sports in the world. No I am not reffering to those cheerleaders standing along the sidelines on friday nights screaming pointless cheers, and most usually making fools of themselves in front of the entire student body. I am talking about competition cheerleading. This type of cheerleading is a whole new world of cheerleading. Girls (or even guys) who participate in this know it is extremely physically demanding. They have a very strenuous routine to go out and do perfectly for two and a half minutes with a large amount of judges sit and watch for what they do wrong. It is extremely stressful.
There are a variety of different elements that go into a competition routine. Each individual cheerleader must stunt, tumble, dance, cheer, jump, and never let the crowd know they are exhausted in the process. Though they may run off the floor and puke into a trash can right when they are finished, while they are competing the cheerleader must act as if they are having the time of their life.
Cheerleaders practice all year around. There is no off season for them. They also don't have a chance to prove themselves over and over again by playing different teams each week. All their hours of practice are put to use at one big competition each year to see if they really are the best.
So next time you think of a cheerleader as just one of those bitchy popular girls, remember they are working their ass off at practice while you are sitting around bashing them on urban dictionary. Sweet life.

Lisa- Hey how long was cheerleading practice yesterday?
Judy- Oh it was from 2 to 5, but we finally go the second stunt to stick everytime, and the dance is finally together.
Lisa- Awesome you guys ready for nationals?
Judy- Well I sure hope so. All this work for nothing? That would be so depressing.
Lisa- I'm sure you guys will place.

Get the cheerleadingmug. Cheerleading:
When a group of people cheer for a sport or perform routines in front of judges. The group consists of cheerleaders which throw each other up in the air, jump, and use motions. This is encouragement for the teams that they cheer for, and is a VERY HARD SPORT. If you don't think cheerleading is a sport and cheerleaders are athletes, you have probably heard some stereotypes about them. Let me clarify:
1. Cheerleaders are dumb. THIS IS NOT TRUE. I am a cheerleader, and I also get all A's and B's and I am in the IB program at my school (for all of you idiots out there, its like AP, but way harder)
2. Cheerleaders are sluts. This is stupid. I know more softball players and basketball players that sleep with every guy they know than cheerleaders.
3. Cheerleaders don't have anything better to do than shake their butts, and prance around. Actually, cheerleading requires dance skills, gymnastics skills, and we lift weights, run, and keep up our endurance.
You are entitled to your opinion, but try cheerleading first, BEFORE you say its not a sport. Thank you.

Get the cheerleadingmug. Ok. Since everyone on this site thinks cheerleading is NOT a sport, and you only need half a brain to do it, that shows that they have never done it. Cheerleading is the most physically demanding SPORT in the world. Almost every country in the world has a cheerleading team of some sorts, and it is sometimes considered the fastest growing sport. Cheerleading invovles the ability to remember sidelines (usually close to 200-250), about 7-8 dances, and countless stunts. It also requires extreme flexiability and the ability to put your life in someone elses hands. Ashley Burns is a 14 year old cheerleader who died from being caught incorrectly by her bases (people under her.) Now name another sport where you have to do all those things and it is a matter of life or death. Yea, didn't think so.
David: Cheerleading is not a sport.
MacKenzie: oh really, let's see you do a round-off backhandspring whip back, through to a backhandspring double full.
David: What's that.
MacKenzie: Something way better than catching a stupid football!

Get the cheerleadingmug. Probably the most misunderstood sport. Characteristics such as agility, strength, coordination, and flexibility are necessary in order to cheerlead. Many people argue that it is not a sport, however, it fits all of the requirements to be defined as a sport.
Sport: "A physical activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively."
When a team is entering competition they are given a rule book in which they must follow. Certain moves result in disqualification or loss of points. Anyone that claims cheerleading is not a sport clearly has never attended a cheerleading competition and should probably invest in doing so.

Get the cheerleadingmug. CHEERLEADING IS A SPORTso many people say cheerleading isnt a sport but they have never tryed it before. all of the people who say it isnt dont know what there talking about because no one knows how hard it is . i mean cheerleading is one of the hardest sports in the world and if people got a chance to do it they would change there mind. when people say it isnt it kills the cheerleaders because they work so hard and they get no credit what so ever. i wish that all people who dont think cheerleading is a sport try it and see what they think. it is the hardest sport ever and belive me i have dont all the sports. its even harder than gymnastics
