I have always heard that they get next to nothing.  All the money they earn comes from calendars, personal appearances, etc.\n*edit*\nYep, Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders get $50 per game, are not paid for rehearsals and are responsible for maintaining their uniform.  It's probably industrywide.

*find some old football jerseys and have the people who draft those players wear them, have a 'photo op' just like they do in the real nfl draft and take pictures.\n\n*get a chunk of green astro turf carpet to place under the draft table.  hire cheerleaders and pipe in crowd noise and jock jams.  get yellow penalty flags to 'challenge' other players picks.\n\n*big screen tv playing old football highlights, especially those of your opponent's key players (like carson palmer) getting his knee blown out. cool!!!

I am here to help! Dont listen to people saying its not that hard...u only have to do cheers! well this is the true story:\nYou will probaly have to work with this material: You should learn a cheer,a chant, a dance, two jumps & additional tumbling.\n\nThere are judges from out of town that will be there choosing who makes it. but dont worry. just keep eye contact & SMILE! gurlie...if you dont smile...then you mite as well not be there! Make sure to keep your motions straight & tight. dont yell...people dont want little girls on their team. cheer from the diagrahm,in your stomach,not from your throat. make sure your words are loud short & choppy,dont sing them. SMILE SMILE SMILE.... the worst mistake you can possibly make is to not smile! keep eye contact with the judges. while your doing your dance act like your having fun...put some attitude into it! make sure after your jumps,chants,cheers,& tumbling to show spirit!that means just throw your hands up & yell go team..get spirit,pump it up,things like that. make sure when it is your turn to tryout when you are walking in jump & show spirit as much as possible.what ever you do, do NOT do jumps when it is time to do tumbling skills,so that means no round off toe touches or toe touch handsprings or tucks.wear your hair up in a high pony tail with shorts that are black and not too short & show your butt!wear a short sleeved white tee shirt that is not too tight or not too loose...make sure that when you do jumps,tumbling,etc. that your tummy doesnt show...judges hate to see skin!SMILE,SMILE,SMILE,& SHOW TONS OF SPIRIT,& SMILE!this is my advice that if you follow,you have no reason to worry.make sure that you eat a good meal that day & for the week of tryouts drink lots of water,caffine messes up your voice!SMILE!!!you should do great!good luck!hope this helps!try to remind yourself that your trying out for fun & if you make it GREAT but if you dont,well there's always next year & i've learned from it!good luck!email me if you want any tips..i am a school sideline cheerleader for football & basket ball & am also a competitive all star cheerleader!email cheer1_06@yahoo.com* please if you need any more help!

you dont try out for the NFL combine .The combine is where the send a pontential player to see how his numbers are , and what kind of skills he has , but if you are sent to the combine you are already someone .....you would have to make it at tryout as a walk on first and that is a tough deal ........ good luck man

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

If you are serious and can get some local support, contact the people at this website (see the link).  It would be a semi-pro league and the guys who play do not get paid, they do it because they love the game.  Not sure if they do anything outside of the US or not but they may give you some guidance.\nhttp://www.semiprofootball.org/\n\nYou could not form a team and compete in the NFL league because it is a closed league and teams must buy their way in by purchasing a franchise(BIG $$$$$$).  You would have to compete with many American cities they are already begging to have an NFL team and spending hundreds of millions of dollars building stadiums for the teams to play in.  Also, contrary to the opinion of many jealous Europeans, the players in the NFL are HUGE and very skilled.  An average linebacker (not the biggest guy on the team) weighs about 260lbs (118.2Kg).\n\nHope this helped.

Hey, I'm glad you've chosen to take up cheerleading. It is great you have gymnastics experience, its required for high school.\n\nStunts you need are back handsprings, front handsprings, possibly back tucks, pikes, toe touches, double toe touches, herkies, spread eagles, aerials, front tucks...\n\nTo get prepared, start RUNNING! You may not think you have to run a lot but, boy, you do! Start running just around your block a couple of times, then work your way around the neighborhood. It's good to be able to run at least a mile by try outs, other girls can probably run 3 miles if they are training hard.\n\nStart lifting weights. You need lots of upper body strength. A 2 to 3 pound weight works fine, do 10 to 15 reps every other day, and lots of push-ups.\n\nStrengthen your CORE! That's one of the keys to great dancing and stunting, start doing some crunches and sit ups!\n\nGood luck in making the squad!

The key is speed.  If you are the fastest guy on your team, you might have a chance.\n\nBefore you start thinking about the NFL, you need to get into a college program.  Most NFL players come from Division 1 programs.  There are 115 Division 1A football programs.  This means you can fill the rosters of all the Division 1 programs with 1st or 2nd team All-State players at each position every year.  That is your competition.\n\nJohn T. Reed provides a lot of detail about going from high school football to college.  Take it one step at a time.

Baltimore: Last Stand of the Cheer-Hunk \n(pic. not available here)  \nTitans cheer-hunk Lonnie will have to be shirtless somewhere else.    \nThe Tennessee Titans, one of the two NFL teams to offer cheer-hunks as well as cheer-babes -- Baltimore is the other -- have just decided to eliminate male cheerleaders. Supposedly this is owing to "liability concerns," because the men were tossing the women into the air during stunt routines. But don't the male cheerleaders toss the female cheerleaders into the air at every college game in the country, without litigation? How come every college in the country can handle this maneuver but the Tennessee Titans can't? \n\nTuesday Morning Quarterback has mixed reactions to the news from Nashville. Being a traditionalist, I think it's incredibly important to uphold the tradition of gawking at buff, half-naked cheer-babes. So as long as the women's squads are not threatened, the cheer institution is safe. But consider the NFL's ever-growing contingent of female fans: surely they have an equal right to gawk at ripped cheer-hunks. And what about nontraditional male fans? You might counter that women and nontraditional men have the players themselves to gawk at. But the players are, distressingly, fully clothed. \n\nHere is the Titans' 2003 cheerleading unit. Kiss the guys goodbye. \n\nAnd to think this could happen when the president of the United States, George W. Bush, is a former college male cheerleader.

You have to be invited to a team's training camp. In order to get to that point, you should probably have an agent. Good Luck!

Practice and an undying will. Recievers like terrell owens catch a 100 footballs a day so get to work thats about 700 a week start counting. It's just like anything else if you do it enough it becomes automatic. Lift some weights too so you can escape the jams the good recievers will be able to. my plan is to eat a steak and potatoe a day to put on some weight then i do about 200 push-ups a day so get to work don't be a punk and slack off either there are so many recievers right now this is a competition no matter what situation you better not quit or else you going to let me and every one else down but by no-way do slack your school work so chap chap. Alright ain't good enough and if you slow don't quit and if short don't quit have faith anything is possible you will see.\n\nMy cousin in my oppinion was the coldest football player he let it slip away if you smoke stop don't let it burn away yo dreams and watch out for girls too but you know get ya freak on and don't forget running routes is crutial too. So run about twice a week and stretch alot when you can do the splits you got good agility and to make your arms stronger than your legs do handstands then upside push-ups i hope to see ya home boy.Good Luck!

As a current cheer coach, first and foremost I would have to tell you to be ready.  Know your routine backwards and forwards, and keep your movements sharp.\n\nBe loud, but not shrill....use your diaphragm.\n\nBe enthusiastic and don't stop smiling.  Most of all have a good time.\n\nGood luck
