I'm a cheerleader too, I know how you feel..I live in a small southern town where football is life and all the girls love to be cheerleaders. We have over 200 girls tryout every year and we also only take 12-15. But the best thing I can tell you to do is smile non-stop, show tons of spirit, practice what they teach you, and most importantly be a confident in yourself and you should do great!! good luck

Being a cheerleader in two simple steps:-\n\n1. Have your brain removed and placed in a bucket (just in case later you realise that you need it after all)\n\n2. Get someone to superglue your face into one of those fixed vacuous bimbo smiles\n\nThen..... Hey Presto! you're a cheerleader!!!\n\n[just love how the cheerleader giving advice below spells "school" as "skool"... just about says it all, really]

Maybe start a kissing booth? Or get people to hire you out for birthdays or whatever, you could go and chant and kick for them.\n\nGood luck! And I hope to God you're better looking than our uni cheerleaders (big butch Scary Marys, the lot)

I have large breasts to and understand what you mean. Although you should be able to wear whatever you want men are men and will bother you. Some suggestions are wear something loose to try and discourage them or join a women's only gym. The only other thing I can suggest is coming up with a good response to there responses such as " I'm sorry, but your brain is just to small to handle all of me." or " I was interested until you spoke." Once a few see that your not about to listen to there stupid pick up lines only the guys truly interested in you will still try.

I am not a cheerleader, but as an onlooker, cheerleading seems like very hard dedicated work.  You have to have a lot of stamina, physically fit and a wonderful personality to boot.  \n\nI hope you find the link useful.

I have two teen daughters in cheerleading and have had many banquets to attend (I'm 39).  The best thing to wear is jeans, you can dress up jeans very easily.  Your not to old to wear a  cammi with something over it, maybe a jean jacket.  As far the the person who said "son cheerleading", he is one of the smart guys.  He gets to be friends with all of the cheerleaders...

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

Begin by listing goals and objectives based upon age and ability.\n\nIf there are common stances and stunts that everyone will need to perform, begin by teaching that to everyone.  Then expand by listing their physical skill range and ability by individual.\n\nSet goals for each in accordance with age and ability.  Challenge everyone in the program to do something new before exiting the program.\n\nMost cheerleading programs are 5 days to 1 week in duration.  It will be important to organize the information for each participant in such a way as to enable you to appoint a skill or stunt in accordance with a progressive ability chart.  In other words, it may be safer to teach stretches before teaching splits.  Their physical well-being will be left to you to provide for.  That is a very serious responsibility.  Injuries sustained should be seen to immediately.  First Aid protocol needs to be established and adhered to.  \n\nMeals, if provided, or snacks should be healthy and suitable to build strong bones and muscle.  \n\nTo write a proposal for a cheerleading program:\n\nObjective:  To establish a cheerleading program for girls ages 5 to 12.\n\nGoals:  To enable each participant to learn new skills and proficiencies within the field of cheerleading.  New cheers, as well as, formations are placed.\n\nDay 1:  Each participant will demonstrate abilities.  Ability level will be accessed based upon fluidity of movement and agility.  New cheers will be distributed for memorization.  The postures will be established on Day 2.\n\nDay 2:  Assemble each person into groups of same or similar skill ability.  Focus on one cheer per group for this exercise.  Allow opportunity to practice informally, then formally.  Show them how it is to look either in photograph form or video.  Give them instructions on performing the next level of skill or stunt so that they may practice it at their leisure before dismissing.\n\nDay 3:  Assemble and divide.  Repeat Day 2 as needed.\n\n...\n\nDay 5:  Assemble.  Practice and perform skills and stunts in accordance with age and ability levels.  Focus on upcoming exhibition for parents, coaches, and players.  Invite anyone who is involved with sport activities in which cheerleading will be appropriate (always include principals...whether they actually attend or not).  Congratulate, distribute awards in a formal setting, and pat yourself on the back for a job well done.

I'll give you tips for preparing and for tryouts.\n\nBe fit, on time and enthusiastic. Be prepared and alert to follow instructions. As k cheerleaders on the team for tips.\nFind a good gymnastics center in your area, and have skills such as back-hand-springs, aerials, front tucks, back tucks...\nUnless you are really tiny and are going to be a flyer, you need to get some muscle and lift some weights at least 3 times a week. Your going to be lifting PEOPLE and WEIGHT for every stunt. \nHave a solid jump.\nRUN. Fun a few miles every week. Start off at 1/2 a mile and work your way up. You need to train yourself or else you will get exhausted real fast. \nStrengthen your core. 50 sit ups a day will improve jumps and stunting.\nKeep a positive attitude. Always have a smile on your face! \nListen to your captain/instructor.\nDon't be late for ANYTHING.\nPractice 5 times a week.\nBe sure to stretch real good before and after tryouts. Don't attempt moves unless you already know them or have trained for them. It will cause injury and annoy other team mates.

I suggest stretching everyday.  You will need to do wall splits.  In cheerleading we used to do this before every practice...lay on the floor with your butt up against a wall, this will support your legs concentrating on the stretch.  let your legs fall to the sides as far as they will go and hold it as long as you can stand it up to 10 min.  The weight of your legs will create resistance.  Every time you do this you should notice a liitle more flexibility.  I would say it would take a couple of months doing this everyday to be able to do the splits.

Okay, I was a cheerleader.  My squad wasn't great, but I have a little bit of experience.  First off, try this website http://www.mspineapple.com/tryouts.html .\n\nStretch for the splits.  Go as far down into the splits position as you can and sit there for a minute or two.  Repeat for each type of splits.  Also, do straddle stretches (where you sit with your legs apart and bend down.  Try to touch your stomach to the floor.\n\nPractice jumps.  Toe-touches, herkies, hurdlers, etc.  I think hurdlers are easier than toe-touches, but that's me.\n\nUm, about memorizing dances: practice.  If you can get whatever song it is you're supposed to dance to, practice at home.  All you can do is practice.  I stink at memorizing dances, but I got it down as long as I practised.\n\nAnd, to mellogirl89: I don't appreciate your comments.  Yes, many cheerleaders are obnoxious, but my entirew squad wasn't and I'm not.  And I'm not just saying that.  People are always surprised when I say that I was a cheerleader.
