These pictures show us having fun a working hard. Where there to lend a hand when a teammate needs help, even if it is just to tie a shoe.
Some say it’s a sport but others don’t agree, but what I don’t get is how isn’t it a sport? Not only are we the ones out there on Friday nights getting the crowd pumped up, were much more. We lift girls above our heads while they twist their bodies into pretzel form and keep a smile on our face while we do it. But the girls In the air stand on someone’s hand extended up into the air, we keep up smiling and our confidence while we are being thrown in the air and trusting them to catch you before you reach the ground. We build up our strength until were about to pass out but we always have to do it just once more. We run, yell, stunt, tumble, dance make everything perfect, and smile all at the same time even if we mess up. Staying up late to finish homework and practice the motions just so they can be pretty much perfect. We practice our jumps, motions, back handsprings, tucks, layouts, stunts, and everything else until everyone is sweating to death but the doesn’t stop us we keep going. Being there for your team when they are in need, working through all the injuries, the tough times and taking feet, elbows, fist, and feet to your face, head, stomach and back. But we just get back up and keep going. We work our butts off for ten months to make our routine perfect and when that first competition comes around we bring it just like every other team that’s out there. And no matter what we always leave with a smile on our face. But the best thing about cheerleading is through all the sweat, tears, and injuries we become a family and stay a family. Now tell me how cheerleading isn’t a sport.
Your right, cheerleading should be considered a sport. It's not fair that it isn't considered a sport. If people really understood how tough cheerleading is they would change their minds. Hopefully one day people would stop being dumb and put cheerleading in the sports category.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading this I'm very confident in saying that I'm convinced Cheerleading is a sport. I understand conpletely where your coming from. We all know that everyone hates on cheerleading. "its too easy, of course its not a sport!" The fact of the matter is, there's no way any non-cheerleading could just go out there and do the things you do. Respect-WORDDD!
