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.
Cheerleaders work just as hard, if not harder, as all other athletes. Cheerleading is hard work.
