cheerleading

there ware two kinds of cheerleaders
1.Girls and sometimes guys that cheer and spirit for their football and basketball teams (sometimes other sports). They are there to encourage the team and pump up the crowd. They are also encouraged to be role models for the school and lead their peers.
There are 3 types of these cheerleaders. Recreational and school or college cheerleaders.

2. Competitive cheerleading is a team that creates a routine that incorporates elements from gymnastics, dance, cheerleading, and acrobatics(stunts). The routines are two min. and thirty sec. in length and have strict guidelines set by the AACCA (American Association of Cheerleading Coaches and advisers. There are three types of competitive teams..
