What do I need to be able to do to make JV cheerleading?

I have no cheer experience at all but my friend wants me to try out with her. try-outs are in 3 days. I cant do a split or a cartwheel. im working on becoming more flexible. Any advice on what i will have to know how to do and how to do them?

Update:

BTW, try-outs have been post-poned :D i dont have any experience on my jumps and im trying to teach myself but i cant get high and im not sure if im even doing them right...lol

    i dont know what school you go to but for my school all you need for he JV team is to be able to jump, cheer, and dance. they wont make you show a split or carwheel th only tumbling you would have to do is if you have a back hand spring or tuc.if you dont is okay because its not required at my school. if this is you first year cheering try to go to your friends house or someone that has been cheering for a while to make sure all you motions are right. GOOD LUCK!

    Ouch, it's possible but doing that is hard. I would say to work, work, work, on all those things. Also be sure to find out what the coach wants you to do. My school had a pre-try-out clinic which really helped. Good luck! (:
