Yes! Cheerleading uses numerous athletic abilities and should completely be recognized as a sport! You've probobly heard this saying befor but sports such as football...they throw a 2 lb ball in the air...we throw a 130 lb girl in the air...AND catch her. You need to be extremely strong! it also ncorporates gymnastics..like back handsprings and such. Cheerleaders have more muscle than the average person. and if bowling is considred a sport...cheerleading is. My little brother can bowl!!! Even sports channels such as ESPN feature cheerleading. Like any other athlete...we train..JUST as hard if not harder.

Hate to mention but when your dad would possibly not help you, I desire that your mother will. I am a center college cheerleading educate and cheerleading isn't low cost. Of path center schoolers do not need jobs to pay for camp, uniforms, and so on. and despite the fact that you would get a role, you would not have time to paintings and move to after college practices, conferences, and video games.... and don't forget assignments. You will want any one to aid you pay the expenses. Is your cheerleading squad conventional or game? A conventional squad is the squad that does the pep rally, cheers at video games from the sidelines, and would possibly do a part time efficiency. A game squad is a squad that travels across the country competing. Most of the game squads are co-ed, incredibly informed, tremendously complicated stunts, killer flips, you get the factor. Its just like the Bring it On Squads. If your college has a conventional squad, all you ought to do is have a few sort of rhythm and get a former cheerleader or one who has already made the squad to instruct you. You would move to a UCA camp. They will instruct you the fundamentals of cheerleading. I believe this would be the satisfactory alternative. If your squad is a game squad, your possibilities of constructing the squad are very narrow except you may have had years of gymnastics. Whatever occurs, I want you the satisfactory of good fortune. Keep attempting and paintings tough. Remember Cheerleading is tough paintings, if it used to be any less complicated, it could be known as Football!

Absolutely, and by the injuries I know it is a sport. The only thing stopping it from being a sport is the company making all the cheerleading products and sponsors of the events. That is actually controlled by one company.
