Cheerleading IS a Sport!

Cheerleading requires teamwork, dedication, determination, and a whole lot of muscle! The cheerleaders at our school practice every day for two hours. They run a mile every practice, which is more than the football players and basketball players run. Each routine requires HOURS of perfection. Each stunt involves blood, sweat, and tears. Tumbling and jumps require hours of stretching, leg strengthening conditioning and ab work. If there is ever a day when a cheerleader doesn’t have practice, you know they are at home, stretching, conditioning, and perfecting every single little detail of their routine. Cheerleading is most definitely a sport.

I totally and 100% agree with you because first off in football you are on the ground and if you get tackled then you are already on the ground. And in cheerleading if you are a flyer then you get thrown up like 15 to 20 feet in the air and if they drop you, then you could die. But some people think that cheerleading is simple and easy to do. But like i always say i would like to see you go out and do this stuff that i do
