so i REALLY wanna be a freshman cheerleader but the problem is when i get in front of the judges i like freeze up and forget stuff like last year i messed up on my cheer and wasn't very loud cuz i was like omg judges so does anyone know how i could get over my fear of the judges?

Okey, first of all, lets get rid of the nervousness. My drama club teacher taught me this a few years back:: Look right above the judges' heads. If you do that, you wont have to see their faces yet the judges will think you're looking straight at them. Next thing, just say to yourself "Okey, the judges are here for CHEERLEADING, which means I HAVE to be loud." Judges want you to be the best you'll be so they'll know if you're physically and mentally ready for cheerleading. Just remember that the judges arent there to make you nervous or make you scared. They're there to --hopefully-- make you a cheerleader.I hope I helped.

(Rating: 5) This was a great answer! Did you know that I went on to cheerlead all the way through high school and now I'm in college? I am just now coming back to this site to help people who knew as little as I did when I asked this question! First thing I wanted to do when I came back was thank everybody who encouraged me to continue cheerleading tryouts... thank you!
