Well the last time I cheered was a long..long time ago but I still love it so I'll be able to help..haha. Make sure you have a coach to spot you on stunts and teach you stunts. If anyone feels uncomfortable doing a stunt dont do it until they feel safe! Since your team is beginners the first thing you should do is find people who want to be the bases, flyers, and spotters. Bases should be tall, but not too tall. Flyers should be light weight and flexibile. And backspots are the tall ones. Everyone involved in a stunt needs to be strong. One little mistake can make the stunt go horribly! You guys all have to be strong so go to the gym and work on arms and legs! Work on your stomachs because flat stomachs help tumbling. Make sure you have a coach or you will not understand what to do. A good beginning stunt would be the Thigh Stand. Have 2 bases lunge in toward one another and have the flyer stand behind them. Then the flyer puts her right foot on the right bases left thigh, and puts her other foot on the other base, she's in a standing position on their thighs, and their holding her legs...she has her hands up in a high V. (If you dont know what that is ask your coach). Thats one of the basic stunts, for more just ask your coach. Good luck with your team! I think your team should go to a tumbling gym to work on your flipping skills, a regular gym to work on strength(arms, legs, stomach), and get a certified coach to help you over all! Beginning tumbling you should learn is cartwheels, round offs, and back bends. Once you guys have mastered back bends take a backhandspring/round off backhand spring class. And learn more skills from there. Do Not do not do not!!! Do splits in a routine. Thats not a good thing. Because it takes too long to get up. Dances are easy, just ask your coach to teach you some. For cheers/chants go to google.com and search cheers and chants. you will get so many. Good luck, need any more info ask!
