i had a friend who had a really pretty voice.. and she was a really serious singer..
but, she wasted it on cheerleading
and POOF.. next thing you know, she can't sing anymore sooo blah blah yeah

It can hurt your voice. I was in chorus last year, and a friend of mine in that class was also a cheerleader. Every once in a while she wouldn't be allowed to sing in class so her voice would be better. It'll make it weaker, but thats why within 2 or 3 days before singing, you talk as less as possible.

yes it ca hurt your voice... you might want ot tone the yelling/screaming down and let the other cheerleaders scream loud and proud!!

Yelling a lot will make your voice weaker and so does over singing to! Just drink a lot of water and don't try to yell as much as you normally do!! Hope I helped :)

If you yell a lot and you don't warm up your voice beforehand or have the proper RIGHT training, you will end up losing your voice. Sometimes temporarily, sometimes permanently. You have to take good care of your voice whether you are yelling cheers or belting out a tune.
Look at Kelly Clarkson, for example. She doesn't have a good trainer and she yells CONSTANTLY. She's already starting to lose her voice. It cracks everytime she performs.
Whitney Houston is beginning to have even more troubles with hers. No it's not because of the drug use, but it's because she's straining her vocal chords constantly. Years of abuse [vocal abuse, silly!] can have permanent effects you don't want to go through.

yelling is never a good thing for the vocal chords. You can use volumne but out right yelling is no good. It will strain them and then it will take weeks and sometimes even months of silence just to repair the damage. Some singers like Celine Deon refuses to just chat. When she is offstage she only speaks when necessary because of the added strain on her vocal chords. Of course she signs every day and is in the recording studio for months at a time and that is how she makes her living so I wouldn't go to that extreme. I would just use volumne control when cheering and don't do any yelling and make sure you gargle with warm salt water each morning and night to help repair the damage that you do. Another thing to remember to protect your vocal chords is to avoid really warm and really cold drinks before and after straining it for long periods. Use tempid temps with all drinks before and after. Hope that helped... :)
I am unable to send this to your inbox as requested because I don't have your addy but you are more than welcome to write to me from mine and I can answer you back. In quick response to your question; yelling with that much power does damage the chords. While you are young they will heal but unless you are prepared to give your voice adequate time to heal (by being quiet, doind small excersizes, etc., it will eventually weaken it to the point of not being able to repair the damage. Most people never really worry about it because where they love to sing they aren't going ot make a career out of it. It really only matters for people who want or do make a career out of singing. Singers use their voice daily where your average person only uses their monthly or so. If you are going to plan to use your voice daily for several hours a day in training your voice then you will want to start now not causing extra strain if this is your plans for the future. As I said before screaming puts tiny tears in the vocal chords and where they will heal it will after long periods of time using your voice cause lasting damage. You see the heavy metal bands screaming year after year in their songs and then they suddenly disappear from public view or stop doing concerts and keeping their career to the recording studios and special events because of the damage. I wouldn't stop being a cheerleader if thier is something you love simply because I remember what that was like that that was the funnest times I had in school. But, I would go easy on your voice. Maybe talk to your coach and ask that you are all given Megaphones or Mikes while you are out there. Remember that extreme cold while yelling is even worse and I remember how cold some of those football games got. Hope that answered your question but if not feel free to send me your questions and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Hey girl,
I sing alot too and I love it. You have a really good question and the truth is, it depends. If you have a voice lesson the same day you have a football game, don't yell as loud when you are cheering. If you strain your voice too much, you will rub the vocal cords sore. So doing both is not gonna to make you loose your voice but don't do them both(in large amounts) the same day. It might be a struggle but it will work out in the long run.
*I hope I helped*
