cheer tryouts


Question Posted Thursday October 26 2006, 2:19 pm

so i tryed out for cheerleading at my school and they have like two days before actual tryouts where they teach you the dance the school song the cheer and stunting. i'm not gonna lie i did really good on all of it. and when tryouts came i made sure i looked cute while dancing and everything and when she posted the results afterwards my name wasn't on the list but my best friends was. some of the worst people trying out made it...i don't get it. one of the girls i know tryed out with her friend and they made it because her older sister is captain and her other older sister is coach. girls who were on the team for football season didn't even make it because of attitude". actually the coaches just had their younger sister (the captain) choose almost RANDOMLY without looking at abilities...they also choose favorites.this is so unfair they kicked some of the best girls off just because they don't like them...now i missed cheerleading basketball season and i'm scared to tryout for football season next year. one of my friends moms is going to the athletic director and talking about how the coaches just choose favorites...idk what tooo doo!!! i'm so depressed about not making it!!

I say that happens to everyone some point in their lives. I think the best thing you can do is get your own mom go to the athletic director. The more people they can get out there the more they will relook the whole thing. You just need to take a breather fight your hardest and go out again next year

I must agree with the girl below me; Politics.
Cheerleaders can be snots, cheer moms are WORSE.
I've been a cheerleader for almost 6 years.
I tried out for my school, and girls who showed up to try outs late, not even dressed out, and eating still made the squad simply cause they are known at the local gyms. Also, many girls who can't hit a high-v to save their lives made it, simply because they cheer competative too.

However, I did make it. I've cheered at local gyms for years and I used to be really good. Latley I've had a mental block, and I'll be honest. At tryouts I didn't throw any tumbling, yet I still managed to make the football squad when girls who did tumble didn't make it.

This is just because I'm known as a cheerleader.
Its all unfair, I know, I feel guilty myself.
As for you, I suggest trying a local competative cheerleading gym if you have the money, time, and will to compete.

If not, just keep practicing, maybe sign up for tumbling classes then next year don't give up, go for it!

Good Luck <3

Sweetheart it's called politics... I know it's not fair but neither is life. Sometimes in life you have to build friendships with people that you will be interacting with. I mean suppose you had made it... would you have refused to talk and hang out with the captain? She probably didn't have ne thing agaisnt you... she just didnt choose you because she didnt know you. It's like when you are on a job interview... you have to show interest in the interviewer as well as in the job. So don't let this get you down. Learn from it... get to know the people that you will be interacting with on a daily basis.
