cheering in college
Hey guys, I'm a senior in HS and I have been thinking about cheering in college. Overall I say I'm a pretty damn good cheerleader. I'm always the one to start the spiriting on the sidelines and I have the best jumps on the squad. I have good arm placements and I learn cheers and dances pretty fast. The only thing is I'm not the great on my faces, I smile, but I don't make good face expressions. I'm cheering the in Capital one bowl and the pro bowl in the coming months. I can tumble, but getting more tricks. I have a standing back hand spring, round off back hand springs, sometimes I will do three, just depends in I feel like I can. I have my round off back tuck, and I am currently working on my standing back tuck. So I think I have the skills to be a college cheerleader.
Can anyone who has cheered in college or am currently tell me the steps I need to take to make my wish come true? Thank you!

Whether or not you make the team, and the requirements you need to make the team, all depends on what college you are wanting to cheer for.
For example, if you wanted to cheer for UK, you would most likely need a standing tuck, and probably a full. You would also need to know how to fly in partner stunts.
But if you wanted to cheer for a smaller college, like UVA-Wise (Near where I live) you wouldn't have to know how to tumble at all. Though it would help, it wouldn't be a requirement.
As long as you don't look bored on your face, not making crazy facials shouldn't keep you from making any team. I think you sound like an amazing cheerleader, and if you stay that confident during your tryouts, I don't see why you wouldn't make any team.
Be sure to keep practicing your tumbling. The better it is, the more likely you will make the team. Work on your facials too. They shouldn't be practiced and rehearsed, it should just come to you when your cheering for your team. Talk to the college you are wanting to attend and find out the requirements you will need. Then practice, practice, practice it! =]
