Cheer Tryouts

Like my fellow classmate Melissa Sadler, I am also very excited/nervous for cheer tryouts.  I can't believe that it is almost time to tryout again, because it seems like the season just ended! This year, I was a member of the JV Fall Cheerleading Squad; the team that cheers at the JV football games.  I absolutely loved cheering this year because I learned a lot about teamwork, and became more responsible.  I also became a lot closer to the other 13 girls on the team.  Cheering this year was definitely one of the best parts of Freshman year, and I really hope that I will make the team again, and have the opportunity to become an even better cheerleader next year!

To prepare for tryouts, which are in about 2 weeks, I have been stretching, and practicing my jumps and tumbling.  I hadn't really stretched since the season ended in November, and I found that I was extremely tight.  I am a little worried about tryouts because there are many 8th grade girls trying out who do competitive cheer, and are very good.  But, since I was on the team last year, I have a good chance of making it.  I am really looking forward to tryouts and getting back into cheer again.

  1. Sarah, I am so glad you decided to try out again! I'm sure we will all make it (Hopefully). If not all of us do, then it won't be the same. I'm also glad that there isn't a specific number for the team to be because there are so many great girls trying out this year. I have a feeling though, that whatever happens, the team will be amazing.

  2. Sarah, I'm in the same boat as you. But I have a feeling everything is going to work out regardless, lets just hope for the best.
