Cheerleading Pass Again

A sport is an organized association that provides regulated activities to individuals. In most cases these individuals are composed into teams with an identity, mission statement, and goal. Competitive cheerleading is association, and just like the definition of a sport, competitive cheerleading is organized and acknowledge under specific associations, (ISHAA,NCCA,etc.). Those associations regulates the activities of each participant. Every participant is classified by their team name and mascot. With pride each participant and team identify themselves and motivate themselves through their mission statement and goal. Considering, these relative factors, it is evident that competitive cheerleading is a sport. Competitive cheerleading is being

Cheerleading is just one of those activities, which cause many controversial upheavals. Whether it is the outfits they are wearing or the moves they are doing, there is always a problem it seems like. I mean just think about how many times you may have seen something you don’t like or agree with cheerleaders doing. Well I guess that’s just the wonderful world of cheerleading. Cheerleading can be a great sport to become involved in, but many things need to be changed, like their skimpy outfits and sexual moves.

A cheerleader is a person who is a member of a group who shout out special songs or chants to encourage sports teams. (“Cheerleading”. World of SportsScience. Ed.K Lee Lerner and Brenda Wilmoth Lerner. Vol 1. Detroit: Gale,2007.139-141 Gale Virtual Reference Library. 9 Nov. 2016). Cheerleading began in the late 1800s at the University of Princeton, in New Jersey. (“History of Cheerleading.” iSport Online.Cheerleading.iSport 9 Nov. 2016 cheerleading.isport.com/cheerleading-guides/history-of-cheerleading). Cheerleading was in fact created by men at this time. The men who started cheering were called “yell leaders.” Women did not start cheering until 1923, and since then women have dominated cheerleading. Cheerleading started to evolve

Despite this being an art program, the women were also being challenged to write about themselves and create works that expressed their feelings and experiences as women. Some of the bold statements that the program was known for are the “cunt cheerleading” where some of the women would dress as cheerleaders and have the letters on their uniforms collectively spell out “CUNT.” Most of the artwork the program featured had to do with the female body and the misguided perceptions of it. They created bold, sometimes crude works of art that received a lot of attention, which I assume was the purpose in order to bring awareness to this movement. These kinds of radical and audacious works fueled a lot of conversations between women and men, but were

Some may argue cheerleading cannot and will not be a sport, but according to Oxford Dictionary, a sport is defined as an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment . People that do not cheer do not get a true perspective of how competitive the sport truly is. Cheerleading does not get the recognition that the sport deserves. Cheerleading exceeds all requirements  due to competitive nature, physical activity, branches of the olympics, rules that are required, advanced skills, and determination.

Some states have accepted competitive cheerleading as a varsity sport, but cheerleaders still have to fight for recognition as an athlete because their school refuses to recognize cheerleading as a sport. Not to mention other athletes that do not participate in competitive cheerleading do not see why it should be considered a sport, because “it is not as demanding as other sports” (Competitive Cheerleading Fights). The definition of an athlete is “a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina” (Omni Cheer Blog). As a matter of fact competitive cheerleaders meet all the requirements to be considered athletes, so why do they have to continue fighting for recognition as athletes?

I come from a small town in Wisconsin population 556, which means that there never is a big controversy of ideas or beliefs. For some reason though, my senior year of high school was the year that a big controversy happened, over the Clayton Cheerleading Squad. I’m the captain of the Clayton Football Cheerleading Squad, which brings on a lot of responsibility but my last year of cheerleading started out different then normal. This year our football team lost approximately seven players due to a disliked coach. That didn’t affect the cheerleading squad at all; in fact we were having an amazing season. The new girls were catching onto the cheers really quickly and our mounts were going up safely and efficiently. But before we knew it everything

I was listening to this National U pep squad 2014 UAAP Cheer dance Competition. It made me think of how the process of real estate is. The tribal music is like following a specific pattern. The same with real estate, there’s a flow that you have to follow; sometimes it goes crazy scrambled with all information and documents that you have to complete, like this music. But there’s a step by step instruction that you have to follow every step is important, if you miss one process it will not be completed, like the beat. If you miss one component it will not sound good as it does now. But just to do a recap on our lessons, what is real estate? It describes both the physical property and the right attached to it. Do you happen to remember the rights

Cheering, that's all you hear walking down the Manchester Hallways on Friday aAfternoon,October 7. When you walk into the gym you can see everyone divided into their classes Sseniors wore black, Jjuniors wore red, Ffreshmen and Ssophomores wore white. The mascot was doing his job getting everyone pumped up and ready for the events that were coming. The first to come out onto the floor were the cheerleaders they did a great job no one was dropped or hurt in the process of all there stunts. The cheerleaders did a cheer were they shouted out each class and who ever made the most noise won the competition., Tthe Ssophomores won.

“KMS”, lets go warriors. Kapolei Middle just started the new cheer team, to support the other physical education clubs and teams. Cheerleading will be very fun and skillful for the girls. On second thought, it will be dangerous someone could get hurt if they make one mistake. So they need a lot of practice.

Cheerleading varies in many different ways. It could mean yelling, to intense physical activity for sports, audience entertainment, or just for competition. Although it doesn’t seem like it, cheerleading started as an all-male sport. Whereas now, most males think that it is a girls sport. In 1877, Princeton University had a “Princeton Cheer”. It was yelled by the students from the stands. It was also yelled by the baseball and football athletes themselves. Thomas Peebles, Princeton graduate, moved to Minnesota with the idea of organized crowds cheering at football games to the University of Minnesota.

As the athletic director for a college that has decided to sponsor a competitive cheerleading program, the first step to ensure the safest possible environment for these student athletes would be to make certain that we have all of the various types of insurance the school might need to cover an athlete or a coach. Next, I would confirm that the coach was qualified and had certifications from either, the American Association of Cheerleading Coaches and Administrators, the National Council for Spirit Safety and Education, or the United States All-Star Federation. I would also administer background checks on all coaches and support staff. I would also ensure that the coaches are attending every practice where tumbling and stunting is done. Making

Girls and boys alike all over the world enjoy cheerleading. Some people discredit the value of cheerleading by not allowing it to be a sport. Cheerleading involves hard work and dedication. The cheerleaders put in long hours and push themselves to be better at what they love. They try new things and challenge standards with every performance, blowing the minds of their audiences. It teaches people the value of teamwork, positive attitudes, and encouraging others. It requires long hours of practice and attendance at competitions and games just like many other sports including football, basketball, and soccer. People never question whiter those activities are sports. So why do people questions the validity of cheerleading to be a sport? Cheerleading

When most people hear the word cheerleading or cheerleaders they automatically think of preppy, pretty, snotty girls cheering for their boyfriends on the football team. That is only in the movies and not what cheerleading is all about. Cheerleading was invented by Johnny Campbell in 1898 at the University of Minnesota. during a football Johnny Campbell and a few other students started roaring and cheering to energize the and the football team, from there cheerleading has grown a lot, now almost every school nationwide has a cheer team; there are even gyms just for competitive cheerleading.
