Limiting practice time? That just increases the chances of injury in a real competition. It takes practice to get a move right. Doing dangerous stunts with little rehearsal is terrifying in comparison to doing dangerous stunts after months of rigorous preparation.

This isn’t fair, you don’t limit how a footballer kicks the ball incase it hits someone on the head so why do it with cheer. So long as people are careful things will be fine and anything that happens is by accident. Anyone who does Cheer knows this.

Limits on practice time? Limiting our practice time completely increases the risk of injury at competition. Stunts take time and we need our time to practice and improve them. Mandatory Physicals? I know that every school I've seen do cheer has to have a physical and also everyone on my competitive team has to have one, but I guess that's just my team? Probably not. Trained coaches? Our coaches are completely certified... Strict safety rules? We have rules you just can't give a 6 page long list of them, safety is important but we usually know what we're doing and rules will just take down how good cheers look.

I was a varsity male cheerleader for Florida State University. I was one of the seven guys and seven girls that made-up the varsity squad . It was extremely difficult to make the team with practices and schooling and worried about having enough money to afford to stay in school for it was expensive. Problems were always around . But when I made the team it was truly one of the best exciting moments of my whole entire life. The requirements in becoming a cheerleader in today's world have become so advanced that I still would of be able to make the squad. I loved the tumbling , flips trampoline all that stuff. Still do, but I'm old now and the body didn't do like it used to. The girls part have gone over the top with all the new stunts and their part I don't at all envy. It's extremely dangerous the acrobatics that they do in today's cheering world. It's really outragious the flips , leg extensions and heights that they do all their stuff. For the guys have an enormous responsibility in spotting and catching these girls and it's actually a very nerve racking job. To be at the right place at exactly the right time takes tons of practice let alone to be constantly in sync with the everyone else in timing is almost death defying. My partner was a trip delta bitch. A rich girl who was no fun. Absorbed in only herself and she had a tendency to kick and slap me when she wasn't satisfied. I remember a few instances where it became prevelent To me , I hated working with her. She was a prudent bitch. Always always complaining and the other girls got so fed up with her bullshit over the course of the season. Anyhow, we were performing a new stunt. She was flying high as I lifted her into the air sideways. Well, she went that way and I went the other way , out of confusion as she was supposed to land stretched out in my arms flexed out. Well I remember she went pretty high and I held out my arms to catch her and she sent the wrong way and came slamming down on her side and face into the hard ground. To me and everybody else, it was funny. It shut her bitchy mouth for a while. I couldn't wait for the season to be over with because she made everything and everybody so miserable.

Football can kill people too. But no i guess that is "normal." 😒😒 Let along gymnastics is kinda (but not really) the same as cheerleading. Besides cheerleading isn't just flipping people around or breaking body parts, it teaches US cheerleaders to be physically and mentally strong. Also to be kind, have good sportsmanship, and work as a team ( even if you hate your teammates ) I just don't like how cheerleading gets treated. It either boys saying "Its not a sport" or other people saying "its dangerous. Someone can be killed!!" Like, that is what practice is for. Its so annoying and not needed.

Okay let me just say something. In football you are supposed to tackle each other to get the ball, boxing and wrestling you are supposed to hurt each other, but cheerleading can’t be the way it is? The bases and backspots do everything they need to do to catch their flyers. When I based before, my flyer started falling and I didn’t let her fall and I got a bloody nose, I sprained my ankle, I injured my knee, fell on my back, but the more we get hurt, the more we want to cheer so we can fix the problems. I just don’t understand why the sports you are purposely hurting each other is okay but cheerleading isn’t. Any cheerleaders here that agree?
@rowanbeary97717 жыл бұрын

Millions and Millions of girls and guys cheer every week of the year without injury. A relatively small percentage get injuries. Things happen in life, sports, and yes,.. Cheer. But do we just stop living life,.. do we we cower and live in a bubble. Do we regulate everything and anything that has risk? My Daughter is a Flyer and she just got dropped at practice today. Being a Flyer or base take strength, discipline, physical and mental toughness, and teamwork. These are great traits to learn through cheer. I worry as a parent, but am proud that my daughter is a flyer. I raced motocross when I was young and broke several bones, and had a major concussion which I woke up in the hospital 2 days after the accident,.. but I would race all over again.

Cheer is safe. It's just the difficulty. You wouldn't go throwing cheerleaders around without mats unless you're really trained.

Ok but there is rules though? Some stunts are illegal for the less trained levels

(0:41) the only reason that cheerleader almost broke her neck was because someone allowed her to perform a dangerous stunt that she wasn't properly trained for

What is wrong with these people I have never been hurt and I’m a base and I’ve been cheering for 4 years like what the heck
@billie-jeanlewis38846 жыл бұрын
Limited practice times? Are you serious! I’m a cheerleader and sure there is a chance of you getting hurt but come on you can get hurt in literally any sport. In football they literally tackle people to the ground. You might fall in cheerleading or get injured but we push through the pain and get the task down.

It’s only gone up because people from the 80s weren’t doing the things that we are. Nobody cared about cheerleading, it was mostly just court-side candy. Now it’s an actual sport and people can’t handle it.

Cheerleading especially competitive cheerleading is a really grueling sport and getting injured is part of it

Another thing to think about is how when you are competing there is litterley TRAINED coaches watching over you

Cheer- athletic competition, not a sport. There’s a difference between the two.

I as well hate this I am a competitive cheerleader for Cali and Gea and all I can say is we live for this sport and if they bore it down for us making practices short and making us loose our beloved coaches to dumb rules then f the society we pay to live this and if other parents think cheer is to dangerous for there child then they dont need to cheer but don't punish us because of your opinion! I mean if we thought it was to dangerous we wouldn't do it. Plus there are almost twice as many injuries with gymnastics but I don't see society beating at them with a stick! I have been injured many times including breaking a ankle arm wrist dislocated and torn my knee cap torn my acl and counters other injuries but I keep coming back just like all the other cheerleaders that also don't think its to dangerous. we comity our lives to this I mean I had to move to California without my parents and go to some random school and live with random cheer parents just to be on a team that pushes me beyond my limits, but they wont een be open any more if teas rules come into affect. People look up to the teams that are hard and do insane things doesn't that say soothing by its self. o ya and if we came second to football than I think football should be changed before us. Well all I can say to wrap this up is don't take away the one thing that makes our like exciting just because of someone's opinion!

Chill. It's not competitive they're talking about these news meat heads have no clue what any of this means. They're putting restrictions on high school. They have no control over all star because all star you choose to be there by paying gym fees

Why do people not understand that cheer isn't the problem it's either the base is not doing their job the back spots not doing their job or the Flyers not doing their job it takes four people to keep a stunt in the air and one person to make it mess up

as a all-star cheerleader of 6 years i agree yes its dangerous but this is stupid/funny, we train for weeks learning how to do stuff safely and taught how to catch the stunts, like the falls they showed could have been easily prevented and they also weren't that bad. also that video of the girl tumbling, that's not all-star cheer we don't claim her and her technique ….

They act like cheerleaders don't even know what they're doing and obviously we do. All star teams, at least. There are good high school teams out there but sometimes the school doesn't necessarily have the resources to hire a good coach. I know at our middle school, the cheer coach has never even done cheer before, her daughter has just been on the team for four years and she got promoted to coach. They need more regulations on that.

What is a sport? Anything you engage in that you have to practice to get better Is a sport, in my opinion. Fishing is a sport, hunting is a sport, basketball is a sport, golf is a sport, as far as I’m concerned chess is a sport. So yes cheerleading is a sport.
