Cheerleading

No. Many people believe that pom-poms should have a "plural-plural." But, "pom-poms" is the same, whether it is one set or a hundred sets. If there are two or more pom-poms its just pom-poms.

As a comparison, it would be like asking if one dog is a dog should two dogs be referred to as dog dog.

Also, the singular of pom-pom is pom-pom. It comes from the French word pompon. Although some people will tell you that the singular is just "pom," this is not true. You can have one pom-pom, or many pom-poms.

Are you a choach or cheerleader? If you are a coach, you can find a LOT of good ones online.

If you are a cheerleader, any sports store really, like best sports, foot locker, acadamy, ect.

Both sports are typically considered "girlie" even through both have many male participants. It depends on what type of dance you are talking about. Ballet is maybe less girlie than cheerleading, but cheering and hip hop have many similarities

George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, Dwight D. Eisenhower were at some point on a cheerleading squad in high school.

Cheerleaders use pompom's, megaphones, signs, and music. They need the music for the beat so they can do there dance and know the counts. Pompom's are for fun. Megaphones are so they can get your attention. And the signs are for if you can hear what they say, you can see it.

Buy any color pom poms and then take black spray paint and spray them let them dry and TA DA!! You have black poms poms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Two sisters were the first black cheerleaders. They cheered for the Dallas Cowboys. Their names are Vonceil and Vanessa Baker. Vonceil was the first and made the squad for the 1972-1973 season.

People think of the "ideal" cheerleader as a female, because it was females that started the sport. On terms of technicality, it may be easier for a female cheerleader to tumble because they phisically have less body to flip around. It may also be less complicated for girls to stunt. In terms of watching the sport ( college ), people like to watch girls in skimpy uniforms, for obvious reasons.

actually that is false the first cheerleader was a male (Thomas Peebles was the first cheerleader) also males a normally better cheerleaders they have higher jumps better tumbling throw higher baskets that is why most colleges are co-ed the reason why the "ideal" cheerleader is a female is because people dont look at cheerleading as a competing sport they think its people at games running around saying cheers and they would rather look at a girl in a skirt then a males also most people have never even seen a real comp

I think that is possible. I mean it depends how old you are and how competitive you are. Like a middle school cheerleader might not know how to do one but i am sure that all college cheerleaders do.

: cheerleading can be used for football and basketball games. but it can also be all-star cheerleading. all-star cheerleading is cheerleading that you compete against all squads and it is all year round. there are like 20 compeitions that you attend each season. you can go check out my all-star cheerleading team at : http://www.marylandtwisters.com

a good cheerleading question would be>> Lord, thank you for this lovely opportunity for us cheerleaders, thank you for not letting us get hurt when we did our stunt today. help us practice hard and be confident. give us the guidance that we need for cheerleading. amen.

Most times hit by a pitch.

The difference is that a back tuck is where you jump in the air and basically do a backwards somersault. A back handspring is where you prep, the jump backwards ( like when you start a race that is backstroke) and put your hands on the floor, then keep going backwards for the rest of the rotation until you get back to a standing position.

There is no defined weight for a cheerleader. A healthy middle schooler should way from 85-120 pounds depending on age and height

Tumbling goes all the way back to ancient Persia, China, and Egypt, before AD. It was a form of entertainment in stage plays, operas, and circuses. The sport of tumbling itself began as a competition in the late 1800's. The first U.S. national competition on record was in 1886. It has been made part of the International Trampoline Federation and is the part of the world trampoline championships since 1976. Also, it is completed every four years at the world games.

You can start cheerleading at any age, and there are competitive squads for kids as young as 4 or 5

Of course not! I am a cheerleader and I do not tumble. But during tryouts you get more points and have a better chance of making the squad if you do ! Also a tumbler can be a great asset to the team! But hey, everyone can't do everything! You can be the most spirited! Good luck In cheerleading:)

I got the 2 pound ones. I wear them to school, it helps cause I walk up steps all day. Also running in them helps, and doing all your jumps (pike,toetouch,etc.) in them. If you take gymnastics in them also help you a lot!!!!

$1000-$10000

a lot. I know..

Physically if young girls particiate in competition cheer they will be very fit. I know from experience that there is much more then appears to the eye. You get strength training from lifting other girls. You are also get cardio training from all of the running you will be doing. Muscle building comes from all of the push-ups and sit ups. Mentally is a whole different ball park however. The one huge thing that can raise a young girls self esteem is from knowing that she has every girl in that whole gym behind her cheering her on including the coaches. Ya cheer is very dramatic but there is nothing any of the girls wouldn't do for each other. And simply knowing that u always have some one backing you up gives you a sence of self worth and therefore apears in a young girls mental state.

There are no cheerleader celebrities, but there are cheerleader girls. If u wanna know which girl in ur school (cheerleader) is hot then just see if she wears mini-skirts, if she's got nice hair, if she hangs out with popular people, if she dates hot guys... By the way no offence but u must be pretty dum if u don't know who is a hot cheerleader

There is no set number that there HAS to be at the end of each season....it is usually 36 but it does not have to be. In 2007 there were 38,now in 2008-09 I belive there are 36 ____________________________________________________________________ 38 cheerleaders is the the most they can have on the squad, but their ideal squad is 32 according to Keli Finglass; Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Director.

you learn to cheer and have alot of fun with your squad. :)

cheerleading is definitely a sport. the definition of sport is anything that has competition to it. plus cheerleaders can get hurt just as bad as football players. in football if you miss a catch all you miss is da ball...but in cheerleading if you miss a catch den you miss da athlete. now which one sounds more dangerous????????? and when football players get tackled dey have pads on and stuff. cheerleaders dont have anything but their uniforms are. cheerleading is actually very dangerous. cheerleading is definitely a sport. the definition of sport is anything that has competition to it. plus cheerleaders can get hurt just as bad as football players. in football if you miss a catch all you miss is da ball...but in cheerleading if you miss a catch den you miss da athlete. now which one sounds more dangerous????????? and when football players get tackled dey have pads on and stuff. cheerleaders dont have anything but their uniforms are. cheerleading is actually very dangerous.
