what youll need depends on the criteria of the coach. but most of the time, you need at least a backhandspring, if not a back tuck. and yes, it takes a lot of hard work and dedication. if hard work is too much, then cheerleading is not the sport for you, sorry. but good luck with your tryouts.

You need to at least be able to do a round off ,cart wheel, split, high v jumps you need to be able to pick up dance step easy and you need to be able to dance ,at your try out make eye contact with the judges and smile always smiles with your words let them be loud and sharp make sure your arms are tight during all movement and if you mess up keep going it is better to follow threw them just stop sometime mistakes aren't even notice ya know , go t o your try out with the frame of mind you got this//// as far as what happens if you make it ..yes it is hard work but it is worth it some teams practice 4 nights aweek for two hours and games on Fridays but believe me it is worth it , your body will stay in Sharp and your social life will bloom, however do not let your head blow up, remember cheerleaders are fun loving care free girls so don't become a stuck up snob remember how bad you wanted this because their is another freshman in your shoes and also always remember to work hard and don't get lazy their is always someone younger and stronger that wants it more then you do so stay on your toes and best wishes to you
