No, because you stand on each other and do dancy stuff.
Another Opinion:
I definitely believe Cheerleading should be perceived as a sport. Cheerleading has become so much more than just standing on the sideline with pom pons and doing "dancy stuff" Cheerleaders nowadays (both school and All Star) train for 5-12 hours each weak. They practice advanced tumbling moves much like a gymnast, jumps, and complicated and dangerous stunts. All this takes a great ammount of physical strength and stamina, not to mention the extra flexibility and agility cheerleaders have to have. There's really no good reason why people say that cheerleading isn't a sport, other than they don't really know what it is, or they're stuck in a stereotype
Cheerleading is great sport for kids. I used to do cheerleading and I had an amazing time. Most people dont think that cheerleading is a very athletic sport, but there's alot more to cheerleaders than screaming and jumping
Most people do not know that cheerleading began as a boys only sport when it was first organized. then girls started joining gradually, and it became what it is today.
Cheerleading is NOT an amateur sport, but everyone thinks it is. People probably think this because only girls participate in this sport most of the time. But the truth is, cheerleading is much harder than most sports. Like I say, "athletes lift weights, cheerleaders lift athletes."
cheerleading
I would say it's a 50/50 toss up. Obviously cheerleaders and their family and friends think it's a sport. Many people in the past few years have come to see cheerleading as a sport because competitive cheerleading has become so mainstream. However, many people who only think of traditional lead-the-crowd cheering, so not believe it is a sport
I would say that there isn't a definite percent, since a lot of people do not consider cheerleading to be a sport. It has been proven however, to be the most dangerous sport for female athletes. This is mostly due to the fact that cheerleading results in more serious injuries than other sports. Permanent back injuries are common as well as bone breaks, sprains, and muscle strains.
Because not only is it one of the most dangerous sports out there, it is quickly becoming one of the most popular sports between females and males, alike. Many people put their lives on the line daily to perform the outrageously dangerous and breath-taking tricks that they make look easy just for the sport they love. If you still aren't a believer, I recommend youtubing Maryland Twisters F5. THATS why cheerleading should be considered a sport.
ABSOLUTELY!! Cheerleading is way more complicated than most people seem to think. The average male cheerleader is 10 times stronger than a football player.
Statistics show that cheerleading is THE most dangerous sport in the US with more youth and female injuries than any other sport. Others that come close are Rugby, Ice Hockey, and Tackle Football
Cheerleading is the most laziest sports in the world
Basketball because you can get elbowed and jam your fingers
