Cheerleading results in 66% of women's catastrophic injuries, however due to the fewer number of male participants, there are no statistics on men. In the category of Non Extreme Sports(Extreme sports being street luge, bull riding, heli skiing...) Cheerleading is currently the 3rd most dangerous sport in the world, only under Rugby and Cave Diving. This is because of the stunting and tumbling elements. These involve lifting or throwing a girl sometimes as high as 40 feet in the air. Tumbling is gymnastics which can cause injury if the technique is not proper
Cheerleading can be dangerous.
I'm a cheerleader, and if you dont stretch enough, or if you don't trust your teammates, things can go wrong.
Sometimes, freak accidents happen. You're lifting your flyer one minute, and the next, he/she's falling on top of you. Sometimes, you just come down from a lift weird, and you can mess up anything if you aren't paying attention.
Hope this helps :

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

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."
There are thousands of schools across the country that have cheerleading, but very few consider it a sport. 17 of 50 states consider cheerleading a sport
