Facial impressions are hard to hide. Your face projects your attitude. People will always respect you when you do the very best you can with whatever God given athletic ability and effort you put into whatever you are doing. Everyone is going to think, you look good.
To be confident and enthusiastic you must act confident and enthusiastic. This applies to middle school cheer, Pop Warner or whatever has cheer tryouts you are going to be part of. You have to remember that technique is everything. For example, if you do not have good jumps, which okay.
Jumps are hard. Cheerleading Snobs get knock off teams every year by new cheerleaders with great attitudes and passion for what they are doing.
As long as you have good technique and like good motions with your jumps, like you are executing the arm motions perfectly and you are sharp, you are smiling.
I could care less about how far your legs go up. Attitude is the most important part of life and that includes cheerleading. They want to know that you have good technique. So just like study, study, study, how your program wants you to do that, jump and execute that well. I emphasize this in so many of my cheer advice, videos, and so many of my cheer tryout videos. Be happy. Have a positive attitude.
Act like you want to be there. Greet the judges, be peppy. Talk to the other girls, be super nice show that you want to be there. You want to make sure that you are really eager to learn. This one is super, super important. You want to show that you want to learn how to do this stuff that you want to be a compete cheerleader.
You are willing to be used however is best for the team. That you are so down to base, fly, front, spot, back, spot squat in the back, like be down for anything. Just be so eager to be a part of the team. The coach wants someone who is okay with not being a flier or okay, with being a back spot. Your chances of making the team will go down.
If you go into tryouts and you say, Oh no, I could only be a flyer. I need to be a flyer. This is the entitlement attitude that coaches are burnt out with. Sometimes coaches ask me to main base. You want to seem like you belong there? The real secret is being confident within yourself, because believe me, you can do it and you can do anything when you learn how to control your self-talk and mindsets.
I believe that you can do anything. There was this one girl who was trying out for cheer team. I was judging this tryout. She had never been on a cheer team before.
All the judges could literally tell how bad she wanted to be on the team. Everyone got such good vibes from her. Maybe it is not cheerleading, but you have a path, a passion, and if you try a lot of things, you will find it. There were other girls who had more skills than this girl, her name was Lisa. But Lisa made the team because of her willingness to work, be a team player and her exceptional attitude.
Many more experienced and talented girls tried out. They acted entitled. My coach was the one who picked her out. She was like, yes, we want her. I believe in you. This is why I personally am a really good learner.
Be sure to enunciate. Facials: Smile and show off your confidence! Everybody trying out will be nervous, but smiling can boost your energy.
Cheerleaders have to smile through tough games and competitions, so the tryout is good practice. Motions: When you perform the cheer, be aware of how you are standing.
Dancing: Some tryouts may include learning a few counts of a dance, which is usually something short and easy that the squad might do with a cheer during halftime. Jumping, Tumbling, and Stunting: If tryouts involve jumping or stunting, the senior members will walk you through the steps. For tumbling , you may be asked to do somersaults, cartwheels, or handstands.

Think about it… your school has more than likely been around for several years and holds a strong tradition, there are many alumni and loyal fans in the community who attend, the student body loves being involved in school spirit, and the players are one hundred percent dedicated because they absolutely love the sport they are playing.
Cheering at games can be different at every high school, but the spirit is always high. Most squads will cheer for football and basketball only, but many cheerleading squads are now making appearances at baseball games, soccer games, volleyball games, and wrestling matches. No matter what school you cheer for or how many athletic teams your squad supports, the spirit range is always topnotch at the high school level.
There will be pep rallies, homecoming, and spirit days that most of the student body will participate in. This means you should always keep good grades, have nice behavior, and be someone for others to look up to. You will more than likely be given a list of rules that you must abide by throughout the year to remain on the cheerleading squad, and your cheer coaches and advisors will check on a regular basis to make sure you are living up to the standards they have set.
This may include maintaining a certain grade point average, showing up for time on class, always having homework and maybe even being involved in a few on-campus activities or completing a certain number of community service hours. They are only trying to help you to excel and get you prepared for the future; therefore, you should be grateful. Social Situations As a top representative of your school, you will become a role model to many.
Little girls dressed in cheerleading uniforms and mocking you through the fence at games will always have their eyes on you. People in the community will recognize you from your many appearances in town and at the games.
And teachers, staff, coaches, and students from your school will always notice what you do because you are a cheerleader. So, no matter where you are, you should always present yourself in a classy and professional manner because you never know who may be watching.
