yu saying cheering isnt a sport. im 13 and i go to a middle score were i do cheerleading. who ever says cheerleading isnt a sport is completly wrong. how can you say it isnt a sport when we exersise , run , hold girls heavier then us above our head while smiling to whom ever...this girll pissed me off when i read her thing bc she has to life if she like its just about girls "pretending" to dance half naked. 55% of female injures come from cheerleading... we try hard , we practice for 3 hours a night we work as a team and we have fun. just like any other SPORTTTT!!!
