Helpful Tryout Tips!
- SMILE! You can cover up a lot of mistakes you may make by simply smiling.
- Point your toes! When you’re doing any sort of jump or kick, make sure to point your toes. It makes your jump look cleaner and kick higher.
- Be loud! Cheerleaders are supposed to be loud and bubbly. It’s part of what make cheerleading so engaging and fun to watch. Don’t be afraid to be loud. You are more likely to stand out to your coaches if you are loud during your cheer portion.
- Be sharp! When you practice your motions (i.e. High V, Low V, Punch, etc.), make sure to really squeeze your arm and shoulder muscles to make your motions sharp and clean.
- Show spirit! After you complete a jump, cheer, or dance, you should spirit (think “Go team!” or “Let’s go, Falcons!”)
- Count in your head! Cheerleaders dance in 8-counts. Learn the counts for the tryout dance, and count in your head when you perform. Doing so will keep you on the right time and beat.
- Don’t be nervous! Tryouts can be a little scary, but don’t let your nerves get the best of you. Just breathe and smile!
