Guys, How Did You Get Involved In Cheerleading?

This question is for boys only: how did you become a cheerleader?

 

Cp not around to reply but he got started by watching his sisters pop warner team and learning the cheers. Seemed to enjoy it a lot so we signed him up. Was around 6-7 at the time.


**Honest bro, true story**

 

My mom wanted my sister and I to be more social so she took my older sister to the local cheer gym.

After the season she asked me if I wanted to join too. I did! The rest is history.

My mom had no idea what she got herself into!

 

I wish more dads were like you. Most would be freaked out, think their son is confused and shove a football into his hands.

 

Smart mom

Don't get me wrong, I had some hesitation at first and we did try other sports with him but it always came back to cheer. Though tough to begin with for me ultimately I am glad he found a sport he is passionate about and makes him happy.

i want to shimmy more but am limited to one on the rating scale thingie lol (yes i said thingie)... so here's five more!!!

 

I went along to my friend's tryout cause she would always talk about it at school. Needless to say I fell in love with the sport and four years later I still am in love with it (longest I've stuck to any type of sport as well)

 

My friend always talked about it at school so I joined a prep team the first year they had them and fell in love and so did my and my parents' wallets.

 

I think this isn't exactly what you were asking.

I am not a male nor a parent of males. Bowing out!

 

Do you think she was asking how the guys got into cheer?

Oops sorry! Didn't read the question right!

 

The "this question is for boys only" clued me in.

 

My friend invited me to their Showoffs and I thought it looked pretty cool and I wanted to learn how to tumble

 

My son was going to to a boys gymnastics class .. They lost the coach .. & the only other gym was a cheer gym . We signed him up for tumbling classes & now he's in Cheer class too .

I was a freshman in high school. I asked all my friends if I should do cheer and the votes were unanimous. (I was always kinda interested. I used to do round off janky, crooked back handsprings for fun) so I went back home to watch cheer videos. Came across Top Gun 2010 and Senior Elite 2010... I fell in love.

I went to a local all-star gym for private lessons and tried to learn as much tumbling as I could before my high school try-outs. I made the team as an alternate -_-

So naturally I dropped that and went back to be on that all-star gym's junior 3 team. That next year I was on a worlds level 5. Been addicted since.
