Questions & AnswersFor tryouts, before you even begin, you're going to want to find out what that coach is looking for at your school. Whether it's an all star team or a school team, you need to find out what that coach is looking for. Next, you need to find out what you need to work on. Whether you need to join a tumbling class, work on your splits or your jumps, your kicks, or your tumbling. You need to find out what different key aspects you need to work on for you personally. While you're in your tryouts, we have this thing that we like to call the 3 S's. Okay. Those are smiles, spirit, and speronality. Those are the 3 S's that you can use while you're in your tryout. Make sure you're showing those pearly whites. Once again, smile like crazy. Of course, as a cheerleader, you need to be super spirited. All of the judges while you're in tryouts will be looking for spiritness. The next thing that I already said was spersonality. We just like to mix the spirit and personality together to make it one and it's a combination. Remember the 3 S's while you're in tryouts. After tryouts, you're going to want to look for the postage, where they're going to having the list out for who made the squad. Make sure you're prepared for other girls whether they made it or not, be prepared for yourself to know what you're expecting, and just look out for that. Basically, at your tryout just know what you're doing, know what you're looking, be yourself because that's what the judges love. Just go all for it. Go all out and you'll do great.
