Tips from our Readers
- If you don't make the team, be friendly to the people who did. Chances are you can try out again next year and if you have friends on the team that can influence their decision.
- Ask a more experienced cheerleader to help you with what you need to know. They can also tell you about what to expect at cheer tryouts.
