Being A Team

The number one thing in cheerleading is being a team. You do everything together and you take so much out of it and learn from each one of your team mates. You fight with them like they are your own siblings, you cry to them or with them, your with them more than your with your own family. Your cheer team or any kind of team is seriously your second family. The 5 years I have cheered my number one supporter (next to my parents) was my squad. They cheer you on, they give you confidencde, they got your back, they stick with you, and your with them forever. While being captain I realized that almost every desicion I made was with my team or my teams imput on something. With cheerleading being an almost year around sport you do everything with eachother and you know that they will always be there. You learn as a team, you compete as a team, you cry as a team, you laugh as a team, you go out as a team, and you go in as a team you do everything with your team. Those girls/boy will always be a part of me for the rest of my life. I met my bestfriends in cheerleading and im still bestfriends with them today. Always put your team first !

  1. I totally agree with a team being like a "second family." Everything you listed like learning from one another, fighting with them, crying with them, being with them more than your own family, that is all true. I was in soccer for 4 years and I went through the same thing with my team. They will always be a part of my life too!

  2. I'm glad cheerleading has been such an uplifting experience for you, opening doors to new friends, confidence, and learning to work as a team.
