3 Cheers for the Team

Question 1
(a) Why is cheerleading an expensive sport?

Because, there are alot of costly things that they need to be equiped with. Things like their pom-poms that cost $50 to $70 for a a pair imported from Taiwan. Other than that, they also need to buy hair products that cost about $50 for a team per competition. New tailored costumes for each competition season that cost $100 to $400 each. They also need to pay for their gymnastic classes and workshops for $50 per lesson. Their tights cost from $2 to $25 that imported from Thailand. Not only that but they also had to buy their training mats that cost $50 each. For their shoes that imported from the United States and Taiwan cost $90 to $150 a pair. And lastly, medical insurance and nutritional supplements and vitamins are also needed forcheer leading. It cost up to $30 to $100 per person for the medical insurance. As for nutritional supplements, it cost up to $50 to $130 perbottle. That is why cheer leading is an expensive sport

(b) What makes cheerleading such a tough sport?

Its such a tough sport as they need hours of practice per week to make their moves perfect.
As they say, practice make perfect. It requires alot of stamina for the trainings. It seems easy
to others, but no its not. Its just as vigorous as other sports such as soccer and rugby.

Question 2.
What is your opinion of cheerleaders? If given a chance, would you join cheerleading? Why/ why not?

In my opinion, cheerleaders have great stamina, mindset, confidence & teamwork. They practice hard, not caring blood, sweat or tears. They go through it all. They all work together as a team, to achieve the same goal. If given a chance, it would like to join cheerleading as it would be a great experience as I had never tried it before. It would also boost my confidence & stamina.I blogged at 5:25 PM
