Cheer Captain
Kaylee Guevara

Cheer :)
There are many different opinions out there about cheerleaders, many good, and some bad. Some think of them as the girls standing by the football field, but I think of cheerleading as a symbol of all the spirit that we can share, and a token of appreciation toward the team that’s being cheered on. Cheerleading is such a vital part to many sections of the school. If I was chosen to be a captain for the 2013-2014 year, not only would I make sure that any negative opinions were squashed, but the great qualities the squad holds, are emphasized. I have come along way since i started cheerleading. I remember my first day of cheer and how nervous I was to be trying something I’ve never done before, and how inexperienced I was. Throughout the season, I’ve always worked my hardest to pick up new dances, stunts, and cheers right away. Since most of the new girls joining cheer this year have never done cheer before, I find it a privilege to help them grow to become the best they can be athletically, and with their attitudes. I think an important quality of being a captain is always, always, including everyone! I feel like i dedicated my time to be the best cheerleader i can be and also the best person i can be for myself and i have accomplished it, but im not finished yet. I learn new things everyday, you learn in the process. I want the new girls to be the best they can be, i think i can really help them. Actually, i know i can. It's super hard to be confident and i learned that but i built up my confidence i want these girls to experience their first year of cheer and be like "wow". I've discovered myself in so many ways, i want the new team to do so as well. Cheeleading is something im very passionate about and i just want the world to know that. I know my schedule for the next school year will be a problem considering i might not be able to have cheer sixth period, but i will try my hardest to work something out. I need a chance. I

    We serve all of our teams, as well as our school and community. Coordinating and carrying out all of these tasks can become exhausting to the team. Since the cheerleaders are always serving others, I, as a captain, strive to always serve the cheerleaders. I achieve this goal by several different means. On many teams, younger cheerleaders would be expected to set up mats, poms, signs, and megaphones for practice. However, on our team, the other senior cheerleaders and I make it a point to arrive at practice fifteen minutes early and set up so the others will not have to. In fact, I always like to employ a “first in, last out” mentality for practices and games. Because many parents on our team work during the day, I always make sure that every cheerleader has a ride home after games and practices. If they do not, I drive them to…

    In my opinion I think that Cheerleading should be a competitive sport because cheerleaders work as hard as all other sport players do. For example cheerleaders show muscle, athleticism and agility when practicing and cheering at games. Cheerleaders show muscle because they lift other people they throw and stack people on top of other people to make a pyramid. They show Agility because when doing cheers they have to make sharp and quick movements with their hands and their feet. I don’t think that it’s fair that cheerleading isn’t a competitive sport because it doesn’t involve a ball. That is why I think that cheerleading is just as much as a sport than any other…

    I have participated in varsity cheerleading since my freshman year of high school. Over the course of these years, I have become a leader of the team. Through these four years, our team has struggled with leadership from our seniors in addition to our coaches. My teammates naturally gravitated towards me for leadership because of my positive attitude, a quality our seniors lacked. As a junior, I became the person that everyone would come to for help because I made it my responsibility to make my teammates feel like they were in a fun and safe environment. When our practices would become hostile, I tried my best to relieve the stress of my teammates and bring positive energy. After practices, many of the cheerleaders would come to me to talk…

    I have been the captain of Kanoa Women’s B Team and Cadet Class Leader during 8th grade. In my team, I have more experience, so I always motivate and guide them on the pitch. I enjoy sharing my knowledge that I have gained during my National Team trainings and helping my team improve. In group works, I direct others what to do because it comforts me knowing that everyone is contributing and not letting one person do everything. Moreover, I like taking initiative, such as getting things done and being responsible.…

    Cheerleading

    Tight uniforms, loud voices, pulled back ponytails with bows the size of their head, white tennis shoes, and girls being thrown into the air, is the typical definition of a cheerleader but what exactly is a cheerleader? A cheerleader is a person who is a member of a group who shout out special songs or chants to encourage the team and entertain the crowd during a game in sports such as football or basketball. Is it a sport? I hear a lot of the times that cheerleading isn’t a sport. A sport is an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another for entertainment. That doesn’t exactly make cheerleading qualify as a sport. There is a difference in what some people may make out of it. In some case people say if you compete in competitions cheerleading is a sport, but in other cases if the cheerleader is just the girl that cheers on the crowd for entertainment, this isn’t considered to be an athlete. A cheerleader that competes in competition is considered to be an athlete.…

    Cheer leading has impacted my life in many ways. Not only has it taught me who I am as a person but, it has given me the ability to experience people and their values from all different walks of life.

With the acceptance that I have learned and I am learning I have been able to help people with many different problems they may be facing. These problems range from needing tutoring, somebody to talk to, or just want my opinion things.
