The Importance Of Being A Cheerleader

Even though it sounds pretty corny and cliche, the team next year is going to be nowhere near the same without you. You’re always so supportive of each and every single girl on the team and I know that everybody can trust you the most with any problem that they have, whether it be on the cheer time or their personal life. You’re always there for the team, helping out in any way possible, whether it be fixing a whole pyramid with counts five minutes before halftime or by being a representative for our team at every orientation or school event. You represent exactly what a cheerleader should be, always showing school spirit, always trying to encourage the team to be friends with one another, showing enthusiasm during sidelines and spiriting instead of just waiting for halftime, and always expressing a kind charisma no matter what is going on in your personal life.
Regardless of the cliques, you always make sure everyone is included in a fair way, even if that means taking a spot you’d rather not have just so that somebody has a spot at all. You make the team fair by ignoring how high of a level someone is on world cup and focusing on who is actually trying to do their best. You’re always putting a smile on someone's face with your down to earth, funny personality. You balance coaching a peewee team, being captain, and high school/college so well that you make it look easy, you prove that it can be managed. You’re always trying to make this team fun and you have no idea how awesome that is for all the girls afraid to speak up.This team is losing a truly amazing teammate, friends, and captain. I hope that next year's seniors will follow in your footsteps in everything that you do. Thank you for being one of the only people who made me feel welcome on my first
