CHEERLEADING
Nowadays, cheerleading as a discipline and recognized professional sport is becoming more and
more important and definitely more and more popular. It is no longer seen as just a hobby where
pretty girls chant and wave pom-poms in order to entertain the spectators or to motivate and
support a sports team. Today, cheerleading is far more about developing incredible athletic and
gymnastic skills, and inspiring young people to be leaders.
Cheerleading has its roots in American Football. It all began in the 1880s when some male football
supporters got together to find a way to encourage their teams and the crowds of spectators when
their college football teams were playing. It is believed that the first organized cheer took place
during a match at the University of Minnesota. Since then, the discipline of cheerleading has grown
and grown. However, it wasn’t until 1923 that the first women were allowed to become part of the
Minnesota cheerleading team.
There are many different types of cheer, depending on the skills the team wants to develop
and showcase. On the one hand, there is the ‘Traditional Cheer’ which is a short performance
incorporating a variety of organized routines and includes gymnastic elements like dance, jumps,
cheers, stunts, and tumbling. On the other hand, ‘Cheer Dance’ teams incorporate a particular dance
style into their routine, for example, hip-hop or jazz, and also focus on more technical aspects such as
leaps, splits, jumps, tumbling and pyramids.
The purpose of cheerleading is to promote athletic programmes, develop acrobatic and athletic
expertise, encourage teamwork and most importantly to develop leadership skills. That’s why,
in 1948, the National Cheerleaders Association (NCA) was founded, with the idea of training
professional cheerleading instructors, developing different skills in the team members and
promoting prestigious competitions.
