1a) Why is cheerleading an expensive sport?
b) What makes cheerleading such a tough sport?
2b)What is your opinion of cheerleaders? If given a chance, would you join cheerleading? Why/ why not?
ANSWER
1a) It is an expensive sport because it need a megawatt smile which is priceless, hair products cost 50 dollars for a team per competition, medical insurance cost 30 to 100 dollars mostly covered by school and organisations. Just a bottle of nutritional supplements and vitamins cost 50 to 130 dollars. Their tailored costumes for each season needs 100 to 400 dollars as some hire tailor from Thailand. They also needs to have gymnastics classes and workshop which per session cost 50 dollars and at last is the tights which cost 2 to 25 dollars which also imported from Thailand.
1b) Cheerleading needs a hefty financial commitment, it really a team sport which needs team work to get stunts done. It is challenging and requires resilience, perseverance and passion.
2) I think that chearleaders must have teamwork, responsibility, passion, resilience and so on if one of the member do not have any teamwork the whole thing will not be successful. To be a good chearleaders there are a lots of failure you must have if not you will never learnt how to cope with it. I would not want to join cheerleading even i though i have a chance because i am not interested in that and i do not think that i am suitable in the particular sports. To be a chearleaders, you must have the courage for being thrown up in the mid-air while doing some tricks. It will injure yourself when you are practice some particular stunt and need a lots of medical to recover and it will cost you a lot of money.
