cheerleading is an expensive sport due to their costumes. a good material for a costume will for sure give them a good look to attract the audience. it goes the same to their shoes. cheerleading is an hyper sport and the shoes is important or them because comfort come first. they wont be able to put a great performance if they felt uncomfartable. their hair should look good too like i said, they need to look as good as they can to attract audience or judges and with this, the girls might need several accessories, hair spray and so on and for the guys, they need hair gel. due to the hyperness, they need vitamins which actually cost $50 to $130 per bottle. and with that hyperness, they might trip and schools and organisation needs to pay an amount of money.
(b) What makes cheerleading such a tough sport?
Firstly, it is not easy to set up the steps and it really take weeks and patience. cheer leaders need to use a lot of energy in order to do their best. It requires teamwork to get stunts done. it is not that tough as when we were doing the steps, all we need to think is just have fun but even though it aint tough, its quite a tiring as it requires a lot of training.
What is your opinion of cheerleaders? If given a chance, would you join cheerleading? Why/ why not?
To me, they are energetic people with a strong will and spirits. they will never failed to put a smile during a performance. if i were to be given a chance to join cheerleading, i would reject it. firstly their costumes are too open and by right, it is wrong for Muslims people to where those kind of clothes. yes i admit that cheerleading is an interesting sports but it uses alot of energy besides that, i am concern about my studies as cheerleading needs alot of training. they even being train five times a week, and it sounds really tiring to me.
