text: cheerleading? who here agrees with me that cheerleading is a sport? cheerleading is definitely a sport and i really don't think we get the credit that we deserve. we work our butts off 5 or 6 days of a 7 day week, support football, basketball, wrestling, soccer...(almost all sports!) we tumble, dance, and stunt.  a sport is a competitive physical activity right? well, isn't that basically what cheer is? cheer is competitive as well as physical.... we attend competitions, just as football players compete in games. cheer is one of the most hardcore sports out there! not to mention the most dangerous! people really need to cut us a break. whoever says cheer is not a sport serisously needs to reevauate what a sport actually is!
