Sheerleaders sheer for their sports team.
We boost team spirit and encourage our team to win.
This sport it's not just to girls!
The first cheer was invented in 1880 at a Princeton University American football game.
A glamourous sport.
Being a cheerleader it's the dream of a lot of teenager girls in the USA.
