NOT COMPETITIVE? YEAH RIGHT!

If two of my daughters read this article, and were to meet this 'expert' on the street, I think they could kick his ass. Well...I guess it's just the heading of the article...'cheerleading is NOT competitive'...that just reads wrong.

Julie and Joni were both cheerleaders in high school and both were active on the cheerleader/dance squads. Both were in competitions that qualified them to attend the cheerleading finals in Orlando, Florida. Julie's squad, I believe, finished in the top 10...in the country.

Both of them practiced, and practiced, and practiced long hours...every day. They were in great physical shape. They were dedicated to their sport. For someone to tell them it wasn't 'competitive'...would be a dangerous remark.

Sometimes...people who think they are 'experts'....aren't.
