A note from the author:“Today, 80 percent of schools in America have a cheerleading squad. In fact, according to current statistics, there are 1.2 million cheerleaders ages 6-11 in the United States, and another 1.6 million ages 12-17. Cheerleading has been called the fastest-growing sport in the U.S., and it's easy to see why. With the addition of All-Star cheer squads, girls are now able to showcase their athletic ability, showmanship, and spirit in All-Star cheer competitions, as well as support their home team in traditional game settings. More and more girls are becoming cheerleaders!“Media moguls have picked up on this growing subculture of cheerleaders, which is obvious by the success of such reality shows: “Cheerleader Nation,” “Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team” and “Cheer Stars” to name a few. “Pick up a copy of Get Your Spirit On! and begin your 40-week journey.
