Competitions

Competitions are to games as cheerleading is to football. In other words: Competitions for us are like games for football players. We go compete against other competitive cheerleading squads. We are judged on a scale of points, for example: for stunting you can get oen to five points with five being the highest possible score. At our first competition this year we got second place overall out of four squads. By the way, we have a competition tonight at Spearfish High School at 5 o'clock, come support us!

When we get to the competition we have a scheduled warm up time for five minutes. After we warm up we finish getting ready for the competition; we fix our hair and do our make up and usually take some pictures. When the competition starts we wait until our turn and go perform our hearts out. Some of us have certain squads or dances that we make sure that we see. While we are waiting for awards to start we pretty much just eat and relax.

  6. How many teams usually perform? How long is one routine? What kinds of things are teams docked for? How many competitions are there in the area?
