How can the crowd take three cheerleaders seriously. If the cheerleaders are incapable of getting the crowd into it, they are not cheerleaders. When I see the entire squad at a game acting like they are organized and know what they are doing, I'll take them seriously. NCA or UCA Nationals are nice, but there is too much emphasis on gymnastics and precious little on crowd participation at games. If the majority of the squad cannot make a game none of the cheerleaders should be out there. It looks bush league. If the cheerleaders can't make the commitment to be at a majority of the games then they have no business being on the squad no matter how well they can do basket tosses, liberties, paper dolls, etc.
