The Cheer Bug
In a blog post at American Cheerleader, Alex Neason talks about what makes her so obsessed with cheerleading.
My non-cheerleader friends and family often ask me what it is about cheerleading that has me so obsessed. One of the first aspects of the sport that attracted me (and essentially got me hooked) was COMPETITION.
The Anaheim Convention Center is a big place, and it was FULL of people. This was my first time ever competing, and we were at a national event! Warm-ups were stressful, and by the time we were on deck, I was literally shaking with fear. As soon as the announcer introduced our gym and we took the floor, ALL the nervousness was replaced with the most intense adrenaline rush I’d ever experienced. What came next was an almost out-of-body experience, and at that moment, cheerleading officially became an addiction for me.
