Cheerleading develops strength, flexibility, spunk and self-confidence. It teaches athletes about teamwork, commitment, responsibility, and especially camaraderie. Cheer camp is a perfect opportunity to bond with your teammates, learn from each other, and excel in your sport. You’ll learn cheerleading motions, cheerleading jumps, cheer and dance routines, tumbling, and have an amazing time with your teammates. Don’t forget to pack everything on this list before you leave for camp!
Getting homesick is totally normal when you’re spending a week away from home! It helps to bring a blanket or pillow from home, and have a set time each night after practice to call your mom, dad, or sibling. If you have a cell phone, keeping in touch with your family daily via text is not a bad idea either.
