Cheer Squad Try-Outs
When Tina saw Sonya, she waved back at her. When she saw Sonya sat down, she walked over to her. "Hey, Sonya! It's good to see you. If you're here for tryouts, you just have to perform the routine and maybe add your own thing to the end to show something extra you can do."
Tina performed the routine in front of Sonya even though she was getting a little tired of it. She hoped when people performed it that they added their own twist to it. It would give her a new perspective and she felt creativity should be encouraged. To her, cheerleading wasn't just about raising teammates spirits. It was grabbing attention to the game and showing people where hard work could get someone. With a big grin, she instructs, "Don't hesitate to add your own talents to the routine. I recommend showing off the highest caliber of what you can do. However, please don't create an entirely different routine."
Tina waited with a bit of excitement to see how Sonya's tryout would turn out. She expected her to do well since she had to be good at dancing to even found and lead the Theater's Art Club.

Cheer Squad Try-Outs
Eri was a little nervous for cheer tryouts. Truth be told she hadn't done gymnastics for a year, but she was excited to go the tryouts. Her colored hair hung loosely in a ponytail the white bottom half swayed slightly and a little bit of her matron bangs strayed from the ponytail and framed the left side of her face. Her silver eyes scanned the others on the training pitch. She was dressed in a simple white tee shirt and some black athletic pants. Her feet were clad in white running shoes and a gym bag hung from her shoulder.
When she arrived she saw Tina do the routine they needed to do. Placing her bag on the ground Eri did the routine. Eri stood in a tall straight position, stomped her left foot and quickly dragged her right foot behind her left to turn in a circle. At the end of the spin she did a clap with her hands. Then without moving her feet she moved her upper body forward, placed her hands on her knees then went into a summersault. Then she stood up in a graceful motion lifting her right leg and both arms into the air.
Once she was done with that she decided to do a little free style. She did a small run before launching herself into a falir which is a backflip and a one eighty after that. Then she did a front pike and did a cartwheel which turned into a backflip and then she landed did a back walk over and landed in a split.

Cheer Squad Try-Outs
Vales had no clue what she was doing on the training pitch. Well, she knew what she was doing, but not why. The usually shy ravenclaw had decided to try out for the cheerleading team, and now Vales was feeling the anxiety. If she got in, Vales hoped that the team would help her become more extroverted and talkative.
She was wearing a bright blue t-shirt and black leggings, with her long black hair in a simple ponytail, swinging behind her wildly. Vales had streched earlier, doing her ballet warmups to get ready. It wasn't only for the tryouts though, her warm ups calmed Vales down and she tried to do them everyday. The ravenclaw had very little experience with cheerleading, but ballet...ballet was her forte. Hopefully, her experience in contemporary ballet would help her here.
Taking a deep breath, Vales finally looked around the training pitch, searching for someone in charge. Truthfully, Vales was just a tad excited, underneath all the fear, of course. It was her first time ever trying out for anything, and even though her heart felt like it was about to beat out of her chest, the adrenaline that was coursing through Vales's body made her feel able to do anything. She saw another ravenclaw girl perform a routine, and looked on in awe. That girl was talented!
"Hello, I'm Vales! That's the routine, right?" she asked ,finally ready to try out.

Sonya watched as Tina showed her the routine. "Great!" she said, ready to begin. It was fairly simple yet looked like it would be fun. It wasn't as complex as most dances she did were so she could pull it off. She was exited to tryout so she was glad she could now channel all her energy into it. She smiled at Tina while giving a small nod, signaling that she would begin her tryout.
She stood straight and preformed the routine with a smile the whole time. Stopping her left foot then dragging her right foot behind her left one turning in a circle. She clapped, giving a small jump into the air along with it. She then bent into a somersault and when she stood up did a high kick. The routine Tina made up was over and Sonya decided to freestyle a bit and add some more dance components. She did a quick double pirouette and leaped into the splits in the air. As she jumped she clapped, feeling good about the timing of both the split and the clap being synched just right. She decided to do more clapping as she stepped to the left and clapped and stepped to the right and clapped. She finished by going down into her right splits and raising her hands in the air.
"Thanks for watching," Sonya smiled when she was finished, "Was that ok?"

Cheer Squad Try-Outs
Vales gave a tiny smile, then stood up straight, wasting no time as she began. The routine was simpler than she expected, and the younger girl believed that she could do it, cleanly and well. She imagined a beat, a fast one, and did the routine to it, dragging her right foot in a circle, clapping her hands sharply, and then bent into a simple somersault, popping back up within a second. Now, time for the freestyle. Vales hadn't planned this in advance, instead feeling the imaginary beat in her head as she did a simple back walk over. She wasted no time, going into a small sprint, jumping into a graceful leap. Her legs spread apart in the air until she was doing a full on split, landing gracefully in the fourth position. Vales was almost done, but not yet. As a finishing touch, the smaller girl rose her leg in the air, higher and higher until it was above her head.
Vales stood there for a few seconds on her toes before dropping her legs down gracefully and giving a small smile, different from the one she held on her face during the audition.
"How was that?" she asked surprisingly calm. A strand of hair had become untucked during the performance, so she quickly grabbed it and tucked it back, blushing a little.

Cheer Squad Try-Outs
Zolderane walked down to the Training Pitch where the cheer team tryouts were being held. She had been a cheerleader since she was three years old. Zolderane had just reached level six cheerleading just before she received her Hogwarts letter. Even though she was only in her first year she knew that most older students would not have as much experience at cheer as she did. However, in her eight years of cheer, she had only ever been a flyer because she was not at all strong but she was very flexible and light so naturally she was by far the best for a flyer.
"Hello Devina and Tina I am Zolderane and I am here to try for a flyer, I have been doing cheer since I was three and have just reached level six cheerleading but no one is supposed to know because I am too young to compete at that level. I am a great flyer and tumbler but I am not strong enough to be in the base but anyway I saw the simple cheer routine when Tina did it so here it is,"
Zolderane stood in a tall straight position before stomping her left feet and quickly dragged her right feet behind her left to turn in a circle. She ended the swift movement with a clap. Without moving her feet, she moved her upper body forward. She placed her left hand on her left knee and her right hand on her right as she bent down and did a somersault. Abruptly, she returned to her tall straight position before raising her right leg and both arms above her head.
"Now I am going to perform some level six stunts for you both."
Zolderane started by leaping into an aerial and then two boys, that did not want to try out but agreed to help Zolderane came out and starting tossing her in the air while she did flips and other stunts. The two boys tossed Zolderane up in the air and she did a triple front flip before gracefully landing on the grass doing the splits with her hands up.
