FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What tumbling skills do you need to have to make the CJH cheer team?
A: I require at least a SOLID BACK HANDSPRING on the hard floor. Any other tumbling
skills like a standing tuck, whips, etc.. will give you a higher score from the judges.

tumbling Full for tryouts.
Q: Can I turn my portfolio in before the due date?
A: YES!!! It is better to turn in your portfolio earlier than later. It gives the judges and coach
time to look everything over. Late portfolios will NOT accepted so it is better to get it in
early.
Q: How much time does it take to be a CJH Cheerleader?
A: Being a CJH Cheerleader takes A LOT of time and work but is very rewarding and fun.
We start right after tryouts and continue all the way through until the last day of school
the following year. We attend EVERY athletic game which take place 2 times a week and
typically do not get home until around 5:30 pm those nights. Plus many early mornings
