How my teammates and I started to cheer.  First, we started cheering for football players. Then time flew by and the coaches got a note that we got invited to cheer competition. Meanwhile, We stared practice for three weeks and we had practice for three or two hours every day. Then we had practice on Saturday which was the last day to practice then Sunday came by and that was the day of competition. We did practice at the competition about six times. I had really good faith in my team but we played five teams. There were only three places and we did not get places 1st 2nd or 3rd. There are four different squads and I am in Peewee the four squads are Mitymites, jr peewee, and midgets. There were different levels for competition and my team did pom level. The jr peewee got placed 1st out of four we were all proud of them. Then the midgets got placed 3rd. If you get placed 1st 2nd 3rd you get to go to Las Vegas. So the jr peewee and midgets get to go to Vegas. Then a week came by and the coaches got a note that we got to go to vegas because we had 70 points and over. But during our dance at competition when we were performing on the stage the song turned of but we still danced. Now we have to fundraise to get new shoes, new outfits, bows, and poms.
