Would you happen to know anything about FAU or FIU's teams?
I hope that this helps, but really work on stretching and conditioning your body for proper technique. It's possible to make their team, but perfecting the other aspects of cheer is highly important. Your Jumps will need to be strong with proper arm positioning, toe points, and body positioning. Stretching will help with this, so if you can pull up some flyer stretches, I've noticed where this helps. Start working on your aerials. Work on not dropping your shoulders to keep from being too low to the ground. Also, start working on your back tucks. A lot of these teams have tucks as a requirement, it doesn't always have to be perfect, but it's needed to be in a good running. You can do it, just stay focused.
FIU and FAU both compete at the NCA College Nationals. FIU competes in Advanced Division IA Small Coed while FAU competes in Game Day only.
Hi Kayden! If you are looking to prep for college cheer, I would love to help. I provide online coaching for cheerleaders looking to tryout for college. This would include a combination of strength training and giving feedback for your skills. I competed for Navarro and Baylor, so being strong enough to do the skills on dead mat is super important and can make a huge difference in your confidence. Let me know if you're interested!
