Teach him some jumps and some easy cheers. I think his "uncoordinated dorkiness" will make it even funnier :)

^ As this person said, definitely some simple sideline cheers! Here's some other ideas:

• Forward rolls (even an 'unco-ordinated dork' can learn these!)
• Some basic motions, e.g. high V, T
• High kicks (I'm sure he'd find this quite funny)
• Some really, really simple body positions, e.g. liberty

Good luck!

In high school we did Powderpuff where our senior girls play our rival's senior girls in flag football. Our senior guys also sign up to be cheerleaders, it's a riot. Definitely teach them some jumps and very basic chants. We taught the boys the chants that we did in Pop Warner since they were simpler and required less strict motions.
