I went to the local high school foot ball game last night. My little 5 year old grand daughter was part of the cheer leading squad. Every year the school has any grade school kid, that wants to, come out and cheer with the cheerleaders. It's fun and there lots, and I mean lots, of grade school cheerleaders. Twenty years ago my daughter was a cheerleader. All the cheerleaders were slim and well in shape. Last night there were several over weight cheer leaders. I guess everybody has to be included. I would think with all the gyrations they go through that the overweight ones would lose weight. I mentioned to my son-in-law, who was setting right beside me, "they sure have some "chunky" cheer leaders". He said "Ya, they sure don't make them like they used to."

My daughter came home from school one day and told me she was trying out for the cheerleading squad. I was glad. Good wholesome fun to keep her out of trouble. Then I found out how much stuff I had to buy and what the prices were. Probably should have just bought her a used corvette and saved myself a couple bucks.

If the cheer leaders are considered as part of the team the school buy what they need, not shoes. I no longer know the title of the bill but the money for sport has to be spread equally over girl and boy sports. That is in Mi. anyway.

Cheerleaders used to have to "try out" to make the team, just like the athletes playing the sport they cheered for. Some cheerleading IS an athletic pursuit, not just waving pom poms and yelling. I don't think that is the case anymore. Here in Wisconsin we solved that problem. We have pom squads and cheerleading squads. And from what I understand its quite the rivalry.

I don't think that is the case anymore. Lot of that is due to participation level. Can't have tryouts if you barely have enough to have a roster. Especially in female sports at smaller schools. Even the bigger schools here have issues getting enough participation. As for the cost of uniforms, those have to be fit to each player. Sports uniforms are usually passed down from one team to the next. It would of been interesting to see the reactions on some of the more sultry or suggestive routines our school's cheerleaders did if the uniforms weren't quite fitted...

What a great thread title.
Sounds like the title of a B-grade high schoolers movie.

I prefer a little meat on their bones. My first wife was skinny. Ever since that ended, I prefer a fuller figure.

It's not just "chunky cheer leaders"; our entire society seems to be getting chunky. Isnt that the truth. Its because they consume more calories than they burn. Thats 3/4 of the population. We call em button guts.

I don't see an issue with it.......everyone should have an oppurtunty to give it their best shot no matter what that particular thing may be........if they cant make the cut,,,,then don't give em a participation trophy..........but if they can...give em your full support............judging someone soley on a weight issue as a precived failure is crap!!!

It's not just "chunky cheer leaders"; our entire society seems to be getting chunky. Obesity is an issue that has it's own associated problems... But I would rather see kids having too much to eat versus not enough. Our main issue is not necessarily how much we eat, but WHAT we eat. It wasn't that long ago that being (what we would label) overweight was viewed as a good thing... Meant you were doing well and getting enough to eat. I would hate to see my kids front and center of a commercial narrated by Sally Struthers. Mike

Every pyramid needs a bottom And I've seen some pretty big bottoms on the field! I suppose it's a good thing tho, no body shaming and include everyone.

In high school most of ours were chunky because no one else would do it. I thought it was they were from Iowa.

Since when did the team provide anything for free to players? They sure don’t here. Must be a Wisconsin thing then. the foot ball team they need shorts. t-shirts , socks shoes and underwear the team/school provides pads helmets , jerseys , pants. your freshman foot ball Jersey probably had 10 repairs but you paid something like a 50 dollar fee that went to buy new stuff a little each year and freshman always got the old uniforms from varsity. when I wrestled we had to have our own shoes and practice cloths but singlets and head hear were provided for some fairly nominal participation fee. they even got us heavy sweatshirts for warm ups so that the team matched at matches and tournaments. all of it had to be turned back in washed at the end of the season.
