My 20% Project

My first 20% project of the year has to do with one of my passions in life. All-star Cheerleading. I have been doing All-star Cheerleading since the age of 8, and it has made a huge impact on my mind and body. My main goal for this project is to tackle the debate on whether this competitive activity is a sport, or not. Many of my friends and peers have very strong opinions on the fact, and I am happy to finally be able to make something of it. When "cheerleading" comes to mind, most think of the Rah! Rah! you see on the sidelines of your local football game. But All-star Cheerleading is so much different. I chose this topic to try to show the public how difficult and physically demanding the sport I love is. I anticipate to conduct a survey of my peers and adults in my community. I think a few problems I might run into, is how biased I am about the sport, because it is basically my life. I am going to consult my coaches Chrissy Shnieweiss and Sean Timmons at my cheerleading gym World Cup Allstars in Freehold while I do this project.
