Question
hi i go to stockwell park high and we are starting a cheerleading squad we are getting a coach and our uniform sorted out but we have a music problem and as cheerleading is not a big thing in England i don't know what to do. do you have any suggestions?

Answer
Hi Jim Jam,

   If you have the money search for cheerleading mixes, or custom cheer mixes on the internet. You can find these in your area or the United States and they'll do your music. If that's too expensive, buy some cds of popular songs mixed together and use those. You can get those from any cd store or on amazon.com. If you have anyone connected to your team that is musically gifted, you can get a program like pyro to mix your own music. Its hard, but can work for low budget teams. Any of these options should work great for you. Good Luck!
Happy Cheering!
