Introduction

Nowadays we can see beautiful girls and strong boys in the time-ups between matches. We call them cheerleaders but we haven’t got any information about them. So, this research work is devoted to cheerleading in the World and in Perm.

Everybody at least once has seen this incredible kind of sport. People are usually amazed when they see a huge and difficult pyramid, consisting of 5 or 4 people with a flyer who do different stunts (for example flip, Blanche, scorpion etc.). How many times did girls in colorful costumes with pom-poms in hands attract our attention? Their performance fascinates with its clarity, brightness and organization. Girls-cheerleaders demonstrate big smiles and good mood when they are shouting chants and doing different exercises. Boys-cheerleaders motivate healthy lifestyle when they easily throw girls up to 4-5 meters in height.

It’s a pity but few people know that cheerleading is undoubtedly a hard sport and it takes a long time, even several months, for cheerleaders to learn all the elements.

Also, many people confuse cheerleading with curling and this fact is very disappointing. People in Perm haven’t even heard about cheerleading. They think that it is only American parody of a serious sport. However, it’s not true. By the way, cheerleading takes the 5^th place in the World among the most dangerous ones. Even the bullfighting is inferior to it.

The purpose of my research is cheerleading, its history and elements.

The objective is to discover how cheerleading influences the development of sport in Perm. To fulfill this task the literature on sport and cheerleading was carefully studied. The competitions of cheerleading teams were attended and recorded. The members of different cheerleading teams were interviewed.

Such methods as interview and observation were used in this research paper.

The topic of our research is of current interest because cheerleading is absolutely new kind of sport, particularly in Perm, and many people don’t know anything about it.
