Varsity Cheerleaders heading to the Olympics
A group of US cheerleaders is heading to London to cheer for the Men’s Basketball Semifinal and Finals. The group, sponsored by Varsity, is comprised of outstanding college cheerleaders and top instructors from throughout the United States.
2012 Olympics |On Monday we returned from the most amazing trip I have ever been on. I was one of the lucky 16 cheerleaders selected to attend the Olymp...- We just returned home from the most incredible experience of a lifetime! Look back through our trip here! ^JM
Can't even begin to put into words what this experience has meant to me!!! I'm so proud to have been apart of this trip!!! #LondonCheer
- We were all ready to perform at halftime for Sunday's big game, but due to circumstances outside of our control, the performance during halftime was cancelled. We were so disappointed!In the end it turned out okay, we got to enjoy the rest of the Gold Medal game and watch Team USA bring home the Gold! Last day in London, we're gonna make it a good one! Thanks for following our journey to the Olympics!
Time for hair and makeup! Make sure you're watching the gold medal men's basketball game! #Olympics #londoncheer http://pic.twitter.com/Ggub8Zjs

@VarsityUpdates Just got tickets to the basketball final tomorrow - mostly excited about seeing the UCA cheerleaders perform there!- Another great day in London.We started off the day with a rehearsal for tomorrow's half time performance with Dizzee Rascal - who is a big time hip hop artist in the UK. There are two other groups performing with us, the jumping roping group and a group of dancers. The choreographers were so awesome, they even let us put them up in a stunt when we were done!
We then headed to the medal rounds of the women's handball games. It was our last 3 performances in the handball arena and the crowd was amazing. We had a blast doing each performance on that floor!
Tomorrow we are headed to the Men's Gold Medal Basketball game to perform at halftime. We are beyond excited and it's even better because Team USA is in the gold medal game! USA USA USA!! Look for us on TV tomorrow! ^JM 
Varsity cheerleaders out in the Olympic Park. Just drawing a little attention like most cheerleaders! (we can't help it, we love to stunt!) #olympics #cheer #londoncheer #olympicpark

- Jamie HainesThe only thing better to promote cheerleading as a sport would be to put stunt in the olympics...if badmitton can make it why not cheer. 2012-08-07T15:35:43.042Z

Cheerleading certainly has a lot of the same elements, except instead of throwing and catching bouncing balls, it's people! :) That's all I could think about today while watching rhythmic gymnastics.
