Unlike all-star teams, however, most high school teams practice several times a week. All-stars may only practice once a week as a complete squad. High school cheerleaders have the primary goal to get the crowd involved in the game and encourage their team to win. When dancing, whereas all-stars have choreographed tunes, high school cheerleaders dance to band music and clap to the school's fight song. During games, many fans are there to watch the game action, which may take some of the discipline, desire and fun out of cheerleading because it can appear as if the cheerleaders' efforts go unnoticed.
Uniforms are very conservative.
All-stars go to one major camp, but high school cheerleaders have many more to attend. At these camps, high schoolers compete against rival teams. Considering all these factors, deciding which team to cheer for is wide-open. Both offer different benefits and highs and lows. It simply depends on which squad is right for you.
