Cheerleading is a sport in which performers cheer on sports
teams at games or compete in cheerleading competitions.
Participants in cheerleading are known as cheerleaders. A
popular implement for gaining cheer is the pom-pom. Examples of
indecency in cheerleading In 2007, varsity cheerleaders at a
California high school were suspended from school for lifting
their skirts to show "Indians #1" spelled out on their
undergarments. Some network administrators have even blocked
access to websites related to cheerleading due to concerns of
indecency. It is important to note, however, that some
cheerleading squads have made good-faith efforts to reduce
indecency. Despite these examples, many Christian schools have
cheerleading squads. There are many cheerleaders themselves who
are Christians.
