47. No, it doesn't. But it isn't all exclusionary, either.
This isn't a football team, is it? It's cheerleading. They aren't the same. Yeah, there's this big deal about cheerleading being athetic. There are aspects of it that can be. But - and I realize that I risk huffy responses but I don't give a crap because facts are facts - there is a difference between sports that have rules, and activities like cheerleading that don't. Cheerleading's ultimate goal is to cheer. It often does involve elaborate athletic routines, but ultimately if you have a pair of lungs where you can yell out cheers and you can put on a costume with the school colors, and you have team spirit, you can cheer. Those are the basics.
