At our school I dont think its defined as a sport, but its treated the same as all other sports. None of the sports get any money from the school what so ever. I work with football and wrestling primarily and we let the cheerleaders help work concessions at games, help out at our car washes and stuff. The whole school kinda passes things around so that its as equal as can be. It works well for us.

Now I will admit our cheerleaders dont do to much. They cheer and stuff, but not alot of tumbling or pyramids or stuff like that. Frankley the school has a hard time getting cheerleaders, this year they only had 11 try out for 3 teams of cheerleading. (FYI this is middle School)
