Strength in unity
By EDRIE AZRIFF CHEERLEADING is all about never giving up, and giving your best in everything you do. Some people think it’s just an activity for “popular” girls and effeminate boys, but no. It’s about passion, putting your heart and soul into training and pushing your limits for almost an entire year, all to perform […]

Cheering together
By ONG WEI LEE THE Cyrens and Rayvens cheerleading teams from SM Sri Kuala Lumpur have been striving hard for the past year. Cyrens were crowned champions for the third time in a row at the Cheer 2012 finals, and the pressure was on for the team to live up to expectations. We had a […]
The cheerleader myth
BWHEN I tell people that R.AGE organises a secondary school cheerleading competition every year, they usually give the same, highly-predictable response – “so are the cheerleaders all bimbos?” followed by a juvenile laugh. Yeah, look who’s talking. Never mind that Cheer has been around for 14 years, and that by now we even have a […]

Parents cheer on
IF you had stepped into Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil last weekend during Cheer 2013, you would have marvelled at the energy and showmanship of the participants, and be bowled over by the overwhelming support shown all around. Students turned up in full force to cheer their respective school teams, and friends and whole families […]
Adding to the cheer
WHAT would Cheer be without the fantastic support of its sponsors? Well, for one, it’d be a lot less fun. At last weekend’s Cheer 2013 finals, event presenter MARIGOLD HL Low Fat Milk, main sponsor Silkygirl and co-sponsor Sugus were all there with their products to help make the event even more fun. Got milk? […]
