    A "jock" as we primarily know it is a hard core athlete... and since many cheerleader drills and routines involve a lot of coordination, gymnastics, and energy - I guess by a loose definition we could say there is overlap... at the end of the day, does it really matter? Both are just "labels"... i like to think of players and cheerleaders as "dedicated sports enthusiasts", and let it go at that!

    well if you are just on a pep squad i dont think cheer is really a sport, but if you are on a competitive team then you are a true athlete and i suppose a "jock"

    Just cheerleaders is all I've ever heard. They should be considered jocks because they tumble ,stunt,practice year round,they work very hard and don't get the respect they deserve.

    Any team that can coordinate an effort to work as one unit, in an exhausting routine, and still have the breath to yell at the top of their lungs, are definitely jocks. Hey if golf is a sport....
