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"

i was ALWAYS TOLD th@ cheerleaders were just called cheerleaders

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.

ya true but when i think of jocks i think of guys. but ya i get your point there. but i think we are just considered cheerleaders

well like lauren when i think of jocks i think of like footbal players.

definitely just as cheerleaders...jocks are the hunk of man we are attracted to...(aka football players)

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....

At my school thy call us cheerleaders
