Being part of a team -- especially a cheerleading team -- helps us become the adults we'll be one day. We learn lessons about teamwork, dedication, leadership, and also what it means to have that special cheer bond.

These are the moments that only your cheer friends would understand!

1.  The struggle of conditioning at the end practice or pushing through early morning workouts with the team.

2. They've always got your back… literally.

3. Cheer friends are the weirdest friends, and it's completely normal.

4. When does that bond come in handy? When it's go time.

5. Trust on another level. Your friends are your life savers.

6. The feeling of hitting the routine you've worked so hard on.

7. The need to stunt anywhere, just because you can.

8. That feeling after you've just spent an hour-plus getting "cheer" ready: bow, lipstick, uniform--the works!

9.  Most of the time your memories are made from bus rides, waiting for awards, and time spent at competitions, games and practices.

You can enjoy each other's company anytime, anywhere--and it's awesome.
