That's great! I wish my cheerleading had counted towards my PE!! When I was in Junior High, I played basketball and did cheerleading, but neither counted for PE credits. Then in High School, I was a cheerleader for football and basketball my freshman year, but didn't go out for it again because of how catty it became. I might have stuck it out if I could have gotten out of PE. There should really be an alternative PE course for clutzes. You do not want to put a badminton racquet in my hand. It's just not a good idea. Also, any kind of projectile, like a volleyball. I am convinced the only reason I did no bodily injury to anyone else in junior high basketball is because I was bench warmer. (I did manage to severely sprain my ankle during practice, and I remember taking an elbow to the mouth once during a game in the 2 minutes that I played, and the girl apologized profusely.)
