Yours truly remembers a news story about some high school trying this same policy back in the 1990s. It's nothing new.
Frankly, this activity is little more than a spectacle on the sidelines anyway, so such policies make little difference. After a student's high school graduation, employers and universities don't much care that the student had been a cheerleader.

I think the argument for cheerleading being a sport is that is requires much more skill and athleticism than it did in the past. Now they have to be professional dancers, not just pretty girls who yell and shake pom poms. Some cheerleading squads are not associated with a sports team and compete with each other. In this case it might be a sport, I don't know.
IMHO some people get way too upset about cheerleading and beauty contests. If someone has the time, money, and energy and wants to spend it on that who cares? It's their life. Of course I'm talking about adults or at least teenagers, not little sprogs being pushed into it by their loser moos. And I agree parents who demand their kids be accepted into groups they are not qualified for totally suck.
