Beijing 2008 cheerleaders compete
Dec. 4 - China's youngsters compete hard to become Olympic cheerleaders where judges are looking for a bit of tradition in the performances.
Cheerleading originated in the United States in the late 19th century as a way to rev up spectators and support athletes at university sporting events. Now it's evolved into a fully fledged sport itself.
China's Olympic games will be held from August 8, 2008, and officials are looking to find the best cheerleaders to showcase Beijing to the world.
