I always wanted to be on a sports team.  Most of all, I've dreamed of  being apart of a sports family.  I was in 7th grade when I first tried out for the Washington Prexies; some of my friends also participated in the try-outs. I went home and told my mom that I was going to tryout and she was so proud of me for exploring what I want to do in school .  They had  practices that helped us learn the routines and cheers all weekend.  It was Monday morning and try-outs were after school,  so I went to my friend's house  with a group of girls to practice the routines.  When it was time to go, we walked to the  school, got our numbers, and waited for our turn.  I was scared when I walked in, but the judges were nice so it made it more comfortable for all the girls there.  When it was finally over I went home and waited for the phone call which finally came at 7:30.  Coach Megan called my mom and asked to talk to me, so she handed me the phone. I said, "Hello, this is Janae".  She replied , "Welcome to the Prexies Cheerleading Squad". I was estatic!  I actually made the team; I loved everything about being on the team.  Some of the things I loved the most were the fans  and traveling with the sports teams.  That was my first time trying-out for the a sports team; it was one of the best experiences of my life.
