Meet One of Football's Fabulous Females
The Interview Continued
Cheerleading Guide: What advice would you
give to young people wanting to try-out for
a Cheerleading position?
Rolleen: A.
GET NOTICED!!! LEARN!!! KEEP TRYING!!! Pay attention to your dance
skills, and your speaking
skills "for public appearances". You will need to be fit and strong mentally
and physically because you will be under a lot of pressure so endurance is very
important.
Cheerleading Guide: Has
Cheerleading helped shape your life in any way, if so, how?
Rolleen: It has put me in the public's eye giving me the opportunity
to perform, teaching me humility, self-discipline and commitment to a team.
As a Dance Instructor I pass these valuable experiences on to my students and
hope to help shape their lives.
Cheerleading Guide: This is your fifth
year as a Raiderette, how many more years do you hope to continue being a Pro
Cheerleader?
Rolleen: This
is my 8th year total. Three years with the 49er's (including Super
Bowl XXIX) and five years with the Oakland Raiderettes. I have no idea how
much longer I will continue being a Pro Cheerleader. I think I would miss it
desperately and I could not vision doing this for any other team than the Raiders.
My goal is to be a Dance/Cheer Choreographer for the NFL.
