Paisley was nervous really an outgoing person. When she was little she never played any sports because she was too shy. Her parents encouraged her to get involved in something, but she was too scared. Eventually, they got her into gymnastics which was nerve racking for her because she wasn’t with any of her friends. Then a couple years later she played soccer with her best friend. Paisley’s dad wanted her to do it because that’s what he played when he was growing up. They both had a blast but soon soccer wasn’t the sport for her; therefore she tried volleyball, which she loved. She played that for 3 years. Until she started cheerleading.

She didn’t know if she was ready to do something like that. To help her make a decision she went to the summer camp the high school cheerleaders always have.

Paisley loved it! She may not have been the loudest or the tightest one there, but she got the hang of it. Admiring the cheerleaders, she knew right then and there she wanted to be like them, so she worked towards it. She went home and practiced what she learned those 3 days at camp over and over again. Paisley didn’t want anything else but to be a high school cheerleader.
Right before her 6th grade year started her mom signed her up for the PYC Optimist Youth Football Cheer program. At the first couple of practices she was timid and shy and didn’t yell the words.

She couldn’t believe she had actually gotten this far and was actually trying out to be the cheerleader she had wanted to be for so long. She was so nervous at the clinics and the day of tryouts. She didn’t know what to expect and she didn’t want to make a bad first impression. Paisley shoved all of that to the side so that it wouldn’t get in the way of her fulfilling her ambition.

Her coach told everyone, “ Do not throw a skill at tryouts that you haven’t thrown here at clinics because we wouldn’t know if it’s a skill you can land 10 out of 10 times. Plus, it’s not fair to the other girls if you just throw that skill at tryouts because you want to make it, but you can’t throw it after that.
