1. The newcomers of the team, Sarah Kim, and Jenny Lee show great school spirit with great smiles and crisp motions. Sarah Kim supported the GSIS basketball team by shouting “Go Knights!” and performing a high kick. 2. Euna Chang performs a fall back during half-time. In order to perform a fall back, the flyer falls back into the arms of three back spots, who pushes the flyer back up on two bases’ hands. 3. Haley Park, Jennifer Kim, and Esther Yoon perform the KAIAC routine with sharp motions.

Robin Cho stands at the sideline and shows her spirit during the home game against Seoul International School. During every practice, cheerleaders worked on memorizing and tightening their moves for all the sideline chants. “Cheer was a growing experience. You never know how much you can do until you push yourself... I think about everything we learned, and the team work and the consistent effort is what still sticks with me. Constantly committing to your team and working at something until you succeed. It’s true for so many parts of life and cheer solidified that for me.” 12 Kylie Reimer, c/o 20 Personally, starting the first GSIS cheer team was essentially witnessing the change that even a small voice has the power of making... we ourselves were a small voice at the time, which would later grow to change the landscape of the GSIS basketball court.
