It Takes More Than Great Hair and a Winning Smile to Make This Squad When 'Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making The Team' Returns Friday, September 14 on CMT
LOS ANGELES, July 13 -- Professional cheerleading takes
hard work, determination and nerves of steel as the new crop of recruits
quickly finds out in the second season of CMT's DALLAS COWBOYS
CHEERLEADERS: MAKING THE TEAM, premiering Friday, September 14 at 8:00-9:00
p.m., ET/PT. CMT's eight-episode series reveals all the behind-the-scenes
action of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleading try-outs as girls struggle to
make the team, survive boot camp and make their big debut as one of the
most famous cheerleaders in America.
"Becoming a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader is a lot of hard work and
extremely competitive," says Kelli Finglass, director of the Dallas Cowboys
Cheerleaders. "Most people don't understand the long hours of physical and
mental conditioning that these girls go through to become one of just 36
chosen to make the team. This series shows you everything - the highs, the
lows and everything in between."
Each summer, over one thousand hopefuls descend upon Texas Stadium with
the same goal of becoming one of the few chosen to don the famous blue and
white uniforms. DALLAS COWBOYS CHEERLEADERS: MAKING THE TEAM captures the
contenders from preliminary auditions, through training camp and tearful
cuts, where the cheerleading hopefuls must master the signature kick-line
and intricate dance routines in order to advance. Finglass, Jay Johnson,
the hardcore fitness instructor, and Judy Trammell, team choreographer,
don't mince words as they test each individual for the physical and mental
stamina required to make the team.
