Cheerleaders Reveal The Strict Rules They Must Follow In The NFL

Education Requirements

Although they do not have specific weight or height requirements, they do make judgements about how the cheerleaders must look.

As the Dallas Cowboys’ cheerleader audition FAQ states, “you should look well proportioned in dancewear.” Additionally, all the cheerleading squads require that the women have graduated high school or have a GED.

Gum

Another odd rule involves chewing gum.

So apparently, they can enforce even the most trivial thing such as, chewing gum. On the Seahawks’ site, you can see their Sea Gals rule-book saying a director may use discretion to require that the cheerleaders chew gum.
