From MetroUK.com
Cheerleading is not as easy as people think. It really isn’t dancing and jumping in rhythm at all. Not if you are a Jacksonville Jaguars Cheerleader.
For a quartet of Jaguars girls – Kayla, Caitlin, Jessica and Talitha – swapped their pom-poms for pencils as they saw a Wembley exam ahead of Sunday’s NFL match against the San Francisco 49ers in London.
With Wembley set to become the second home of the Jacksonville Jaguars, stadium bosses wanted to put the girls to the test by sending them behind-the-scenes on the official tour.
Kayla, Caitlin, Jessica and Talitha sat pitchside to take the test following their tour of the iconic stadium and answered questions on the incredible history of sporting and musical events to take place at the venue.

‘The stadium is awesome and we’re really excited to be coming to London to play over the next three years.’
