Rebecca Bardelli
This season, the Washington Redskins got 13 new cheerleaders. Four of them are Brianne, Lyndsay R., Judy and Maigan. Who are these rookies and why did they want to be NFL cheerleaders? You are about to find out.

Brianne from Huntingtown, Md.

From a young age, Brianne was raised to be a Redskins fan. She has had a love for football and dance since the age of 6. Eventually, Brianne's love for entertaining led her to take theater at West Virginia Wesleyan College.

Brianne holds a Bachelors degree in Arts Administration. In addition, she has a Masters degree in Business Administration. When Brianne is not cheering with the rest of the Washington Redskins Cheerleaders, she is busy working at Abercrombie and Fitch as a District Manager..

Lyndsay R. from Strasburg, Va.

Lyndsay attended college at George Mason University, and she is an accountant representative.

Lyndsay also comes from a family of Redskin fans, and she began cheerleading at a young age. She cheered throughout middle and high school. She was a flyer, and she was Cheer Captain during her senior year in high school. Before becoming a football cheerleader, Lyndsay was a basketball cheerleader for the Washington Wizards. She was a Washington Wizard Girl for two seasons.

In addition to cheerleading, Lyndsay likes relaxing activities as well as activities that are impulsive and daring. She also has a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Khloe is the name of her dog.

Judy from Wheaton, Md.

Judy began dancing when she was 4 years old, and she has always wanted to be a professional cheerleader.

Judy went to University of Maryland, College Park. Right now she is an attendant secretary for an elementary school, but her goal is to become a teacher. She would like to teach kindergarten through second grade. To accomplish this goal, she plans to return to the University of Maryland and earn her Masters in Education.

Maigan from Thurmont, Md.

Maigan is a dance instructor and choreographer, so it is not surprising that she made it on the team. She has been dancing since she was 3 years old, and she learned as many types of dance as she could. One of Maigan's career highlights is dancing in Cats (the musical) at the Roxy Theatre in Tennessee Maigan has also performed in a music video and modeled. Keep your eyes out for Maigan because she plans on performing throughout her life.

All four of these girls are beautiful and talented athletes.

    That is one thing I always wanted to be but my parents couldn't afford it, an upward of $600+. My husband and I are proud to be able to offer this opprotunity to our daughter, and she is so great at it!
