PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Eagles are hosting open auditions for their cheerleading squad.
Hopefuls can select their own song to pair with the choreography to show off their skills.
"Utilize the opportunity to select a song and tempo of your choice to showcase your individuality, personality, showmanship, creativity, and distinctive talent," the team said.
Once the routine is nailed, applicants should record themselves performing it facing the camera. Do not perform the dance in front of a mirror. These videos must also include a short introduction, equivalent to two to three sentences about what they think would be relevant for the team to know.
Then, videos must be uploaded online here by midnight on April 14 to be considered.
Below is a full schedule of the cheerleader selection process:
