I love cheerleaders i don't know what man doesn't like them but chess is a Mind game , this is not a game for much noise, in chess you don't need cheerleaders they would only make people not on top of there game because they would be looking at them too much lol.
Every other game is a mind game, the cheerleaders are for the crowd (during the game, at least, after the game, they're for the team...depending on the circumstance)
OK, this is the issue: to have cheerleaders, in tiny suits if possible, rooting for chess players and making animation, you know the sort of stuff they make during a football/basketball game, a lot of noise, cries, jumps and all. I think they may even have pawns or knights in their tight uniforms, reflecting therefore the lively nature of chess. Hey cheerleading could even help to promote this game after all
