I have no idea how to do a cartwheel, my friend has been teaching me and she says I'm getting better. I know how to do it and all but my legs are never straight.
She keeps convincing me that personality is mostly what they're looking for but I don't believe her. I'm still determined to get a cartwheel before try-outs.
Do you think I would still have a good chance of making the team even without knowing a cartwheel?

It deff depends on your level. Like, if it's for middle school you can probably still make the team. If it's for high school, you might be able to make JV. All of the girls on my high school's team have to know how to do a back handspring and land it. It mostly depends on how competitive the team is. The most important thing is to never give up or get discouraged. Keep trying, you'll get it! =]

well it depends on what team. if it is competitive, then it depends on the coaches and the level. if it is for school, then it depends on the coaches. you should definetly practice cartwheels and roundoffs. especially if it is a higher level team. also, you should go to tumbling classes so you can practice. once you have that down, do handstands and backbends. sooner or later try for a backhandspring. this will take a while, but you still need to try. good luck!!
EDIT: oh and your friend is right personality is definetly very important! smile!!! lol
