I'm sure that the cheer trickled down from college cheerleaders. I was a cheerleader in junior high, and HS girls taught our cheer camps. Who taught them? College cheerleaders. It sounds to me like this was one of those "silly" unofficial cheers that one of the girls learned from an older sister somewhere.
Does it make it right? No. The problem should have been nipped in the bud by the coach. All "cheers" should be approved at that level. The solution is for the coach to instruct the girls as to what is appropriate. They probably have no idea what "our backs ache" or "our skirts are too tight" might imply outside of the literal definitions. I saw the picture of the uniform - it's very floaty and long.
How many kids come out with trash that they heard elsewhere?
