If you're talking military - the 'baton' twirling at the front of a military band are directions to the musicians as to which way they are going to turn.
We don't have cheerleaders as such, but there are a couple of cheerleading squads - the Ascension Eagles based in east London is one and they've won a lot of prizes.
