Nice shot and pretty girl. Next time, maybe slow the shutter down one stop to increase the ambient just a bit for better context.

Looks a bit flashy because the BG is so dark. As Scott said, slow your shutter. Next time shoot in manual. Meter on the BG, then compose and shoot. Well, that's if you're using flash in TTL mode.

Nice pose of a cute cheerleader. Technically, agree with the others - more ambient + a touch less flash = a more natural look and feel. Also, if you shoot from a slightly higher vantage point the gym floor becomes the background so you don't have the line of curtain cutting across her feet, plus you can use all those nice reflections on the wood to your advantage

Silly rabbit, curtains are for stage performers. That is a padded wall.
