On Saturday, June 25th, we held our summer cheer and dance championships! The next Sunday, June 26th, we held our Schools Championships! Cheer and dance teams competed at Belle Vue Sports Village where we witnessed some of the elite cheer talents from across the UK.

Holding both competitions over one weekend was a lot of fun and we were blown away by the sheer talent on display!

A huge round of applause to the competitors, coaches, clubs, mascots, parents and spectators for making the weekend the very best it could possibly be.
