On Saturday, March 25th, and Sunday, March 26th, we held our National Cheer and Dance Championships! Cheer and Dance teams from across the UK competed at Belle Vue Sports Village, where the top cheer talent from across the country competed for glory.
We had so much fun over the weekend! This year was no exception regarding the companionship, competition, sheer talent, and joy displayed in both competitions! We owe all the competitors, coaches, clubs, mascots, parents, and spectators a huge round of applause for making this weekend of competitions the very best it could possibly be.
