On Saturday, June 15th, we held our Summer Cheer & Dance championships; on Sunday, June 16th, we held our Schools Championships!
Cheer and dance teams from across the UK and UK schools competed at Belle Vue Sports Village, where we witnessed some of the elite cheer talents from across the country.
We love holding these weekend competitions, and this weekend’s was no exception. We were blown away by 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 best possible.
