Cheerleading
NZ Majors Competition
Our new cheerleading team debuted at the New Zealand Majors competition over the weekend, coming 2nd in the High School 3 grade! The squad of 16 girls has only been together since the start of Term 2, practising once a week at the All Star Fame cheerleading school, under the guidance of their coaches.
Each cheer routine must contain dance, tumbling, pyramid, and stunt elements. Many of the team are dancers, making this the strongest element of their performance. They compete again in mid-September and the girls plan to work on their stunt elements ahead of this, the biggest challenge for our newly-minted cheer team. Go girls!
