So all the hard work my squad put in is finally over.
This actually makes me really sad, I miss practices where we do full out
routines one after the other. It’s really tiring but so rewarding! We competed
in both Level 1 Co-ed and Level 2 Co-ed and it was an amazing atmosphere.
We had to leave ridiculously early as the competition was
in Birmingham so we had to meet at our university campus at 3am (I KNOW
RIGHT!?) and we stopped off at McDonalds as we were running a little early
(obviously McDonalds was the best choice of breakfast on the day of
competition) and then we arrived at about 7am at the Genting Arena. Most of the
other squads already had gotten ready with their cheer hair and makeup and
their cheer bows! So we went in, got our seats (which we had an amazing view
from) and started getting ready.
First up were our dance groups for Jazz and Pom, they did
so well and looked so good! Level 1 were up first which is what I was competing
in this time. I was super nervous because I was flying a stunt as well so if I
fell it wouldn’t be good! I was worried in the warm up because my stunt wasn’t
going up but luckily I had the support of my squad and everything went really
well! We were all in time; we looked clean and had so much sass!
This picture was us just before we were about to compete!
Try to spot me! It’s a great feeling putting on our uniform and our bows. We
had new bows for this competition as our old coach made them which was really
sweet of her!
Next up was Level 2 who were equally as great. For the
rest of the day we could relax, buy some Cheerleading merchandise from Future
Cheer (the best kind of merchandise, I bought a really cute bow!) and watch all
the other squads routines which is my favourite part. It’s really interesting
to see what type of stunts and tumbles they’ve incorporated into their routine.
Some are so imaginative and look fantastic. It really makes you want to try
harder and get better yourself.
I had so much fun competing with my squad, I can’t wait
for our next competition! Watch this space!
