HARROGATE Town cheerleaders Harrogate Hornets have returned from their first British Cheerleading Association Classic Competition as runners-up.
The squad were competing alongside more than 1,800 cheerleaders in front of an audience of over 2,600 at Telford International Centre
The 12-strong team were selected from the squad who train at Granby Sport and Play Development Centre, and would like to thank Community Champions for funding the trip and Harrogate Borough Council for their ongoing support.
Cheerleading is a competitive athletic discipline, one of Britain's fastest growing sports. A dynamic fitness activity involving cheers; chants; jumps; tumbling; dance partner stunts and pyramid building.
If you would like to give cheerleading a go there is an open tryout to join the squad.
For more details on the tryout or to get involved in recreation or adult programmes contact Jo Armstrong on (01423) 556745 or email Joanne.Armstrong@harrogate.gov.uk
