Clitheroe 422324 (Editorial), 422323 (Advertising), Burnley 422331 (Classified) Roefield cheerleaders have plenty to celebrate
ROEFIELD cheerleading teams were suc cessful at the UKCA National Champi onships at the Velodrome in Manchester. The two-day competition saw teams entering
from all over the UK and the overall level of per formance was extremely high. Three teams were entered in the Pom Dance section and were placed in the following order;
Roefield Rockets Elite-3 rd place Junior B, Roe field Rockets Supreme - 3rd place Junior A and Roefield Rockets Astros - 6th place Junior A. The teams performed superbly and brought
back yet more trophies. In the individual section, Francesca Green
received third place after another excellent per formance.
Congratulations go to the girls and to Sarah
their coach for her hard work, time and effort. Fund-raising is continuing in order to provide
the teams with uniforms, pom poms and, hope fully, tracksuits. The next scheduled event is a cheerleading session to support Clitheroe Wolves at the last match of the season. Support would be gratefully received.
There are presently four cheerleading teams-
Comets, for six to eight-year-olds, Astros (nine^ 11), Rockets Supreme-(12-13) and Rockets ElitP (14-16).
Sarah is hoping to s ta r t another group for those of 16 and above in the near future. Classes
are all a t Roefield Leisure Centre, Edisford Road, Clitheroe. Children begin with learning balance,
rhythm and co-ordination and progress to learn all aspects of cheerleading including dance, stunts and chants, combing aerobic exercises and a great deal of fun. Competi
tions are held twice per year and are very exiting. Anyone interested in joining should con
