Congratulations to Hollie in Year 8 who has recently captained the Airborn Allstars Delta cheerleading team at the world championships in Florida!

The team is made up of 16 athletes who live across the north west and they regularly compete in events across the country. The sport is fiercely competitive, and qualifying for the World Championships is very difficult. It was very satisfying for the team to earn qualification here in Liverpool at one of the country's biggest events which was held at the M&S Arena.

The team competed in the Under 16 category, making Hollie one of the youngest members of the squad and we are all particularly proud of the leadership she has demonstrated to earn Captaincy.

Despite a strong performance, the team's tournament this year ended in the semi-finals, with only two teams from the UK progressing through to the final rounds.

Well done to Hollie and the whole squad for representing themselves and our city so well.
