“We had a very successful day, with all of our teams taking first place in their divisions. Junior 2, Senior 1 and Senior 2 were also crowned Grand Champions.
"This means they had the highest scores across a number of different divisions and our Junior 2 and Senior 1 teams were also awarded with the ultimate Allstar Worlds Bids for Florida in 2025!
"It is safe to say we didn’t expect to do so well at our first event of the season and we are so proud of our athletes and coaches for their hard work in preparation for this competition.”
