East Coast Tigers end season with clean sweep at the Revolution Cheerleading Championships
Scarborough's East Coast Tigers have finished their competitive season in spectacular fashion after achieving an incredible clean sweep of results at the Revolution Rampage Cheerleading Championships in Birmingham.
The club took eight teams to the Regional event, with every team delivering impressive performances.
Seven teams were crowned champions in their respective divisions, while the club's youngest novice athletes earned an Excellent Rating in recognition of their outstanding routine.
The success didn't stop there. East Coast Tigers also collected two prestigious Grand Champion titles, two Judges Choice Awards and secured a coveted bid to compete at the Allstar World Championships in Florida, awarded to their Senior Level 2 team following an exceptional performance.
Adding to the celebrations, East Coast Tigers' adult team, Monarchs, competed for the very first time.
The team, made up of 30 athletes ranging in age from 17 up to 59 years old, trains just once a month and was created as the club's first ever ‘Masters’ team.
Despite being newcomers to competitive cheer, Monarchs impressed the judges with a polished routine, earning first place in their division as well as a special Judges Choice Award for their exceptionally clean performance.
To make the weekend even more remarkable, all eight East Coast Tigers teams performed zero deduction routines – meaning every routine was completed without incurring any performance deductions, a significant achievement in competitive cheerleading and a testament to the athletes' precision, preparation and teamwork.
Head Coach Jess Mortimer said: “All of our teams performed zero deduction routines, which, alongside clean cheerleading, is the goal for any competition we attend.
"Our athletes and coaches work so hard throughout the season, and to finish with results like these is just an incredible achievement. I couldn't be prouder of every single one of our athletes and my amazing team of coaches."
The club's outstanding results cap off another successful season and highlight the continued growth of competitive cheerleading in Scarborough.
With three different Allstar Worlds bid now secured and preparations already underway for Season 11, Tigers are looking forward to building on this success and continuing to provide opportunities for athletes aged 4+.
