Rachael Swinnerton, the team’s program director and former Bridgnorth Endowed pupil, said she was hugely proud of the team’s efforts and they would be looking to build on their success at future competitions: “It was something we have worked for over the past eight years, so it was a dream come true. Now we want to enter again and get into the top 10.”
Cheerforce Ten academy is based at Ketley Business Park in Telford and has around 120 members training, aged from 13 to 30 years old.
