Cheerleading Teams Head to World Championships

Hon. Terry Jenson: — Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Over 1,000 young athletes from across our province took part in the 2026 Provincial Cheerleading Championships at TCU Place in Saskatoon on March 21st. Cheer and dance clubs came from far and wide, Mr. Speaker, including Saskatoon, Regina, Warman, Prince Albert, Moose Jaw, The Battlefords, Yorkton, Swift Current, Martensville, Weyburn, and Biggar.

For athletes and their coaches, Mr. Speaker, it’s been a remarkable season of learning new routines, new stunts, and working through some very demanding choreography. And for six all-star teams, their season will continue when they represent our province at the world championships taking place in Orlando, Florida this weekend.

Congratulations to Saskatoon’s Prairie Fire Fever; Prairie Fire TNT; Regina’s Boss Athletics Luxe; the Rebels cheer academy, Smoke, from Regina; the Alumni All-Star Royals Pom team, and of course Warman Ultimate Cheer Onyx on earning their bids to compete at worlds.

Mr. Speaker, cheerleading is a sport that demands focus and attention to the smallest details. Athletes dedicate hundreds of hours practising and perfecting their routines at gym clubs right across the province. The goal of all teams is to hit zero, Mr. Speaker — in other words, a flawless and perfect performance. But it’s the sportsmanship and the friendships that are made that truly make the sport of cheerleading special.

On behalf of everyone in Saskatchewan, Mr. Speaker, we wish all of our cheerleading teams the best of luck this weekend at the world championships in Orlando, Florida.
