The team made it to finals for the first time in the club’s history on Saturday, sitting in third place after a clean run in the semi-final round. They also took home the second place trophy in the Canadian Worlds Trials.

Two other Saskatchewan teams, Smoke from Rebels Cheerleading Athletics and Boss Athletics’ Luxe, competed in the IO5 category on Saturday as well, but did not advance to the final round. The Regina teams finished 16th and 19th, respectively, out of 25 teams.
