The Allentown Redbird Pop Warner Cheer team has just completed a “season for the ages” as they were crowned 2014 National Champions at the Pop Warner Super Bowl and National Cheer & Dance Championships, defending their title from last year .
This completes their “magical” run for 2014 in which this team was crowned:
- Central Jersey Champions
- NJ State Champions
- Eastern Regional Champions (6 states)
- National Champions
“Our girls left no doubt this year, and we’re even awarded the “Highest Stunt Score” out of the 77 teams competing in all levels of their entire age group, each of whom we’re national championship caliber,” proudly states Bernadette Nolan, Cheer Coordinator. “They continue to be tremendous ambassadors of spirit and sportsmanship for our community.”
The team is composed of 31 girls, 27 of the girls attend Stone Bridge Middle School, one team member is a student at Newell Elementary, and the other three girls attend St. Gregory the Great in Hamilton.
Congratulations to the cheerleaders and their coaches!
