The event was organised to celebrate the academy's recent success in winning two national championships at the O2 arena in London. 

Academy founder Jessie Leigh said: '˜The girls have done incredibly well to beat off competition from hundreds of teams and thousands of other athletes. '

The academy's '˜Wildcats' team won the title in the '˜Senior Cheer Leading' category with the '˜Squadron' team making it a double swoop with the accolade of '˜Junior Hip Hop' champions.  

'˜The girls are so dedicated and we are really proud of what they have achieved,' added Ms Leigh.
