The Scorpions Elite Cheer team from Steibach ended the season strong at the Manitoba Cheer Federation Provincals this past weekend.

The Scorpions are the only all-star cheerleading program in Mantiba outside of Winnipeg. Co-founder Andrew Recksiedler says it was great to end the season with multiple victories. “All of our competitive teams took first except one, who got second,” he comments, “and our Junior Two’s took Division Champs.”

Stingers, Strikers, Black Venom, Green Venom, and Strike Force all had zero deductions meaning the team had no falls in their tumbling or stunts and no safety rules were violated. There were also nine athletes who preformed tumbling routines and two non-competitive routines preformed by the Scorpion’s recreational team.

Recksiedler says a Provincal win like this shows the effort and hard work the team has put in throughout the season.“Preparing for a championship like this begins on day one.” offeres Recksiedler.

“We want to focus on good culture, progressing the kids and having fun. No pressure on the winning necessarily just do what were good at and hit it.”

The Scorpion’s will begin their tenth season in September.
