Held at the CAA Centre in Brampton by the Ontario Cheerleading Federation, this event saw all of Pegasus’ full year and half year teams perform. This event was Indy Ava, Luna, Comet, and Orbit’s first performance.
“With our largest year for registrations, we took 116 athletes to this competition. It was so much fun to see our older athletes cheer on our younger athletes and vice versa. Ontario Cup also saw our half year teams showing off their routines they’ve been working so hard on for the first time,” says Liz Yntema, owner of Pegasus Cheer Athletics and coach of Impact. “We are so proud of our athletes and coaches for their placements and showing what the incredible sport of cheerleading looks like in the Bay of Quinte.”
