An Ely-based group that runs cheerleading, dance and tumble sessions recently achieved first place in a competition.

Boss Elite attended a competition in Stoneleigh with four of their stunt teams, who all placed first.

Back in November, the group also attended a dance competition in Walsall where members represented Boss Elite in jazz, lyrical and pom group dances.

Individuals took part in the same genres but as soloist or duets. There, they placed from first to eighth across the 24 entries.

Boss Elite's recreational sessions are open to anyone aged three and above, including adults. 

Their competitive sessions, meanwhile, are attended by members aged five to 50 who wish to take things a little more seriously. Since starting their season in August, they have attended to national competitions and undertaken a virtual one.

Vikki Hutt, director of Boss Elite CIC, said: "We have a full 2024, with our showcase and four competitions, we will be travelling to Loughborough, Peterborough, Bournemouth and Blackpool on the mission to win more trophies.

"We are always looking for new members, whether this is those who want to try something different and fun with little commitment with our recreational sessions or those who want to commit to the weekly training, visits to competitions, being in the spotlight and the expense of being part of a competition team."
