The BIM Cheer Federation Inc. successfully held its second annual cheerleading competition Sunday, December 14, 2025 at the St. Michael Secondary School.
Scores of proud parents, coaches, and members of the community gathered to witness the battle for points among students from various schools, as well as independent clubs across Barbados. Competitors happily showed off their talents and physical skills, keeping the audience locked in to their every move. The teams displayed their energetic, acrobatic and synchronized dance moves, love for aerobics, and much courage as most Flyers balanced from heights above 8 feet in the air.
