The 1998 British Cheerleading Champions who previously represented Leicester
City Football club, have moved in to the world of Rugby Union.
The squad, now performing for The Rugby Football club are being sponsored by Elisabeth
The Chef and are now under the name Premier All Stars. The 20 women and 6 men all aged
between 14 – 28 years perform using a mixture of high level dangerous stunts,
gymnastics, tumbles and dance. Their performances range from 3 minutes to 30 minutes and
delight spectators as the men throw their female colleagues some 30 feet into the air!
The Premier All Stars are scheduled to be officially launched when the Lions meet the
Leicester Tigers in the Cheltenham & Gloucester Cup on the 29th of this
month and you can see them in their new red, white and gold kit with gold silver and white
pom pons.
Team Coaching Director Caroline Scott, also Lions Sales & Marketing Manager said
"I trained the squad when I worked as Leicester City and was shocked when I heard
they had walked out following some dispute, however was delighted when they approached me
to coach them again. After speaking to our Club Chairman, David Owen, he agreed to sponsor
the squad and now we can boast the British Champions here at the home of Rugby football.
The Lions have a mini squad which we will be working with in preparation for a big launch
ater this month."
