Breaking news: Team Malaysia strikes gold at Aus Cheer

Petaling Jaya (July 11) - Team Malaysia struck gold today at the 2009 AUS Cheer International Cheer, Dance & Aerobic Championships held in Queensland, Australia. The 17-member team won both the Cheer Team and Partner Stunt divisions they competed in and finished 2nd in the Group Stunt division. Another stunt team finished 3rd in Partner Stunt.

The team had to make last-minute adjustments to their Cheer Team routine when one of the flyers, Melissa Campbell, dislocated her arm in two places while executing a back handspring during the team's exhibition performance at the recent Cheer 2009 inter-school competition on July 5.
