Over 2,500 athletes turned out to compete in the 16th annual Warman Cheer Classic.
The Warman Cheer Classic runs from March 10-12 with teams coming from British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and all corners of Saskatchewan to compete.
“This definitely is one of the largest competitions now in Western Canada,” owner and head coach of Warman Ultimate Cheerleading, Leslie Stevenson, told CTV News.
“We have close to 400 volunteers from the high school and middle school and within the community and our ultimate club,” she said. “It's a testament to what the community puts into it.”
Cheerleader Hailey Watrych has competed in the event for five years.
“You come here and you get to express yourself and be with your team, be a part of something and just show all of your skills,” she said.
“You just have to be an outgoing person and just be happy. Everyone here is just here for a good time.”
