25/26 Season News: Exciting Team Updates

The U.S. season has barely ended, but things are already changing fast!

Here’s a continuation of recent newsletters where we list teams changing divisions, new teams & more:

Woodlands Elite Generals is back (yes, back) in the Large Senior 6 division! It was just announced that Top Gun Revelation is entering the division, and now it’s official that Generals are too 😯 A new era is starting.
CheerVille Anarchy moves from the Extra Small Coed 6 division to Medium Senior 6!
Cheer Extreme is also anticipating entering the Medium Senior division, with a new team called Vixens 🦊
Another team moving divisions: CheerForce Venom, from Small Senior Coed 6 to Extra Small Senior Coed 6
Speaking of CheerForce, they also have a new Worlds team: Rogue 6, in the U18 Non-Tumbling Coed 6 division.
Brandon Allstars Senior Pink is back! However, this time it’s in the U18 Non-Tumbling 6 division, so technically not Senior Pink. Anywho.
East Celebrity Elite has also announced a new Worlds team in the U18 Non-Tumbling Level 6 division!
ECE is also entering the fan-favorite Medium Senior 4 division, which Top Gun 24k has now left.
GymTyme Black is back! What an era the Black + Pink = Blink time was 😉
Long Island Cheer Diamonds is moving from Limited Extra Small to Limited Extra Small Coed.
