02 / ONE AND DONE

Best of the West Cheer and Dance Championships is a single day event jam packed with over 1450 athletes from across western Canada. Best of the West offers school, all star, demo, dance and specialty cheer divisions. Teams will have either a single run or two runs (depending on division) to see if they have what it takes to take home the prestigous Western Canadian regional title as "Best of the West".

Best of the West Cheer and Dance Championships is owned by the Saskatchewan Cheerleading Association (SCA) and will be using SCA Judging. Click here for more information on scoring and rules. All Saskatchewan teams are required by the SCA to be current SCA members. Out of province teams must show proof of insurance to the event provider prior to competing.
