Forget pom-poms & girls on the sidelines, it takes strength, sweat and sparkle to be a world-class cheerleader.
Team captain, glamour queen Jessica; star athlete, CoVid anti-vaxer Jayleesa; dyslexic, athletic Blathnaid; out-n-proud, fun-loving Dean; freedom-seeking Taylor; and lost boy Rickie are each searching for their place in the world through the sport they love. As their anxiety-crippled coach, Hilton, battles to keep the team on track through a season of ill-discipline and injuries, we follow our underdog athletes’ journey to the World Championships in America.
