The first Hungarian University Cheerleading team just won a World Championship

The first World University Cheerleading Championship took place in Poland on October 5^th and 6^th. Nemzeti Sport writes that Hungary was represented too and even became a world champion.

While cheerleading teams representing several Hungarian universities have proved themselves to the world on competitions and with their creativity, it is the first time that a national university cheerleading group was assembled, and they have won on their first try.

The Hungarian University Cheerleading team competed in two categories at the first World University Cheerleading Championship in Lodz, Poland – in the Small Coed Elite category and the Pom Dance Double category.

The team placed first in the previous category, dedicated to 20-member groups, while the duo representing Hungary in the latter one, placed 7^th.

The Double Dance took place on the first day of the event; the Hungarian colours were worn by Patrícia Rózsás (Eötvös Loránd University) and Patrícia Balogh (Corvinus University of Budapest). Nemzeti Sport describes their choreography as a spectacular one, which captivated both the jury and the spectators. They have placed 7^th in the preliminaries; the USA, Japan and Russia occupied the first three places – all three countries are world champions.
