Feedback from Participant :
I was greatly inspired by the fact that the cheerleading competitiveness of the participating teams has greatly improved. I couldn't win this tournament, but I would like to actively work toward winning next year. At the exchange meeting, it was very meaningful to be able to form a bond of friendship with the cheerleaders from each country.
