The Lil’ Idols and Impact Idols young cheer groups from Dexter made an impressive showing recently at a metro cheer competition.

The Lil’ Idols took second place in its division at the Champion Spirit Group Cheer and Dance Championship.

After an injury to one of the girls during warm-ups, one of the Impact Idols team members was unable to tumble. However, the Impact Idols worked to overcome this adversity and earned third place in the competition.

Following the competition a group of Dexter girls competed in a stunt, Liberty Competition. The girls took third against ALL squads at the competition.

The competition was held at Lafayette High School in Wildwood, in the West St. Louis County region. The teams are coached by Tory Hillis.
