Bremen's AWD-Dome gets ready for IFC's 5th Cheerleading World Championships at the end of the month. Currently the floor in the venue is covered with ice, as a famous figure-skating show - “Holiday on Ice“ - is running at the dome. But very soon the conversion into a cheerleading location is to take place, and then the scenery will be set for the elite cheerleaders of the world to take the stage. And not only will it get noisy and exciting in the competition area, the stands should be crowded as well, as recent figures from the advance ticketing department indicate.
At the start of the month more than 2,200 two-day-tickets were already sold, a proof of the high-profiled interest throughout the German cheerleading community, as most of these pre-orders came from outside of Bremen and a lot of those fans from all over Germany include an overnight stay into their plans for the trip to Bremen. Adding close to 1,000 one-day-tickets for Saturday and more than 1,000 for Sunday, when five new world champions are to be crowned, already more than 3,000 seats will be occupied on both of the competition days.

For the first time ever a team from the United States will compete at the Cheerleading World Championships 2009. For the event on the 28th and 29th November in Bremen, Germany, a Group Stunts team from the U.S. will be in the line-up and attempt to win the inaugural title in the Mixed Group Stunts category. This year, the three traditional competitions of past IFC Cheerleading World Championships, Cheer (All Female and Mixed) and Cheer Dance, are joined by All Female and Mixed competitions in Group Stunts, so five instead of three gold medals are to be awarded. Now these new competitions offer a chance for U.S. cheerleaders to enter the IFC World Championship stage, which might be a test case for broader participation in the future.

Karoline Linnert, one of the two Mayors of the city government of Bremen, will attend the Cheerleading World Championships 2009 in Bremen. Mrs. Linnert will take part in the official opening ceremonies on November 28 and subsequently witness the first day of the competition. Bremen is not only one of Germany's largest cities, but is also one of the 16 federal states within Germany. Thus, the city government and its Mayors do not just represent the city alone, but also are members of one of the two houses of the national German parliamentary system. It is of great honour for the International Federation of Cheerleading and the athletes of the CWC 2009 that the city and state of Bremen recognize the Cheerleading World Championships at Bremen as a high-profile event and one of the city and state leaders found time on her tight schedule to personally welcome all CWC participants to Bremen. |
