MANILA, Philippines (UPDATED) – The University of the Philippines Pep Squad as well as the UP Filipiniana Dance Group brought home 6 medals from the 2nd Asian Cheerleading Dancesport Championships (ACDC) held in Jakarta, Indonesia from November 26 to 27.
According to Prof. Eloi Hernandez, faculty adviser and manager of the UP Pep Squad, via student publication Tinig ng Plaridel, the UP teams that represented the Philippines won the gold medal in the Mixed Group Stunts category.
They also bagged 3 silver medals in the All-Female Team Cheer, Cheerdance Duo, and Cheerdance Group categories, and added two more bronze medals from the All-Female Group Stunts and Mixed Team Cheer categories.
The UP Pep Squad pulled out of the 2016 UAAP Cheerdance Competition after the team’s protest from last year’s competition went unresolved.
The team is reportedly set to compete once again at the 9th Cheerleading World Championships to be held in Takasaki City, Japan next year.
The UP Pep Squad also represented the Philippines in the 8th edition of the World Championships in 2015 in Berlin, Germany, where they took home one silver and two bronze medals. – Rappler.com
