East Coast Programs Back in Action - Athletic Championships Grand Nationals

It's another moment for East Coast programs to shine as they get ready to take the mat again this season at the 2025 Athletic Championships Grand Nationals! The Athletic Championships Grand Nationals kicks off a busy month in February full of exciting All Star events. Teams in the Northeast region have the chance to make some significant moves on The League by Varsity All Star Leaderboard with 600 points on the line this weekend. We're reaching that point in the season where teams are really starting to make their strides with consistency & perfection in every routine performed! Keep an eye out to see what teams will be hitting zero this weekend! The weekend is set to be loaded with talent with programs such as Star Athletics, Cheer Factor, East Celebrity Elite, World Cup, A-List Athletics, Maine Stars, and Northern Lights All Stars set to take the stage just to name a few! Here are some storylines we're excited to follow along with as these programs get ready to take the stage at the Rhode Island Convention Center. 


2025 Athletic Championships Grand Nationals - What To Look Out For

Maine Stars Glory

Maine Stars Glory was the talk of the town after two incredible performances last weekend at the Spirit Unlimited Battle at the Boardwalk Grand Nationals. Maine Stars Glory has become a powerhouse name in the L6 Limited XSmall Coed division and has plenty of momentum after a very successful 2023-2024 season. Maine Stars is taking on back-to-back Grand Nationals event weekends & ready to make a statement! Glory hit zero on Day 1 at Spirit Unlimited Battle at the Boardwalk Grand Nationals, and was nearly perfect on Day 2. Be sure to keep an eye on Glory as they look forward to another successful weekend. 

East Celebrity Elite Ready for Another Big Weekend 

East Celebrity Elite is ready to take the floor again after a great showing as a program at the 2025 Spirit Cheer Super Nationals. East Celebrity Elite Bomb Squad came out with a solid start to 2025 with two zero deduction routines at Spirit Cheer Super Nationals taking the win in the L6 Senior Small Coed division. Their routine is full of so many visual elements, and they displayed incredible precision in all of their stunts. East Celebrity Elite Bombshells is also set to take the stage coming off an exciting performance at The MAJORS 2025 where they finished in second place in the L6 Senior Small division. 

Crush (L2 Youth Medium), Angels (L4.2 Senior Coed), Encore (L4 Junior Small), Wicked (L4 Junior Medium), Bomb Girls (L4 Senior Medium), Spotlight (L5 Senior Coed) and J-WOW (L6 Junior) are all teams to keep an eye on after already being crowned National Champions so far this season! 

A-List Athletics Lady Lavish 

A-List Athletics Lady Lavish is a new & exciting team to keep an eye on in the L6 Senior XSmall division this season. A-List Athletics has been known for plenty of success in the L6 U18 Non-Tumbling division, but this season they are going big and adding another Level 6 team to the mix. Lady Lavish made a strong debut at JAMfest Cheer Super Nationals in January. The team came back on Day 2 with a strong & confident zero deduction routine to finish in fourth place in a division full of talent and depth! We're looking forward to seeing Lady Lavish take the stage with East Celebrity Elite Black Diamonds in this L6 Senior XSmall division this weekend!
