And they didn&#8217;t stop there, they also racked up a bunch of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place wins in different divisions.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded in 2019, the independent majorette club based at Aristea Primary School in Kraaifontein set out to create inclusive opportunities for girls to get involved in the sport. Today, the club proudly supports over 50 athletes between Grade R all the way to tertiary level from all over the northern suburbs of Cape Town.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-talents-and-passions\">Talents and passions\n<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The beautiful sport as it is often called gives a safe space to be mentored and practise positive self-image to thrive outside circumstances. Here the girs can showcase their talents and passions. Founder Yvonne Viljoen says the sport of majorettes fosters many life skills such as teamwork, perseverance, poise, time management, and determination, &#8220;&#8230;all of which were clearly on display as the club delivered a stellar performance at the provincial level,&#8221; she told TygerBurger last week. The club&#8217;s success comes down to a team of passionate coaches &#8211; Nicky Metcalf, Wilmar Baker, Robyn Jooste, Cameron Africa, Angke de Villiers, and Hope van Tonder. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;If you could bottle that feeling you feel in that moment, where it all comes together and your team wins&#8230; we are more than a team, we are a family.&#8221; But our biggest challenge still lies ahead. Now, the focus shifts to getting all 50 athletes to nationals, where we will fight to defend our National Championship title. The stakes are higher, the competition fiercer but so is our resolve.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-road-to-nationals\">The road to nationals\n<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the national championships set to take place at Ho\u00ebrskool Wesvalia in the North West Province between 11 and 17 July, rehearsals are in full swing prepping for national spotlight. But getting to nationals isn&#8217;t cheap, and with many families feeling the pinch right now, the club is reaching out to businesses, sponsors, and the community for support. They&#8217;re hoping to raise the funds needed so the team can make the trip to represent the Western Cape.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The club started a crowd funding campaign on BackaBuddy under the title &#8220;Help the Durbanville junior majorettes get to nationals&#8221; where every contribution big or small will take them a step closer to national stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
