Hello Texas Twirl Fans!
As the countdown to AYOP continues and we get closer to the big week, we want to take a moment to look back on our very first Super West Regional Championship that was held in April. Contest Director Sheila Rigelsky and her team did a wonderful job, and we are excited to have many of the very first Super West pageant winners be from Texas!
To celebrate our new Super West Regional Pageant title holders we will be recognizing them here on the blog. Congrats to all of these talented twirlers on their success at the inaugural Super Regional.
Today we will be recognizing the 2026 Super West Basic Skills Pageant Winners!
