"One of our biggest goals is always to represent our gym and families to highest levels of class and athleticism!"

As one of the largest, single location all star teams in the southwest, Desert Storm Elite has been raising the bar for competition in the west since 2002. The program can be found in Scottsdale, AZ and brings ten teams to Spirit Sports Duel in the Desert 2018 to compete for bids and titles! You can spot them in a crowd by looking for a red, black, and white uniform embellished with their iconic symbol.

“One of our biggest goals is always to represent our gym and families to highest levels of class and athleticism!,” gym owner Eric Contreras commented as the teams made their way to Palm Springs. “Some of our program’s strengths are our coaching staff…and confidence on and off the competition floor!”

UNSTOPPABLE is the word of the year for this gym, as the coaching staff expects consistency among all of their teams and program. The gym is bringing two Worlds teams, Rage and Bliss, to Spirit Sports in hopes of claiming two of the four Paid Bids to the Cheerleading Worlds. Their Youth Level 2 team, Lady Ice, and Junior Level 2 team, Blush, already have their At Large Bids to The Summit, but the other Desert Storm Elite teams are ready to perform their best in hopes of making it to Orlando at the end of the season.

Watch Desert Storm Elite make their mark at Spirit Sports Duel in the Desert LIVE on Varsity TV Saturday February 3-4!
