In the documentary, coach Sabrina Steele Mountjoy and her Welsh team – which consists of disabled and non-disabled athletes – take on Team USA as they gear up for the world championships in Florida.
During the 45-minute episode the group detail the highs and lows of being part of a cheer squad all hoping to take home the gold medal.
