Come one, come all! Meet the leader of them all! 

Veteran Shooting Stars member Andrea Lipkus will proudly fill the shoes of this year's ringleader in the Stars' circus theme routine!

Andrea has been cheering at World Cup for nine years. She has been on Milky Ways, Dippers, Twinkles, Starlites, and is approaching her third year on Shooting Stars.

The first time you will see Andrea "whip out" a prop is in the opening of the routine. She starts out taming the "lions" in a show and go.

Her favorite part of the routine as ringleader is at the end of the elite sequence. As the section closes, you can find her in the front of the mat with a special hat on.

This part signifies that I am a proud ringleader after watching the team hit their stunts

Being chosen to have this special role in the routine is something that Andrea is proud of and excited about!

I feel honored that I was chosen to do this because I get to carry on the legacy of former shooting stars who had roles in previous routines.
