MORE than a soft-shoe shuffle brought trophies to Redditch, but now the current line dancing European champions need sponsorship.

The line dancing club Bootleggers sent a team to Pontin's in Brean to take part in the European championships 2006 in February and they came back with a clutch of awards.

Now Team Rebels want to go on to bigger and better things.

One of the team's mums, Ellen Southall, said: "I am proud of them all. They have worked very hard practising for years to get where they are.

"The costumes they need to compete in are very expensive though, so they are very much hoping for sponsorship to enter more competitions."

She said male and female club members meet on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at Rocklands, Crabbs Cross, and new members are always welcome.

To sponsor the team, call Mrs Southall on 456342.
