We restored the costume of those times and prepared a few more surprises. In an interview with the Lithuanian media, when asked "What do you consider your team's greatest achievement?" Elena Rozhkova, the Red Foxes team leader and president of the cheerleading federation, answered:
"Perhaps earlier I would have said that the greatest achievement is three Olympic Games and nine European Championships. However, now I know for sure that our greatest achievement is that we still exist during the war. The Red Foxes team consists of girls from all over Ukraine. Through their stories, we feel the pain of this war. Thanks to sports, dancing and teamwork, it is easier for us to maintain our and our families' mental health during the invasion. I would like to thank everyone who helps us and all Ukrainians in this difficult time in Lithuania," says Olena.
