Hi Sherry! Both terms are right, but they have different meanings. A champion is the person who wins a contest, or who has won contests in the past. A championship can mean either the winning of the contest, or the contest itself.
- The Olympic champion is going to compete for another medal.
- The young biker has surprised everyone by winning this Olympic championship.
Is this helpful? Tell me if you need more help. Thanks! ~ kim

Are both of them right? - one is the contest, one is a person who is the winner of the contest.
Additional Details:
and when do we use champions ?
The person who won the championship can brag and tell everyone that he is the chanpion of the contest. The two other people who were runners-up are champions, but not THE champion.
