# The Cheerleading Worlds

The Cheerleading Worlds, or Cheerleading World Championships, colloquially known as "Worlds", is an annual international championship event for competitive cheerleading held in the United States hosted by the U.S. All Star Federation in partnership with the International All Star Federation (the global organization of professionals and athletes involved in a club or All Star Cheer). Teams from around the world annual to receive a bid to go on and compete in Orlando, Florida, at the ESPN Wide World of Sports.
The event is typically held across a three-day span in April or May, featuring preliminary competitions, semi-finals and finals. Only level 5, 6 and 7 cheerleading teams with bids from regional and national competitions are eligible to participate, being offered a "paid" bid covering all expenses up to $25,000, or an "at-large" bid which does not cover any costs. Around 9,000 athletes from around 40 countries compete annually, with routines being judged on difficulty, execution, creativity and overall composition. The top teams from each round advance, with the winners in each of the 22 divisions receiving championship rings.
From 2007 onwards, The Dance Worlds began concurrently as a sub-event of The Cheerleading Worlds. Like the Cheerleading Worlds, this event is also an invite-only event hosted by the USASF in collaboration with the IASF, showcasing elite dancers from around the world in styles such as hip hop, jazz, pom, kick, contemporary and lyrical. The Dance Worlds currently attracts over 3500 teams made up of over 9000 athletes.
In 2023, 308 dance teams made of 4,219 athletes from 15 countries and 539 cheerleading teams made of 11,590 athletes from 18 countries participated in the Cheerleading and Dance Worlds events.
In 2024, 378 dance teams made of 2,912 dancers from 19 countries and 563 cheerleading teams made of 12,838 athletes from 21 countries participated in the Cheerleading and Dance Worlds events. A newly opened (2023) cheerleading gym from Queensland Australia became the first team in history to globe at Worlds in their first cheer season. (23/24). Cheerleading has been officially recognised by the Olympic foundation and continues to grow at an exponential rate.

## Bids

Both The Cheerleading Worlds and The Dance Worlds are invite-only events, with teams required to win bids in order to qualify to compete.
Three types of bids are available: "paid" and "at-large".

### Paid Bids

Paid bids are only offered to cheerleading teams for the Cheerleading Worlds portion of the event.
For cheerleading teams, a paid bid is designed to cover all competition expenses, including lodging, transportation and registration fees to compete, up to a maximum of $650 per athlete, and for up to two coaches. Paid bids for cheer teams are only awarded to the highest scoring teams at the largest and most prestigious competitions throughout the season leading up to the Cheerleading Worlds event.

### Partial-Paid Bids

Partial-paid bids are also offered for cheerleading teams, awarding up to $325 per athlete and up to two coaches on a bid-winning team for a team's registration package, lodging, and/or transportation to Orlando to participate in the event.
Partial-paid bids are the only form of paid bid offered for dance teams for the Worlds event, also covering the cost of their registration packaging, accommodation and/or transportation to Orlando at a rate of $325 per athlete and up to two coaches, with a maximum of $5000 awarded per team.

### At-Large Bids

At-large bids are the other type of bid available, working the same for both cheer and dance teams for these events. These bids are typically awarded to the teams who are eligible to compete at the Worlds events who are runners-up at bid-qualifying events, functioning as an invitation but requiring teams to pay for 100% of their own costs related to their participation at the event.

### Bid-Qualifying Events

More than 120 USASF/IASF member event producers across the United States, as well as event producers within 32 international countries, have the right to host bid qualifying events for both cheer and dance teams.
For the 2023–2024 season, there are 35 bid-qualifying events within the United States at which a team can win a bid to the 2024 Dance Worlds.

### Junior Team Bids (Dance)

In 2010, the Dance Worlds introduced a junior division, in which the bid process functioned differently. Junior teams did not win their bids at events, but rather via a review of video submissions. For US teams, any junior team was welcomed to submit a video to be reviewed, however only six teams were selected to receive at-large bids to compete in this division.

### Bid Rules

A team awarded a bid must compete at the Worlds event in the same division and team-makeup in which they performed in at the qualifying event where their bid was awarded. The only exception to this is teams competing within the limited division, which is set aside for gyms that only field one Worlds-eligible team. The number of athletes that compete on any Worlds team is not allowed to exceed the number of athletes that took the floor with the team at their bid-qualifying event.
Cheer athletes within the same club are also limited to the number of teams in which they are eligible to compete and earn paid bids, with an athlete being bound to the second team they compete with that receives a paid bid. Teams are also limited in the number of athletes who previously earned paid bids who are allowed to compete for and be awarded paid bids on a second team.
Substitutes and wild-card alternates are also limited, with the number varying by division and global location.
Crossovers of athletes are not permitted between teams from the same club, between different clubs, or between cheer and dance teams from the same or different clubs. In other words, an athlete is only allowed to represent one team in either cheer or one club in dance when competing at Worlds. Also, there is a limit on the number of athletes per team that can compete at both the Summit (an end of year competition for levels 1-5) and The Cheerleading Worlds during the same competition season. This can be complicated for gyms as many level 6 worlds athletes also cross-compete with a level 4 or 5 Summit team at their gym.

## Cheer Levels and Divisions

The levels and divisions that are offered have changed significantly since the first event in 2004, with the event seeing a large growth and expansion over the years.
In 2025, the event will offer divisions in levels 5, 6 and 7 for international teams competing in IASF worlds divisions, while only offering level 6 divisions in USASF worlds divisions.

It is known that for the 2024 event, the age grids will shift once again, with the minimum age for IASF open divisions levels 5 and 6 increasing to a minimum of 16 years old. Teams competing at the Cheerleading Worlds from the USA must follow the USASF age grid, eligibility, substitutions and alternate guidelines, which will have a known impact on the 2024 Cheerleading Worlds event as the minimum age for open teams saw a rise to a minimum of 18 years on the USASF age grid for the 2023–2024 season.

## Dance Styles and Divisions

The categories/styles that have been offered across the competition include hip hop, jazz, pom, contemporary/lyrical, kick, open and junior. USASF divisions offered the opportunity for teams with a target age of 13 to 19 years from within the United States to compete, with IASF divisions offering the opportunity for junior teams aged between 11 and 16 years old and open teams aged 15+ years old to compete.
USASF and IASF provide slightly differing descriptions of these styles, describing their expectations of routines entered within these categories:
| Category | USASF Category Description 2023 | IASF Category Description 2023 |
| Hip Hop | "A Hip Hop routine can incorporate any street style movement that has evolved from the hip hop culture. Emphasis is placed on the execution of authentic style(s), originality, control, musicality, intricacy, uniformity and may incorporate purposeful elements and skills" | "A Hip Hop routine incorporates authentic street style-influenced movements with groove and style. An emphasis is placed on group execution, including synchronization, uniformity and spacing. The choreography of a dynamic and effective routine utilizes musicality, staging, complexity of movement and athleticism. Distinctive clothing and accessories reflecting the Hip Hop culture must be worn." |
| Jazz | "A Jazz routine can encompass any range of jazz movement including traditional jazz, commercial jazz, musical theater, jazz funk or stylized, hard-hitting jazz. Movement is crisp and/or aggressive in approach and can include moments of softness while complementing musicality. Emphasis is placed on style, body alignment, extension, control, uniformity, technical elements and communication." | "A Jazz routine incorporates traditional or stylized dynamic movements with strength, continuity, presence and proper technical execution. An emphasis is placed on group execution including synchronization, uniformity and spacing. The choreography of a dynamic and effective routine utilizes musicality, staging and complexity of movement and skills. The overall impression of the routine should be lively, energetic and motivating, with the understanding that the dynamics of movement may change to utilize musicality. Costuming should reflect the category style." |
| Pom | "A Pom routine contains important characteristics such as strong pom quality of movement (clean, precise, sharp motions), synchronization, visual effects and may incorporate purposeful pom elements (i.e. pom passes, jump sequences, leaps|turns, kick lines, etc). Poms should be used throughout the routine. Inadequate use of poms may also affect the panel judges’ overall impression and/ or score of the routine." | "A Pom routine incorporates the use of proper pom motion technique that is sharp, clean and precise while allowing for the use of concepts from jazz, hip hop and high kick. An emphasis is placed on group execution including synchronization, uniformity and spacing. The choreography of a dynamic and effective routine focuses on musicality and staging of visual effects through fluid and creative transitions, levels and groups, along with complexity of movement and skills. Poms are required to be used throughout the routine." |
| Contemporary/Lyrical | "A Contemporary or Lyrical routine uses organic, expressive, pedestrian and/or traditional modern and/ or ballet vocabulary as it complements the lyric, mood and/or rhythmic value of the music. Emphasis is placed on control, expressive movement, dynamics, alignment, use of breath, uniformity, communication and may incorporate purposeful elements and skills." | |
| Kick/High Kick | "A Kick routine emphasizes control, height uniformity, extension, toe points, timing and creativity of a variety of kick series and patterns. A kick is defined as one foot remaining on the floor while the other foot lifts with force. Kicks should be performed throughout the routine. Inadequate utilization of kicks may also affect the panel judges’ overall impression and/or score of the routine." | "A High Kick routine incorporates the use of proper high kick technique that includes flexibility, endurance, stamina, upper and lower body strength, placement and control, while allowing for the use of creative concepts such as staging and skills. High Kicks are required to be used throughout the majority of the routine in a purposeful manner and should be the emphasis of routine content. The choreography of a dynamic and effective high kick routine focuses on musicality, staging of visual effects through intervals in kick lines, fluid and creative transitions, levels and groups, along with complexity of movement and athleticism. An emphasis is placed on execution including synchronization, uniformity, and spacing. Costuming should reflect the category style." |
| Open | | "Performances in Open Open incorporate organic, pedestrian and/or traditional modern or ballet vocabulary as it complements the lyrics and/or rhythmic value of the music. An emphasis is placed on group execution, including synchronization, uniformity and spacing. The choreography of a dynamic and effective routine utilizes musicality, staging and complexity of movement and skills. Costuming should reflect the category style." |
| Junior | | "All performances in the Junior Division, regardless of style, will be judged against each other in the Junior Dance division. A routine in this division may incorporate any one style or combination of styles outlined in the IASF categories above." |

The first USASF World Cheerleading Championship was held on April 24, 2004. This event was an invite-only competition, with only two divisions - Senior All Girl Level 5 and Senior Coed Level 5 - and only 14 teams competing. This first event was held at a backstage sound stage at Disney MGM Studios (now Disney Hollywood Studios) at Walt Disney World that held a maximum of 500 spectators.

Athletes were not allowed to cross over between cheer and dance teams from the same or other gyms, compete in more than one team, or perform in more than two categories with their team. If a team is found to have a crossover, the team was disqualified, responsible for repaying the total cost of any funds received through a paid or partial paid bid, and was ineligible for any type of bid for The Cheerleading or Dance Worlds for the following years.

## 2010

The 2010 Cheerleading and Dance Worlds were held between April 22 and 26, 2010 at Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida.
Cheerleading divisions were held on April 24 and 25, 2010 at the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex, with preliminary rounds being held within the Disney Hollywood Studios theme park for the international divisions. Dance divisions were held at EPCOT's World Showcase Pavilion from April 22 to 26, 2010. This year saw the introduction of an international junior dance division for athletes 14 years and younger, competing in the open category where they may incorporate any one style or combination of styles. All styles within the category were judges against each other, with the emphasis placed on choreography, proper technical execution, visual effect, creativity, staging and team uniformity. Semi-finals were also held for this category, with three of the highest scoring teams from each country progressing to finals. Teams within this category did not win their bids at events, rather having the opportunity to submit a video where the top 3 teams were picked to represent their country at the 2010 Dance Worlds. The 2010 Dance Worlds event also saw a split within the Senior Hip Hop division, with a co-ed division being created for teams that contained 2 or more males.
The 2010 event rules limited an athlete to performing a maximum of three times, representing the same studio/program/gym. Crossovers of participants from other studios/programs/gyms were not allowed, with crossovers between cheer and dance teams, regardless of whether it was the same or another studio, also not permitted. If a team was found to breach this rule, the team was disqualified, responsible for repaying the total cost of any funds received through a partial paid bid, and were not eligible for any type of bid for the Cheerleading or Dance Worlds the following year.

This meant that an athlete who was 13, but turned 14 before December 31, 2012, was eligible to compete at the 2012 Cheerleading and Dance Worlds in the international open categories that had a minimum age of 14.

## 2018

The Cheerleading and Dance Worlds 2018 took place at Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida, between April 28 and 30, 2018. Cheerleading divisions were held at the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex, with dance divisions being held at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort and Convention Center.
In 2018, senior extra small all-girl level 5 and senior extra small coed level 5 divisions were now eligible for worlds, with some stipulations. These stipulations included that a program could only have one extra small team, either all-girl or coed, and that if a program received a bid in either senior extra small all-girl or senior extra small coed, the program may not compete in any other division or alternatively, the extra small division team must compete in the senior small division.
World trials were held for Canadian teams in the international open all-girl level 5 division and international open small coed level 5 and for US teams in international open small coed 5, international large coed level 5 to advance the top 10 teams to the international division semi-finals.

## 2019

The 2019 Cheerleading and Dance Worlds was held 27–29 April 2019 at Walt Disney World.
This year saw the introduction of a range of new US only cheerleading divisions, including senior open level 5, senior open small coed level 5 and senior open large coed level 5 divisions. A relaxation was also made in the US only senior extra small all-girl and senior extra small coed divisions, allowing for any program regardless of number of worlds teams to field a team in this division.
New international cheerleading divisions were also introduced, bringing in non-tumbling divisions and global cheer divisions that included crowd-leading cheer alongside the cheer routine. These divisions were introduced for level 5, in both all-girl and co-ed divisions.
Dance divisions also saw a shakeup, with a split occurring between small and large teams in the senior contemporary/lyrical division, as well as a division split between elite and premier hip hop teams in open hip hop and open coed hip hop. Kick was also introduced for the first time as a dance style category.
Preliminaries were held for at-large bid winners in the senior extra small and senior small categories for both all-girl and coed teams.

## 2020

The 2020 Cheerleading and Dance Worlds were originally scheduled to take place April 24–27, 2020.
As part of the intended scheduled competition, USASF and IASF had adjusted division levels, with level 5 restricted becoming level 5, level 5 becoming level 6 and level 6 becoming level 7. IASF had intended to add level 5 divisions to the event as a result, including International Open All-Girl Level 5, International Open Small Coed Level 5, and International Open Large Coed Level 5. They also planned to add International Open All-Girl Non-Tumbling Level 7 and International Open Non-Tumbling Coed Level 7. The new level 5 and non-tumbling level 7 divisions were restricted to only non-U.S. based teams.
However, due to the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the USASF announced on April 23, 2020, that the event was cancelled.
Before announcing the cancellation, USASF had sent an email to gym owners and coaches exploring the possibility of postponing the event until the last week of June 2020, which ultimately did not go ahead.
IASF did not cancel their divisions outright for the year at the time of the USASF cancellation, instead postponing with the hope of running a September event in conjunction with the ICU World Championships. However, by May 2020, it became apparent that would not be viable, leading to IASF director, Les Stella, issuing an official notice of cancellation. At the time, they also announced they would be extending the junior division ages a year, in order for any 2020 IASF junior-aged athlete to be eligible to compete in 2021.
Controversy broke out surrounding the USASF cancellation due to the news being leaked before a public announcement. USASF sent a confidential email to gym/studio owners and coaches the night before a planned public announcement, explaining their cancellation decision, with the intent of allowing gym owners and coaches to disseminate that information among their worlds athletes and families before the public was aware. The owner of the cheer news updates site, "Cheer Updates", DJ Yeager, was a cheer coach who also received this email, publishing the news to his Cheer Updates site shortly after receiving the email, before USASF had made their public announcement. This was the first that some athletes and families had heard of the cancellation, as their programs had not yet informed them, causing wide-scale controversy and confusion in the time before USASF made their announcement.

## 2021

The Cheerleading and Dance Worlds 2021 was the first year that saw an event go ahead with USASF and IASF running their worlds events separately as a result of travel restrictions associated with COVID-19.
For 2021, the level changes that had been intended to be implemented for IASF governed cheerleading divisions at the cancelled 2020 event were enacted. In October 2018, IASF announced an introduction of a level 7 division for the 2020 world championships, with level 5 restricted becoming level 5, level 5 becoming level 6 and level 6 becoming level 7. This had an impact on the divisions offered at both events held this year.

### 2021 USASF Worlds

The USASF Cheerleading and Dance Worlds took place between May 6–10, 2021, at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, Walt Disney World, Florida. Instead of running concurrently, the Dance Worlds divisions ran first on May 6 and 7, 2021, while the Cheerleading Worlds divisions ran on May 8–10, 2021, in order to reduce crowds as a protective measure against COVID-19. Due to international travel restrictions, this event was restricted to only teams from the U.S. competing.
In recognition of the impact that COVID-19 had on teams being able to attend events to earn a worlds bid, USASF introduced applicant bids for this event only. This allowed teams that attended at least three 2020-21 USASF-sanctioned competitions, one of which must have been a 2021 worlds bid qualifying event, to apply for a bid. If approved, this was treated as an "at-large" bid, with teams paying for their own worlds registration packages and all other expenses.
Exceptions were also made to the cheer athlete bid limitations for the 2021 event only due to the uncertainty around COVID-19, with the number of athletes that previously earned a paid bid, and were eligible to compete for and be awarded a paid bid on a second team were not held to compete with the second team. The number of athletes eligible for this exception per team ranged from 1-3 depending on the size of the team/division.
Crossover rules were altered for this year as an exception to the normal rule, allowing crossover of athletes between dance and cheer teams, allowing an athlete to compete in both The Cheerleading Worlds and The Dance Worlds for the first time in the event's history. The number of times an athlete was allowed to perform was also increased, with an athlete now allowed to perform up to five times. Crossovers between dance programs remained prohibited at this event.
Preliminary rounds were held for teams in teams competing in the senior extra small all-girl level 6, senior extra small coed level 6 and senior open small coed level 6 divisions.
All dance teams competed in semi-finals in each division and category. A minimum of 50% of teams in the senior divisions advanced to finals, with the top three teams from each country in the IASF open and junior divisions advancing to finals.

### 2021 IASF Worlds

With the aim of making some level of participation available for athletes around the globe, IASF announced in February 2021 that they were working to secure dates in September 2021 for the IASF Worlds Championship events for both cheerleading and dance. At that time in February, they were also considering a virtual 2021 option, as well as a hybrid format allowing for both in-person and virtual categories. However, it was announced in June 2021 that due to ongoing restrictions and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the IASF Worlds would take place virtually in 2021.
Due to the ongoing impact, the announcement was made by IASF in July that they would be hosting the event virtually on October 1–2, 2021, with teams submitting videos of a "semi-final" and "finals" performance taken inside of a consecutive three-day window via the CheerMatch app, that would be scored by the judges.
Eligible cheerleading teams included all teams who had earned a bid to the cancelled 2020 Worlds event, as well as any bids earned for the 2021 event. Level 7 Cheerleading teams were not required to earn a bid to enter, with it open to all, and no substitute rule and regulations were enforced at this event. Due to the impact of COVID-19, IASF allowed U17 (Junior) and U19 (Senior) teams to have an extra year of eligibility at the upper end of their age ranges to recognise the athletes who had aged out never finishing their final year.
Eligible dance teams included both U.S. and non-U.S. dance teams that had earned a 2020 or 2021 Worlds' bid in the International, Open or Junior division, with non-U.S. junior division teams being exempt from earning a bid to participate. In recognition of COVID-19 restrictions and their impacts on countries holding qualifying competitions, a team was also allowed to apply for an at-large bid based on their 2019–2020 season history if they did not have an existing bid.
To accommodate the virtual format, upon registration, teams selected a three-day window between September 1 and September 22 in which to record and submit routines via the CheerMatch Capture App. During their three-day period, teams were allotted two capture opportunities for two different performances, in which they could choose the best capture for each, and designate one performance for "semi-finals" and the other for "finals".
Judges scored all semi-final performances in each division on October 1, with the top three teams from each country in each division advancing to the finals round, where the pre-recorded performances were judged on October 2 to determine the champions.

## 2022

The 2022 Cheerleading and Dance Worlds event returned to its regular in person format, with IASF and USASF worlds being held as part of the same event. This competition was held between April 23 to 25, 2022 at Walt Disney World Resort, with cheerleading divisions returning to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, and dance divisions returning to Coronado Springs Resort and Convention Centre.
Cheerleading preliminaries were held at this event for teams with at large bid in the senior extra small all-girl, senior extra small coed, senior open small coed, international open all-girl non-tumbling level 6 and international open coed non-tumbling level 6 divisions. The top 10 teams from the preliminary rounds advanced to compete in the semi-final round along with teams who held partially paid and fully paid bids. The change was made in round advancements this year that if 40 or more teams competed in a division's preliminary round or semi-final round, then 15 teams would move forward to the next round of the competition instead of the traditional 10 teams.
However, only senior small hip hop teams that held at-large bids competed in dance division preliminaries, with a minimum of 50% of these teams advancing to semi-finals with partial-paid bid teams. Semi-finals were held for all dance divisions, with 50% of teams in senior divisions and top three teams from each country in open and junior divisions advancing to finals.
At this event, three new senior cheerleading divisions were offered for programs that were represented by only one team at the Cheerleading Worlds in the extra small/small all-girl, extra small coed and small coed divisions. Teams qualified by competing in their traditional category, but had the option to transfer to the appropriate limited category when registering for worlds.
IASF announced in May 2018 that they would be applying a "full top uniform" rule from the 2021 Cheerleading Worlds event onwards for teams in the international IASF-governed divisions, however, this was pushed to 2022 as a result of the pandemic. This meant that the 2022 Cheerleading Worlds was the first event to enforce this rule. This rule stated that teams competing in any international division must compete in a full top uniform, with no crop tops, half tops or mid-riffs being allowed per the image policy. This rule change was put in place in an attempt to promote a more globally athletic image of cheer.
The previous crossover rules that prohibited an athlete from performing in divisions at both The Cheerleading Worlds, as well as The Dance Worlds, returned. Crossover rules continued that prohibited an athlete from crossing over between dance programs at The Dance Worlds. An athlete was allowed to perform up to five times representing the same dance program at the event.

## 2023

The 2023 Cheerleading and Dance Worlds were held from April 21 to April 24, 2023, at Walt Disney World Resort, Orlando, Florida. Cheerleading divisions were held at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, while dance divisions were held at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort and Convention Centre.
Cheerleading preliminary competition rounds were held for senior open small coed teams with at-large bids, and U.S. teams with at-large bids in the international open all-girl non-tumbling level 6 and international open coed non-tumbling level 6 divisions. The top 10 teams from each of these preliminary rounds advanced to the semi-final rounds which included teams with partially paid and fully paid bids.
The semi-final round for the international open all-girl non-tumbling level 6 and international open coed non-tumbling level 6 divisions were declared the U.S. world trials, including only paid bid U.S. teams and the top 10 U.S. at large-bid teams from the preliminary round. Trophies and gold, silver and bronze medallions were awarded to the top three U.S. teams, and U.S. teams placing fourth through 10th were awarded trophies. The top three teams U.S. teams from this semi-final advanced to the division finals, along with the top three teams from other countries from the semi-finals.
Dance preliminary competition rounds were held for teams with at-large bids in the senior small contemporary/lyrical division, with a minimum of 50% of teams advancing to the semi-finals. Semi-finals were held for all divisions, with senior divisions having 50% of teams advance to the finals and open and junior divisions advancing the top three teams from each country.
IASF introduced five new international world cheerleading divisions for teams under 18. Prior to 2023, IASF international worlds divisions had no maximum age, with athletes instead having to meet a minimum age to be eligible for teams, making these divisions the first divisions with such a maximum. Three of these divisions were level 5, which remained restricted to entry by non-U.S. teams - U18 all-girl level 5, U18 small coed level 5 and U18 large coed level 5 - and two in level 6 in non-tumbling variants - U18 all-girl non-tumbling level 6 and U18 coed non-tumbling level 6. Despite the introduction of five divisions, lack of entries meant that only four competed with no U18 large coed level 5 teams entering this division at the competition.
IASF also raised the minimum age for open and global division teams to 15 years old, announcing they would further raise the age to 16 for the 2023–2024 season and Cheerleading Worlds 2024.
Kick was introduced as a new style into the USASF senior categories, expanding it from previously only be an international open category only.
