What is Competitive Cheer
All-Star Cheerleading is a competitive sport that involves a team of athletes performing a combination of stunts, tumbling, jumps, and dance routines. Our sport began as sideline cheerleading and has grown, with over 70 countries participating. In 2016, U.S. involvement in the sport rose 11.7%, with 4.03 million active cheerleaders ages six and older.
All Star Cheer is a unisex sport where a group of athletes of similar age & skill level create a team where they will be taught a routine comprised of stunting, tumbling, choreography, and dance elements. The routine time ranges between 1 minute 30 seconds and 2 minutes 30 seconds, depending on the cheer team tier. The routine they learn is performed on a 42x54 spring floor at local and national events throughout the season where they will compete against other teams of similar caliber.
The routines performed by All-Star Cheerleading teams are highly choreographed and typically include a combination of synchronized stunts, where athletes lift and toss each other in the air, tumbling skills such as flips and handsprings, jumps, and dance elements, all set to music. Teams are judged on their execution, difficulty level, creativity, and overall performance, to achieve the highest score possible.
All-Star Cheerleading is a physically demanding and highly competitive sport that requires athleticism, strength, flexibility, coordination, and teamwork. Athletes train extensively to develop their skills, and competitions can be intense and exciting, with teams vying for top honors and championships.
Overall, All-Star Cheerleading is a dynamic and thrilling sport that combines athleticism, showmanship, and teamwork.
In 2021, the International Olympic Committee recognized all-star cheerleading as an official sport in the Games.
