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.[1] The event is typically held across a three-day span in April or May, featuring preliminary competitions, semi-finals and finals.[2] 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.[3][4][5] Around 9000 athletes from around 40 countries compete annually,[6] with routines being judged on difficulty, execution, creativity and overall composition.[7] The top teams from each round advance, with the winners in each of the 22 divisions receiving championship rings.[4]
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.[8]
In 2023, 308 dance teams made of 4219 athletes from 15 countries[9] and 539 cheerleading teams made of 11,590 athletes from 18 countries participated in the Cheerleading and Dance Worlds events.[10]
