All-Star Cheerleading is a highly competitive and growing sport for both girls and boys that combines gymnastics, dance, acrobatics, and elements of traditional cheerleading. All-Star teams have up to 36 athletes and complete routines set to 2.5 minutes of music. All-Star cheerleaders are purely competitive and do not cheer or lead the crowd for any sports teams or schools. All-Star teams typically compete against each other, based on age and skill level, between November and April each year.
