CheerFest Divisions and Rules

CheerFest Follows the IASF Rules exactly.

2008-2009 Level Rules for All Star Teams Only (note: .pdf document)

In addition to the IASF Rules, CheerFest is proud to introduce...

Level - 5X

What is 5x? - Exactly like the current USASF level 5 with ONE exception, NO double twisting in tumbling.

Level play allows your all star team to compete on the level that you feel most comfortable!

Violation of the level rules will result in a 10-point penalty per violation, and will be deducted from the final score.

These guidelines are provided to ensure a "level" playing field for all CheerFest competitors. They are to be considered with the most strict interpretation. If you have a stunt/trick that you think could be an exception, please send a video to CheerFest before the date of the competition in which you intend to perform.

Large = 21+ Members Small = 20- Members 36 Member Maximum RULE CHANGE for 2008-2009 - USASF companies are REQUIRED to combine Large/Small Teams, even Co-Ed/All girl in some instances. see here Unlike the USASF, CheerFest acknowledges that combining small/all girl teams with large/Co-Ed teams offers the larger/Co-Ed teams a distinct advantage. Although CheerFest may* combine large and small teams in order to ensure quality competition, we will take into account the number of squad members so that it is fair to all. This is done solely at the discretion of CheerFest management.
