Yes, this is the moment all cheerleaders have been waiting for- competing at the USASF Cheerleading Worlds. This is the World competition where the best of the best cheerleading teams perform. Hundreds of teams from all around the globe travel to Orlando's Wide World Of Sports arena every April to achieve their dreams- winning the gold metal as well as a specialized Worlds ring. Every year it is a tough battle between these elite teams. Some of the top-notch gyms that went were Maryland Twisters, World Cup, Cheer Extreme, California Allstars, Brandon Allstars, Spirit of Texas Allstars, Cheer Athletics, and the Top Gun Allstars.
Worlds is not only a constant clash of cheerleaders, but it is also a time to reunite with friends from different gyms. Cheerleaders get to see their friends from different states and watch them perform. Some girls trade gym t-shirts or gym apparel for other sports bras or shorts from another cheerleading gym. You can also find cheerlebrities at Worlds, like Gabi Butler from Top Gun Allstars, Kiara Nowlin from California Allstars, Maddie Gardner from Cheer Extreme, and many more. Friday, April 27, many cheerlebrities met at the arena to sign shirts, bows, and even competition shoes for good luck! Many cheerleaders look up to these outstanding athletes and cheer them on as they perform their impressive routines on the floor.
Since this is a major competition, various cheer teams change their music, competition uniforms, and their routines. They especially transform their routines so the other cheerleading teams do not copy or mock them, having similar stunts and choreography. Their goal is to be original and unique. Some teams tweak their music and add fierce voice overs. Not all, but most cheerleading teams modify their uniforms to impress the judges and the world. Maryland Twisters F5, wore two specialized uniforms at worlds. Top Gun Allstars really wowed the audience with their new sparkly top and capri leggings, not the usual cheerleading uniform.
