2023 Pop Warner National Cheer & Dance Championship

The participants in the Pop Warner program are unique as opposed to those of other programs. While they are taught about the values of competition, they are also maintaining their grades at a satisfactory level to attain the ultimate prize of being named a Pop Warner National Champion!

This year's National Cheer & Dance Championships will feature more than 500 youth cheer and dance teams competing at the exciting event from December 4-7. Competitions will take place at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, FL.

For a cheerleading or dance team, the difficult road to the national championship is quite similar to that of the football teams. A spirit team will showcase their best 2:30 routine at the League Championship, and the top two teams in each division advance to the Region Championships.

At the Region Event, a spirit team will again perform their routine in hopes of placing first or second in their respective division to be invited to perform in Orlando.

Cheer & Dance teams compete in 5 different age ranges (Mitey Mite, Jr. Pee Wee, Pee Wee, Jr. Varsity & Varsity).

The Show Cheer and Sideline Performance Cheer teams also compete in sizes (Small, Medium & Large) and Cheer & Dance teams compete in nine YCADA Divisions (Show Cheer 1-4, PW 1, PW 2, PW 3, PW4, Core Cheer, Sideline Performance Cheer, Pom Performance, Hip Hop and Theme Dance).
