At the regional competitions, in order to accommodate larger competitions and the need for social distancing among spectators and eliminate mass gatherings, no regional trophies and awards presentation will be made but those earned trophies will be given to the teams upon arrival at the state championship. Due to capacity restrictions, it is important to note that for 2021 ONLY, each squad will be limited to a maximum of two (2) alternates and a maximum of two (2) coaches. Any additional team members will be required to purchase a ticket through GoFan.  

Regional Time Schedules have also been posted for each region. 

Regions 1-2 Time Schedule

Regions 3-4 Time Schedule

Regions 5-6 Time Schedule

Regions 7-8 Time Schedule

With the exception of the Game Day division, a maximum of the top two finishers in each division from each cheer region will advance to the state championships. Due to a significantly larger number of Game Day declarations, qualifiers for that division were prorated to determine the number of squads qualifying for the state championship. After reviewing the declarations/withdrawals, this chart illustrates the updated number of squads per division and per region that will qualify for state competition:

 

Region*	All-Girls Small – minimum 5, maximum of 15	All-Girls Medium – minimum 16, maximum of 19	All-Girls Large – minimum 20, maximum of 23	All-Girls Super – minimum 24, maximum of 30	Coed Division – 1 or more boys, minimum 5, maximum of 30	Game Day – minimum 5, maximum of 30
