Although all Canadian Cheer events are known for being run on time, unforeseen circ*mstances sometimes cause times to shift slightly.

2025 Division Splits are created with the following considerations:

  • Max # of stunt groups as the score sheet allots 60% of the score to building.
  • Consideration for reasonably competitive divisions (ie the desire to not have a division of 1 or 2 teams when possible).
  • Often there will be many teams of the exact size, hence why there is a slight variation of where the division split happens in each age group.

Score Check Schedule:

Teams will have 30 Minutes after their performance to report to Score Check for clarification/review. Teams that are last in their division should report immediately to Score Check as the timeline may be closer to 20 minutes after their performance time in order for us to remain on schedule for Awards.
