USA Cheer asserted its global dominance once again at the 2025 ICU Cheerleading World Championships in Orlando, sweeping gold medals in both the All-Girl Premier and Coed Premier divisions. Through unmatched difficulty, execution, and teamwork, Team USA showcased why they continue to set the international standard in cheerleading.

On day one, the All-Girl Premier team delivered one of the most solid hit-zero routines in the history of cheerleading, electrifying the arena with elite stunts, gravity-defying baskets, and flawless pyramids. Their airtight tumbling passes and impeccable synchronization captured the attention of the entire cheer world.

The Coed Premier team also hit on day one, but made major corrections throughout their performance. Despite this, their exceptional difficulty and powerful execution propelled them ahead of a competitive field.

Neither team delivered a perfect performance in Finals, but their difficulty level and overall excellence set them apart from the competition and secured their gold medal finishes.
