The Australian All Star Cheerleading Federation (AASCF) has confirmed that AASCF Nationals 2025 is officially at capacity, closing entries nearly three weeks ahead of schedule. Last year’s Nationals set a new benchmark with 2,400 teams and 12,000 athletes, and 2025 has already surpassed those record-breaking numbers to become the largest AASCF Nationals in history.
“Nationals reached full capacity almost three weeks earlier than expected,” said AASCF’s Program Manager and Event Director, Rachelle Robertson. “This year we’ve surpassed last year’s field, making 2025 the largest AASCF Nationals in history across both team entries and athlete participation.”
The 2025 AASCF Nationals will run November 20–24 at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre, bringing together thousands of athletes from across Australia for five days of competition.

On Monday, November 24, the spotlight shifts to the Road to Worlds segment, where IASF-eligible teams perform a second routine to compete for bids to the 2026 IASF Cheerleading and Dance World Championships in Orlando. This year’s allocation includes 66 Worlds bids — 30 Cheer and 36 Dance — the largest in the event’s history.
Adding to the significance, AASCF Nationals 2025 marks the first stop of the Cheer Daily On Tour 25/26 season. Cheer Daily will deliver full coverage direct from Melbourne, including results, highlights, and Worlds bid updates.
Since its launch in 2005, AASCF has set the benchmark for All Star cheer and dance in Australia, providing not only championship events but also education, clinics, and accreditation that progress the sport. Nationals remains the pinnacle — and 2025 will be the biggest stage yet.
From record entries to Worlds bids, AASCF Nationals 2025 sets the tone for the season — and Cheer Daily On Tour is bringing every moment to fans worldwide.
