STUNT
We are thrilled to announce that Elevation Athletics is looking to field a Fall STUNT program. This preliminary season (September–December) will focus on learning routines, building skills, and participating in in-house games, laying the foundation to field competitive Club STUNT teams next season.
​
What is Stunt?
STUNT the Sport is one of the fastest-growing female sports in the country, created by USA Cheer in 2010 to give athletes a competitive cheer-based sport that schools can count for Title IX participation. Since then, more than 100 colleges and 400 high schools have participated, making it one of the nation’s most rapidly expanding athletic opportunities. Unlike traditional cheerleading, STUNT removes the crowd-leading element and focuses exclusively on the technical and athletic components of cheer skills:

How Stunt is Played
Games are divided into four quarters of play:
-
Partner Stunts – Precision and synchronization in intricate stunt sequences
-
Jumps & Tumbling – Agility, power, and acrobatics combined in fast-paced routines
-
Pyramids & Tosses – Teamwork and strength to construct elaborate builds with dramatic tosses
-
Team Performance – The grand finale, where all elements come together in one seamless routine
Two teams compete head-to-head on the floor, performing the same routine side by side. Judges award points based on execution and precision. The team that performs the skills best wins the round and the point. The leveled play system ensures opportunities for athletes of all ages and ability levels.​
