Cheerleading Stunts: Levels 1-5

There are also cheerleading competitions for the Special Olympics. School and youth divisions will usually have levels of difficulty between 1 and 5. Competitive groups can have up to level 6, but these are usually just senior level (age 17+).
Competitions can also be for co-ed groups (with at least 1 male member) or all girl groups. Judges will award scores for the competitors, and there may also be special merit awards. Competitions can be anywhere from a local, regional, national or international level.
