As one of the largest events on the calendar, the UCA National High School Cheerleading Championship (NHSCC) is a can't-miss spectacle. Now, the fun is split into two weekends and it's all under a new umbrella—the National School Spirit Championships!

The event joins the UDA National Dance Team Championship and all new National School Band Championship, both of which are also divided into two divisions and over the first two weekends of February.

In order to qualify for the national championship, teams must have earned a bid at a 2025 or 2026 qualifying UCA Regional event.
