The Cheerleading Worlds 2022 marked the return to normalcy. The pandemic forced USASF and IASF to cancel The Cheerleading Worlds 2020, and the in-person Cheerleading Worlds 2021 was modified for small crowds and no international presence. IASF-division teams had the opportunity to compete at the IASF Virtual Cheerealding Worlds in October 2021. The Cheerleading Worlds 2022 brought the world back to a single stage, and it was one for the books.
CheerTheory’s annual gym ranking includes all medalists from The Cheerleading Worlds 2022 and the IASF Virtual Cheerleading Worlds 2021. Twenty-nine divisions competed at The Cheerleading Worlds 2022 and fifteen at the IASF Virtual Cheerleading Worlds. In total, we added 124 medalists to our ranking.
To calculate CheerTheory’s annual weighted ranking, we award five points for first place, three points for second place, and one for third place. Then, we reverse rank each program, beginning with the highest point ranking. See which teams and programs have won the most Cheerleading Worlds titles in the table below.
