Rules & levels knowledge base

The rule-setting federations behind the level badges across this site, with direct links to each body’s current season documents. Skill classifications on CheerLibrary always come from a federation’s active season; upcoming seasons appear here as soon as they’re staged.

Where do scoring rubrics fit?

Event producers — NCA, UCA, Cheersport, JAMZ and 25+ others under Varsity’s shared United Scoring System — publish scoring rubrics: how difficulty and execution are scored within a level. They don’t define which skills are legal at which level; that’s the federations above. ICU classifies national-team divisions (Intermediate → Premier) rather than individual skills, so it carries no per-skill classifications here.

Level badges on skill pages and the stunt graph are indicative and should be checked against the linked documents — always train under a qualified coach.
