Cheerleaders "Superbowl"

A cheerleader would consider their competitions as their "Superbowl". Once it comes down to the last two teams they do not get four different 15 minute quarters to show the judges what they got. Their team has about two and a half minutes to either make it or break it and one little mistake can ruin it all. The refs in football sort of remind me of the judges in cheer leading. They have to make sure no rules were broken and see what team has done better. Another thing that the football Superbowl and cheerleaders competition have in common is the way they are put into teams, by age and difficulty level. The difficulty levels go from 1-6, 6 being the hardest. Although there are cheerleaders at the Superbowl, those are the NFL cheer leaders and they are non-competitive. The biggest competition that competitive cheerleaders would call their "Superbowl" would be the UCA Nationals. They are split up into three divisions by age and difficulty. UCA stands for Universal Cheer Associations, it's the biggest competition in the nation. Its held in Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida and is televised on ESPN.
