Performance Order & General Schedule:

*The performance order and general schedules posted are tentative.* As changes are made, the schedule will be updated and all coaches will receive an email notifying them that the schedule has been updated.
*The Final Schedule will be available 1-2 days before the event and can be viewed by clicking the schedule buttons below.*
Although all Canadian Cheer events are known for being run precisely on time, unforeseen circumstances sometimes cause times to shift slightly. We will always attempt to ensure that this does not affect any teams negatively.
2023 Division Splits are created with the following considerations:
- Max # of stunt groups as the score sheet allots 60% of the score to building.
- Consideration for reasonably competitive divisions (ie the desire to not have a division of 1 or 2 teams when possible).
- Often there will be many teams of the exact size, hence why there is a slight variation of where the division split happens in each age group.
Division Splits are based on registration data as of March 1st.
- Divisions sub-splits will not be changed due to registration data error, athlete injury or sickness etc.
