27 Worlds Level Teams Hit Zero On Day 1 Of NCA

This weekend, 10 outstanding all-star cheer teams made their mark by capturing the title of Triple Crown Champions. Earning this recognition requires teams to claim first place in their division at three premier national events: CHEERSPORT Nationals, the NCA All-Star National Championship, and the UCA All Star National Championship. Across each of these highly competitive stages, these teams proved their excellence with powerful performances, sharp execution, and consistency. Winning once at this level is an accomplishment — doing it three times across the season speaks to the talent of each program! Congratulations to the following teams on earning the title of 2026 Triple Crown Champions:

The race for the 2026 West Coast Cup was back on this season for season 3 for cheer teams, plus season 2 of the West Coast Cup race for dance teams! The West Coast Cup is a prestigious honor following all star cheer & dance teams' journey at select West Coast events. To earn the honor of being named a West Coast Cup champion, cheer teams must be the highest scoring D1 or D2  team in their division at these three events: The American Grand - Grand Nationals in Las Vegas, NV, Spirit Sports Grand Nationals in Palm Springs, CA, and the USA All Star Cheer Super Nationals in Anaheim, CA. On the dance side, teams must earn first place at the GSSA Grand Nationals in Bakersfield, CA, Spirit Sports Grand Nationals in Palm Springs, CA, and the USA All Star Dance Super Nationals in Anaheim, CA.

In 2026, the UCA & UDA All Star National Championship brings athletes and cheer and dance teams of all ages and skill levels back to Orlando, Florida, to the famed ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.

The best of the west head to the Anaheim Convention Center for the USA All Star Cheer Super Nationals on March 13-15.
