Alabama Cheer Schedule At UCA College Nationals 2025

Share This Post

The University of Alabama cheerleading team is a top-tier squad, but the group continues to experience heartbreak on the national stage, especially in coed competition. 

The 2025 UCA/UDA College Cheerleading & Dance Team National Championship will offer the Crimson Tide another opportunity to break free from this all-too-familiar fate.

The event will take place Jan. 17-19 at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Florida.

This competition is the culmination of a year of hard work and is the most prestigious event on the collegiate cheer and dance schedule. 

The Alabama cheer program includes two teams – All Girl and Coed – and while each has different assignments and responsibilities for on-campus activities and sports teams, both groups compete annually at the UCA College Nationals.

Last year, the Alabama spirit teams settled for a pair of runner-up finishes in Orlando, coming up just short in the Division IA All Girl competition and the Division IA Coed event. The latter marked the team’s fourth coed runner-up finish in the last eight years (2017, 2020, 2022).

It hasn’t been all close calls and disappointment for the Crimson Tide, however.

Alabama has won three Division IA All Girl national championships (2015, 2020, 2022) and three coed titles (1984, 2011, 2015).

Here’s when the Alabama cheerleading team will compete at UCA College Nationals 2025:
