The criteria for judging vary from year to year. In 2008, the criteria were changed to a more cheerleading-focused point system, providing a maximum score for each element of cheerleading and/or dancing. For the 2013 edition, the criteria were divided into two categories: cheerleading and dance. The cheerleading criteria were further subdivided into four elements (tumbling, stunts, tosses, and pyramids), with a maximum of 100 points for each element. The dance criteria, which also had a maximum of 100 points per judge, were subdivided into four sub-criteria: overall effectiveness, choreography, technique, and execution.

The cheerdance rivalry between UP and UST is one of the most prominent rivalries in UAAP history, resulting in a total of 15 years of joint podium appearances by both universities. This includes a decade-long streak of joint medal finishes from 1999 to 2008.

The UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe won the first three years of the competition, from 1994 to 1996.<ref name ="UST"/> During those years, UP sent its own dance troupe, the UP Filipiniana Dance Troupe. In the first edition of the contest, UP did not make it to the top three, while the UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe reigned supreme. In the 1998 season, the UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe did not compete and instead participated in the 1st Lipton Cheering Cup Competition. That year, UP established a new pep squad called the UP Varsity Pep Squad as its official delegate to the competition, replacing the UP Filipiniana Dance Troupe.

The rivalry between the two squads began in 1999 when UST returned to reclaim the title after a year of absence. However, they finished second behind the UP Pep Squad. In 2001, the UP Pep Squad matched UST's record of three consecutive wins.

In 2002, the UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe regained the title, while the UP Pep Squad finished third. For the next three years, the UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe took first place, with the UP Pep Squad as the runner-up. In 2006, the UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe achieved their eighth title with five consecutive victories, setting the highest score in the history of the competition, while the UP Pep Squad finished third that year.

The UP Pep Squad regained the title in 2007 and secured their fifth title in 2008, with UST finishing in second place. In 2009, the UP Pep Squad completed a sweep of podium finishes in the 2000s but lost their attempt at a second three-peat, while UST failed to make the top three for the first time. In 2010, UP regained the title, and UST returned to the podium, finishing third. UP achieved another three-peat by winning the 2011 and 2012 editions—years during which UST again failed to make the top three.

Neither UP nor UST won the cheerdance competition from 2013 to 2015. In 2013, UST achieved its lowest ranking, finishing in seventh place. As of 2013, UP had never placed outside the top three, while UST failed to secure a podium ranking four times in five years.

In 2014, UST successfully returned to the podium, finishing in third place, while UP placed second. In 2015, after nine years, UST defeated UP, securing second place, while UP settled for third. As of 2015, both teams had an identical number of championship titles, with eight each. Despite being dethroned, UP remained the most established team, having stayed on the podium for 20 consecutive years.

In the 2017 edition, UP returned from a one-year hiatus but failed to enter the top three, finishing in sixth place. Meanwhile, their perennial rivals, the UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe, placed second. While UST has returned to the podium since 2022, UP has not secured a podium finish since its leave of absence from the competition in 2016.

In 2013, the National U Pep Squad claimed its first-ever championship with an Arabian theme. The UAAP Cheerdance Competition was no longer dominated by the triumvirate of the FEU Cheering Squad, UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe, and UP Varsity Pep Squad, which had been champions in previous years. A year later, the National U Pep Squad successfully clinched back-to-back titles and achieved a three-peat in 2015, becoming the third team to accomplish this feat in the CDC amid some controversies. Despite these controversies, the National U Pep Squad secured a four-peat championship in the UAAP CDC in 2016 with a futuristic theme, becoming the second squad to claim a four-peat alongside the UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe. Unfortunately, in 2017, they were unable to clinch a five-peat championship or enter the top three due to low dance scores.

In 2017, the Adamson Pep Squad was crowned the champions with the theme "80's for 80." This proved that the underdogs could rise to the challenge of the former champions, with the top three of that year consisting of the UE Pep Squad as bronze medalists and the Adamson Pep Squad as gold medalists. The UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe secured the silver medal. Meanwhile, traditional powerhouses National U Pep Squad, UP Varsity Pep Squad, and FEU Cheering Squad were all absent from the top three.

In 2018, the National U Pep Squad made a comeback, securing its fifth championship in just six years. The FEU Cheering Squad, with a 70's Funk theme, finished as the first runner-up, while the 2017 gold medalists, the Adamson Pep Squad, performed a Lion King theme, marking their third consecutive year on the podium and landing in second place for 2018. The scores for the third runner-up, the UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe, were close, with only a 0.5 margin separating them from the second runner-up. Additionally, 2018 was the year the Ateneo Blue Babble Battalion was ranked seventh among all the teams, marking their first appearance in the top rankings in five years.

In 2019, the National U Pep Squad added another championship to its achievements, securing its sixth gold medal since 2013. The 2019 CDC edition is known as the year when each team stepped out of its comfort zones, executing death-defying stunts, complicated mountings and dismounts in their pyramids, and displaying highly synchronized choreography throughout their performances. Ultimately, the scores of the 2019 UAAP Cheerdance Competition reflected the highest average since 2012, despite the same rankings as the 2018 edition. The first runner-up, the FEU Cheering Squad, came close with a Michael Jackson-inspired theme, reintroducing the Moonwalk stunt previously performed by the Ateneo Blue Babble Battalion in 2009. The second runner-up, the Adamson Pep Squad, wowed the crowd with a Caribbean-Disco-inspired theme. Although the ADU Pep Squad's final pyramid (the Caribbean) was incomplete, they delivered a clean performance, earning a higher score than the cleaner routines of the fourth-place UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe and the fifth-place UE Pep Squad. The scores for the second, third, and fourth runners-up were very close, with margins of 1.06 and 0.62.

Questions were raised about the results of the 2015 Cheerdance Competition after the NU Pep Squad won despite committing multiple errors, including falls during their lifts and pyramids. This was in contrast to the runners-up, UP and UST, who executed clean performances. The UAAP community took to social media in outrage, expressing disbelief at the rankings and alleging biased judging and corruption. NU claimed that their stunts had a higher [[degree of difficulty]] compared to other teams. In response, UP filed an official complaint detailing several judging inaccuracies, but the case remained unresolved with UAAP officials. In a statement released on the UP Pep Squad’s official Facebook account, the state university announced that they were withdrawing from that year’s competition.

“Regretfully, we will not be part of this season’s UAAP Cheerdance Competition,” the statement said.

After a third-place finish in last year’s CDC, the UP Pep Squad filed an official protest questioning the contest's results. National University successfully defended its crown, while the University of Santo Tomas secured the second spot.

“From our first request for an informal meeting, to the letter of protest advised by the organizers themselves, we have exhausted all our efforts to reach a resolution. We have repeatedly sought out the delegated individuals to no avail. And after many weeks, months, and now a year of waiting, our issues and questions remain unresolved,” the statement added.

“Reared in the institution we represent, we abide with our principles of honor and integrity, and stay true to our word of foregoing with the competition, should the same organizers be hired to handle the event again.”<ref name=2015-Controversy>{{cite news |last=Alviar |first=Vaughn |date=October 10, 2015 |title=Breaking down the UAAP Cheerdance Competition |url=http://lifestyle.inquirer.net/209232/breaking-down-the-uaap-cheerdance-competition |agency=[[Philippine Daily Inquirer|Inquirer]] |access-date=January 23, 2016}}</ref><ref name=2015-Controversy2>{{cite news |last=Tordecilla |first=Jaemark |date=October 15, 2015 |title=UP's future in UAAP cheerdance hangs in the balance |url=http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/540836/sports/othersports/up-s-future-in-uaap-cheerdance-hangs-in-the-balance |agency=[[GMA Network|GMA]] |access-date=October 26, 2016}}</ref> As a response to the unresolved issues and to focus on international competitions, the UP Pep Squad decided to skip the 2016 competition.

=== Group Stunts competition ===
In 2011, the UAAP introduced the "Group Stunts" competition, hosted by Ateneo. Six teams participated in the inaugural group stunts division: UP, Ateneo, FEU, UST, NU, and Adamson.

In 2012, La Salle joined the group stunts competition for the first time, while Ateneo did not participate in the group stunts competition until 2019. UE joined the group stunts competition in 2014.

In 2014, 2017 (when UE performed that year but was not included in the competition), and 2018, only Ateneo did not participate in the competition.

In 2019, Ateneo returned to the competition after last competing in 2011, while La Salle did not participate that year.

The Group Stunts competition has been dormant since 2020; the competition has not been brought back in the succeeding seasons after the pandemic-affected UAAP Season 83.

The 2007 UAAP Cheerdance Competition (CDC) held at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City, Philippines

The UAAP Cheerdance Competition is an annual one-day event organized by the University Athletic Association of the Philippines for cheerdancing. The sequence of performances is determined by a drawing of lots prior to the competition.

Before the announcement of the winners and after all squads have performed, a recap is shown during the telecast. Only the top three teams are announced at the end of the competition. The tally sheet detailing the total number of points earned by all squads is posted on social media shortly after the announcement of the top three.

The 2015 UAAP Cheerdance Competition holds the record as the most attended collegiate sporting event in both the UAAP and across the Philippines, with a record-breaking audience of 25,388 paying attendees.[1]

Judging

[edit]

Prior to 2008, the panel of judges consisted of representatives from 8 UAAP-member schools and a representative from a credible gymnastics organization. In 2009, the UAAP replaced the panel of judges with specialists from various cheerleading, dance, and gymnastics organizations.

In 2013, a new method for composing the panel of judges was implemented by a Presiding Judge. A single judge was assigned to evaluate each element in the cheerleading criteria. For the dance criteria, either two or five judges were tasked with assessing this particular category.

The criteria for judging vary from year to year. In 2008, the criteria were changed to a more cheerleading-focused point system, providing a maximum score for each element of cheerleading and/or dancing. For the 2013 edition, the criteria were divided into two categories: cheerleading and dance. The cheerleading criteria were further subdivided into four elements (tumbling, stunts, tosses, and pyramids), with a maximum of 100 points for each element. The dance criteria, which also had a maximum of 100 points per judge, were subdivided into four sub-criteria: overall effectiveness, choreography, technique, and execution.

  • ^b – In 1998, UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe did not join the competition because of injured members.[26]
  • ^c – De La Salle University was suspended from the league in 2006.

In the case of NU and UST, NU was declared as the 2nd runner up as 3 out of 5 judges voted for NU as the 3rd placer while 3 out of 5 judges voted for UST as the 4th placer despite the higher score of UST (85.56) than NU (85.16)
  • ^e – Merit-based scoring was used in the criteria: 400 points for cheerleading elements and 400 points for dance elements; for a total score of 800. Scores displayed here are its percentage equivalent (e.g. Actual Score divided by 800 then multiplied to 100).
  • ^f – University of the Philippines skipped UAAP Season 79 Cheerdance Competition
  • ^g – The Far Eastern University and the National University finished the competition tied in the fourth place.

  • ^i – UAAP Season 84 was scheduled to begin in 2021, but, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, UAAP's board of trustees decided to begin the season in March 2022. The UAAP Cheerdance Competition was held on May 22, 2022
