INDIANAPOLIS, IN – One of cheerleading’s last elite hold-outs, The MAJORS, is held in Indianapolis, IN each January.  Due to the on-going challenges of COVID-19 the event was announced to be held virtually in 2021.  A Virtual MAJORS will mark Varsity All Star’s first attempt at a ‘real-time’ virtual competition, previously this season the company has held virtual events that have consisted of competitors submitting a recording to the video platform (with no limit to the number of attempts) within a fixed week long period.

Known Timeline of Events:

Wednesday, January 13

  • Teams will submit a ‘Virtual Practice Round’ video not exceeding 10 minutes, where the teams will perform every section of their routine.  When The MAJORS event is held live teams participate in this type of round throughout the morning and afternoon preceding the night-time competition.
  • The practice round is used to count skills, compare difficulties, and generates a pre-event ranking based on the difficulty of the planned routine.  During the evening performance, unless skills are watered down or changed the difficulty score is already adjudicated and the event is scored for execution to yield winners.

Friday, January 15

An official schedule has not been made public yet, however, we expect the timeline of events to be:

  • 6:00 PM ET (Event Start Time)
  • 9:00 PM ET (Teams Conclude Performances)
  • est. 9:15 PM ET – 9:30 PM ET (Awards Reveal)

The virtual format of the championship, undoubtedly, will require extreme coordination and planning as teams will broadcast in-real-time from 8 different locations.

Notable Mentions.

Unfortunately, even the promise of a Virtual Competition format for The MAJORS 2021 was not enough to be able to alleviate the crushing restrictions of some regions.  Some of the invited teams, as deserving as they are to be included in The MAJORS event, will be unable to participate in the competition component of the event due to local mandates in place due to the on-going COVID-19 health crisis.
