Story Highlights

This weekend is the biggest three days on the college cheer and dance calendar and FloSports is set to deliver one of the sport's most robust presentations yet.

The streamer will deliver a presentation of the 2025 UCA & UDA College Cheerleading and Dance Team National Championships that will include live commentary, instant replay, and enhanced graphics not previously seen on coverage of this event. The three-day competition which kicks off Friday and runs through Sunday streams exclusively on FloSports' Varsity TV.

FloSports will stream live coverage of the 2025 UCA & UDA College Cheerleading & Dance Team National Championship on Varsity TV from Jan. 17-19.

FloSports has partnered with Post Media Group to handle the production of the event from the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at The Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando. With multiple competitions happening in halls throughout the venue, FloSports will make available on VarsityTV the ability to stream individual halls or a full main production of the entire competition.

This is a unique event because at any given time there are multiple performances happening simultaneously in multiple halls of the venue, says Joe Baker, FloSports' VP of Production. Rather than one individual game or multiple games in a row at a tournament, this is three days of hundreds of performances with many hundreds of athletes in succession spanning multiple divisions and disciplines.

Inside FloSports' remote production control at its Austin headquarters.

Post Media Group will produce the coverage of each hall as well as program the in-venue videoboard shows and send clean feeds to FloSports' headquarters in Austin, Texas where the rest of the show will be produced remotely. There, coordinating producer Lucas Haskins, director Don Cardona, graphics producer Greg Sandercox, a TD, audio engineer, replay operator, and subject matter experts in the cheer/dance verticals Megan Motley, Hannah Roberts, and Monica Coats will piece together the final production. Also there to support is engineer Byron Rape.

This year we are taking our coverage to another level by adding an additional enhanced coverage stream on top of the individual hall streams for the event, says Baker, who joined FloSports in 2022 after nearly three decades with ESPN. The enhanced coverage stream features live commentary during performances from cheer and dance experts, instant replay following performances with breakdowns of the routines, enhanced graphic production, storytelling content pieces on athletes and teams, and post-performance interviews with athletes. It's going to be the ultimate viewing experience for cheer and dance fans.

FloSports does have producer Dan Sweeny on site in Orlando to oversee the transmission of the feeds back to Austin and to manage four teams of on-air announcers. Additionally, a content team is there shooting and editing content in real time.
