While the intense reactions and humor of the viewers and fans have made us laugh, let us not forget to congratulate all the competing schools this year for a job well done! Given the limited preparation time, participants, and restrictions due to the pandemic, all of the cheer dancers gave their best and delivered intricate and stunning routines. Truly, the UAAP Cheerdance Competition is one of the most highly anticipated events the country is always looking forward to.
The National University (NU) has placed 2nd runner up, Adamson University (AdU) has placed 1st runner up, and the Far Eastern University was crowned as this year’s cheerdance champion.
