2023 Cheerleaders That Rock Challenge

The Heat Is On in the 2023 FNB Varsity Cup with thousands of students across South Africa cheering on their teams participating in the country’s premier university rugby competition.

The excitement is in overdrive as 2023 sees the first-ever Cheerleaders That Rock Challenge, taking fan engagement to the next level.

The competition is open to all 16 Varsity Cup and Varsity Shield universities, with all squads participating in a single competition.

Each squad will be required to perform at their home games throughout the season. For official entry into the competition, each squad needs to record their best performance and submit it to the judges adjudicating the Cheerleaders That Rock by 4 April 2023.

Official judging will be conducted by the South Africa Majorettes and Cheerleading Association and Gymnastics South Africa. Both FNB Varsity Cup and FNB Varsity Shield Fans will also get an opportunity to say who they think is the best Cheerleading squad. Details of the public voting will be announced at a later stage.

For now, get in on the action, snap a pic of your favourite cheerleading squad at any Varsity Cup match and share it on social media. Remember to tag Varsity Cup and include #CheerleadersThatRock
