Stunt is the interscholastic sport discipline of Cheer / Competitive Cheer that is exclusively focused on competition in a head-to-head, four quarter format. It  is the only Cheer discipline designed to meet the US Department of Education Office for Civil Rights (OCR) legal sport requirements of Title IX for schools in the U.S. The National governing Body for Stunt is USA Cheer.

Stunt is not currently an official sport of the NCAA but it has received a recommendation from the Committee on Women’s Athletics to join the NCAA Emerging Sports for Women Program. Approval of Stunt as an NCAA emerging sport for all three divisions will be put to a member vote at the January 2023 NCAA convention.
