How These Rankings Work
FullOut ranks New Mexico cheer gyms using real competition results, not reputation or reviews. A banner is a first-place finish in a finals round. A podium is a top-three finish. Every banner and podium earned by a gym's teams counts toward its ranking: banners order the list, and podiums break ties.
These rankings cover All Star Cheer divisions (Levels 1 through 7) during the 2025-26 season, which runs July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026. Results come from publicly available scoresheets and live results in FullOut's competition database, which tracks thousands of events across the country.
A gym's ranking reflects how often its teams won, not how big the program is. Team counts and levels are shown for context.
