The NCAA Cheerleading Competition previously known as NCAA Cheerdance Competition is an annual one-day event of the National Collegiate Athletic Association for cheerleading. However, it does not count in the tabulation to determine the NCAA Overall Champion.

It was sponsored by Nestlé in 2004 and 2005 and was known as the NCAA Nestlé Non-Stop Cheerdance Competition. In 2007, the competition was sponsored by Samsung and was called as Samsung NCAA Cheerdance Competition. The event was also sanctioned by Cheerleading Philippines Federation (CP) and thus adopted the official scoring criteria used in international cheerleading. The name of the competition was changed in 2008. The criteria for the 2009 Samsung NCAA Cheerleading Competition was patterned with the National Cheerleading Championship or NCC. The judges also came from the said competition. This gives NCAA a special privilege where NCC granted slots for the 2010 NCC Finals for the top three winners. In the 87th season of the NCAA, cheerleading has been upgraded to a regular sport which means it will contribute points in the overall championship race.^[1]
