‘STANGS TAKE SUMMIT!

Orlando, Florida - May 9 - 11, 2025


Hotel Information

Waldorf Astoria Orlando & Signia by Hilton Orlando

14100 Bonnet Creek Resort Lane, Orlando, FL 32821, US

We are so excited to stay at a NEW hotel property for Mustang, the Waldorf/Signia at Bonnet Creek! After feedback from our families on past hotel experiences, research, and site visits, we have decided to stay at this event property that is comparably priced to our prior hotel, closer to the venue, and with fewer (if any) cheer teams staying here, more private for our program. To give you a couple of options, we have a larger room block at the Waldorf and a smaller room block at the Signia, which is connected to the Waldorf by a short walk and is the conference side of the property (closest to the water park and lazy river!).

Rounds & Advancements

  • Prelims (Renegades): Teams who receive a Wildcard bid will compete in Prelims. The top 5 scoring teams in each division will automatically advance to the Finals. In divisions with less than 5 teams, all will advance to Finals.

  • Semi-Finals (Chargers and Stallions): Teams who receive an At Large, Partial-Paid or Paid Bid will compete in Semi-Finals. The number of teams advancing to Finals from Semi-Finals will be based on 50% of the division competing on the day of competition but will be no fewer than 5 teams and no more than 10 teams.

  • Finals: Teams who advance from Prelims and Semi-Finals will compete in the Finals. Regardless of placement, ties will not be broken at The D2 Summit, nor will ties impact the number of teams advancing in each round of competition.

  • Exception: if there is a tie for the final team advancing, both teams will advance.

  • For divisions with 31-40 teams, 2 additional teams will advance. For 41-50 teams, 4 additional teams advance, for 51-60 teams, 6 teams will advance. For 61-70, 8 teams will advance. Advancements will be dependent on teams competing on the day of competition.
