Cali SMOED is back! Now it’s four years later, after leaving the Small Co-ed Division and Eddie Rios has a lot to prove! Does his squad still have what it takes to be World Champion Cheerleaders?
It takes a lot of skill to be on a team like Cali SMOED. You have to be able to jump, stunt and TUMBLE with the best of the best. But what happens when life gets in the way and you fall behind?
Cali SMOED’S one boy, Landon is off to a trip in NYC. So, the squad is going all girl for the week! They need to find four more boys for the team ASAP or will have to go to a different division! Does Eddie still have the magic to pull the right boys to his team?
SMOED has been struggling to find 5 boys to be on the squad. It’s a difficult task because they not only have to be amazing athletes but have fantastic attitudes and be willing to relocate to California. Eddie works his magic to bring in new boys to the team but will they be the right fit and able to handle what it takes to be a boy on Cali SMOED!?
Tyler and Briley are two new athletes to Smoed. They have been working very hard to secure their positions but Briley is dealing with a mental block that affects her ability to tumble. Tyler is having difficulty with his tumbling and Eddie has big expectations for him since he’s a SMOED boy. Eddie decides it’s time to make cuts to the team and Briley and Tyler are both on The Chopping Block. Will they make the team? Watch and see in this week’s episode!
After making the first round of cuts, SMOED Head Coach, Eddie Rios, focuses on getting his squad ready for Cheer Competition Season. Still struggling with tumbling, Eddie decides to bring in a Tumbling Specialist, Coach Megan Ballard, to help get the team back to basics. As the kids condition and work on skills relentlessly, Eddie studies the new routine looking for timing, spacing, and poor performance flaws.
Briley has been struggling with her mental block when tumbling. Unfortunately Coach Eddie had to make the tough decision to make her an alternate so there is now a flying position open on the squad. To temporarily solve the problem, Coach Eddie pulls up Shaye, a flyer from Assassins, a Level 4 team in the gym. But will Shaye have what it takes to physically and mentally handle the pressure of being a flyer on Cali SMOED?
Being a World Champion isn't just about physical strength—it’s about mental toughness, heart, and relentless determination. CALI SMOED’s resilience is pushed to the limit during this intense practice. For every dropped stunt, they’re hitting the pavement, racking up miles—8 and counting! Watch as the team gives it their all to conquer the challenges and prove what it takes to rise to the top. It’s a journey of blood, sweat, and cheer!
alternate for weeks. However, when a different position opens up that requires her to Main Base she steps-in and steps-up to the challenge! Tyler is now also an alternate with a minor injury, so Eddie is gambling on a new boy from the Cali All Stars, Las Vegas location. And Zoe, unfortunately had a rough practice that sent her to the Emergency Room. Now she is extremely worried about the Cali Showcase coming up in a month and what this could mean for her, while a new girl eyes up her spot on the mat!
Creating the perfect cheer squad takes time, lots of hard work and trying various spots for athletes to see where they really shine. Mariah and Callista get hurt so Eddie once again has to move athletes around to make the routine work. It requires moving puzzle pieces which once again forces Eddie to make some tough decisions regarding who makes the team.

The moment of truth is here! SMOED takes the mat one last time at the Cali Showcase, determined to step it up after their first performance. The team has shaken off the nerves, regrouped, and is ready to prove just how strong they are. With everything on the line, can they deliver the sharp, confident performance they’ve been training for all season?

Will they rise to the occasion and hit the routine they’ve been chasing? One thing’s for sure—this team never stops fighting. ????????
After an intense showcase, Cali SMOED hit the competition floor for the first time this season at GSSA in Sacramento, CA—and they did not disappoint! SMOED delivered a powerhouse performance, securing the Grand Prize and a fully paid bid to the World Championship! But was this victory just the beginning, or was it a stroke of luck? With Palm Springs up next, SMOED is set to face off against familiar rivals and fierce new challengers. Can they keep the momentum going and strike gold once again in the Cali desert? Stay tuned to find out! ????????
SMOED is back, fully healthy, and stepping onto the Palm Springs stage with something to prove! After years away from the division, they’re facing off against solid competition for the second time this season. The energy is high, the stakes are real, and every stunt, tumbling pass, and routine matters. With their history in Palm Springs always unpredictable, will they rise to the occasion or get caught in the curse? One thing’s for sure—this squad is here to fight for their spot at the top.
As Palm Springs looms just days away, SMOED faces a whirlwind of challenges—both physical and psychological. Eddie grapples with familiar and unexpected obstacles, while Lola and Marielle battle illness at a critical moment. Meanwhile, whispers of a "SMOED Curse" stir up team superstition—bad luck or just bad timing? With one of their final practices before a heavy-hitter showdown, the team must shake off distractions, push through adversity, and dial in their routine. Is it all in their heads, or is something really in the air?
It’s the final day of competition in Palm Springs, and tensions are high. Cali Black Ops is holding onto first place—but can they finish strong? Get an inside look at Coach Neda’s leadership and meet the athletes behind Black Ops' powerful run. Meanwhile, over on SMOED, a partner stunt fall from Niko and Avery on Day 1 dropped them into third place. Now, with redemption on the line, can SMOED rally back and deliver a first-place routine under pressure? The stakes couldn’t be higher.
After Palm Springs, the pressure is on. With upgraded tumbling, front-loaded stunts, and refined details designed to wow the judges, SMOED is pushing their routine to the next level. But Eddie drops a bomb—two new athletes are joining the team. Are these changes a boost… or a sign that not everyone is keeping up? The roster is shifting, tensions are rising, and the countdown to the next competition is ticking. Can the team hold it together, or is it time for fresh energy to step in?
With Jamz All Star Nationals in Las Vegas just 3 days away, SMOED is running nothing but FULL OUT after FULL OUT. After last week’s roster shake-up, Dylan stops by practice—just to warm up and observe—but the second he hits the floor, the energy shifts. The guys size him up, and suddenly, stunts are sharper, tumbling is cleaner, and egos are on display. Even Jeremiah throws a new tumble pass to get Coach Eddie’s attention. Eddie sees it all—but is anyone actually changing his mind this close to comp? And just when you think the team’s locked… talk of a new girl is still lingering. The countdown is on. The fire’s rising. And one thing’s for sure: This isn’t just practice—it’s a proving ground.
The SMOED squad lands at the Orleans Convention Center in Las Vegas for Jamz Nationals—and the pressure just got real. For the first time this season, they’ll be judged on the Worlds Score Sheet: more points on the table, but stricter deductions. As the team preps outside, Eddie jumps straight into game mode. Shaye’s stunt group struggles to lock in, and there’s no room for error with this kind of scoring. Meanwhile, Black Ops sends some good luck before their own moment in the spotlight. Day 1 is about to blast off—can SMOED rise to the challenge under Vegas lights?
It’s go time. The team is called to the floor as Eddie delivers a no-frills reminder: believe in yourself, and trust each other. The crowd's electric, the music hits—and all eyes are on SMOED. The routine is sharp, the energy’s high… but a couple of late-moment mistakes raise the question: how costly will they be under the strict Worlds Score Sheet? After the performance, Eddie doesn't lecture—he locks in with the team outside, using every second to reset and regroup for Day 2.
