By this time Anitco was attending Penn State and would come home on weekends to assist her mother with the team. In 1992, the pair won their first Pop Warner National Championship. The transition from Pop Warner to all stars was not a big leap for Pascale and Antico. After the national win and with the Pop Warner season over, a small group of their students and parents persuaded them to start a competition squad, and the World Cup All Stars were born.[2]
World Cup All Stars officially began in 1975. The first team formed was the Shooting Stars.

Also in 2008, World Cup's Large Senior Limited Coed Team (Odyssey) received 3rd place at the 2008 Cheerleading Worlds.[3] One of their other well known teams Twinkles. They are a youth level 5 team composed of girls ages 9-11 who compete many of the same advanced stunt and tumble skills as the teams composed of much older athletes.
