At Naperville Elite All-Star Cheer, we understand that everyone must start somewhere. That's why our NEA coaches will place your child on a team that best fits their current age/skill level and then work closely with your child to identify and help them achieve the personal goals they desire.
We hope that all cheerleaders will learn the confidence, skills, teamwork, discipline, sportsmanship, positive attitude, compromises, strong work ethic, and PRIDE it takes to be an NEA cheerleader. All our coaches believe in these life lessons and teach them continuously! After reviewing our program and meeting our coaching staff, you will find that our staff is completely committed and passionate about NEA Cheer. We care about each athlete and make every effort to instill CHAMPIONSHIP qualities in each girl!
So, why NEA CHEER?:
- We compete once per month. Unlike other gyms, we realize that time with each child's sport is important. We also realize that you have other important life commitments that are just as important as cheer. Lastly, we realize the importance of being able to have balance and being able to have time to be a part of other important life events.
- Our official season runs August through March. ENJOY your summer because all practices during that time are VOLUNTARY!
- All of our coaches are USASF certified. Safety is 1st! Your child will always be in the hands of a Head Coach that has been trained and certified to teach the skills necessary to compete at an ALLSTAR level.
- Our competitions are LOCAL. Unlike other gyms, who wants to live out of a suitcase? How do you balance work with cheer? How do you balance sibling events with cheer? If these are concerns of yours, like many others just like you, then LOOK NO MORE!
- Yes, additional training outside of the gym is a plus. However, unlike other gyms, TUMBLING IS INCLUDED as part of practice. We are very proud of the partnership that we share with Naperville Gymnastics Club. Your cheerleader will learn top notch tumbling techniques and skills that are required to help them tumble successfully by CERTIFIED TUMBLING INSTRUCTORS.
- Favoritism & Politics have No Place at NEA. TOGETHER we can achieve more!
- Team Support across all teams. Ongoing team buildings events that bring all 3 teams together. The support from both our families and our cheerleaders is of utmost importance to us. Our cheerleaders are taught to show their support for the entire program not just their team.
- 1 mandatory fundraising for the year. We realize that there are several of you that are not for 70 fundraising events throughout the year. Therefore, we make additional fundraising VOLUNTARY.
- 1 BIG NATIONALS per year at the end of the season. It's our way of bringing all 3 teams together to HAVE FUN, COMPETE, and end the year with a BANG!
- No worries about Spring Break or the Holiday Break! We understand that the holidays are important to both your family and you. Therefore, there are no scheduled practices or competitions during those very important times.
