CheerLeadership Camp is designed for public and private school cheer squads of all sizes. Regardless of size, our two staff work together to make the camp experience valuable, exciting and rewarding.
We are proud to partner with NCA: SPIRIT IS FOREVER and it all started at CheerLeadership NCA Summer Camp!
For 80+ years, you have helped create NCA’s foundations of spirit, tradition, and excellence. From the first cheerleading camp to the first spirit stick, you have helped NCA cultivate a culture of positivity and cheer. Cheerleaders are an invaluable part of our community. Your season starts at CheerLeadership Summer Camp, where it all began and spirit is forever!
