ALL STAR CHEER

For over 30 years, our program has been built on a foundation of hard work, integrity, growth, and commitment. We believe cheerleading is more than stunts and routines, it’s about building confidence, resilience, leadership, and lifelong friendships. At South Jersey Storm, we offer opportunities for every athlete, from first-time beginners stepping onto the mat, to elite competitors performing on the national stage. Each program level is intentionally designed to meet athletes where they are and help them grow to their highest potential.

Our culture is rooted in:

Accountability

Commitment

Coachability

Respect

Work Ethic

We are proud to provide a structured, supportive environment where athletes are challenged, celebrated, and developed, both on and off the floor.

Whether you are brand new to all-star cheer or continuing your journey with us, we are honored you’re here.

Rookie Program

Our Rookie Program is a full year program designed as the first competitive stepping stone toward our Prep and Elite teams. This program introduces athletes to the structure, discipline, and excitement of competitive cheer—without the intensity or time commitment of higher level teams.

Athletes focus on mastering fundamentals in tumbling, jumps, stunting, motions, and performance quality while building confidence and strong team habits. With a lighter practice schedule and limited local competitions, Novice provides the perfect balance of challenge and support. It’s where athletes grow their skills, learn team culture, and prepare for the transition into Prep and, eventually, Elite.

Select Program

Our Prep Program is the perfect bridge between recreational cheer and our Elite teams. Designed for athletes who are ready for more structure and commitment but not quite the intensity of Elite. This full year program focuses on skill progression, confidence building, and competitive experience in a supportive environment.

Athletes train multiple times per week, refining tumbling, jumps, stunting, and performance quality while learning the expectations of our SJS culture. Prep teams compete at select local and regional events, giving athletes the opportunity to grow, gain experience, and prepare for the next step toward Elite.

Elite Program

Athletes selected for an Elite team will compete at the highest levels of competition. Elite athletes are expected to uphold exceptional standards in attendance, work ethic, accountability, and commitment to additional training.

This program follows an intensive practice schedule with advanced skill development to ensure team success. Athletes must adhere to strict expectations and demonstrate full dedication to their teammates and coaches. Additional practices may be scheduled as needed.

Families should be prepared for a substantial financial commitment, which may include out-of-state travel and expenses beyond those outlined in the standard payment plan.

School Year Cheer

Our School-Year Program is the perfect option for athletes seeking a competitive cheer experience without the intensity of a full-year commitment. Designed for beginner to intermediate-level athletes, this program runs during the school year only—no summer training required—making it a flexible alternative to our traditional full-year teams.

Athletes train weekly to refine tumbling, stunting, jumps, and performance skills while building confidence and strong team fundamentals. Teams compete at select local events, providing valuable competitive experience in a balanced, supportive environment. This program is ideal for athletes who want to grow, stay competitive, and maintain flexibility in their schedule.

Team Placement: October 11th & October 18th

SHOW TEAMS

Our Show Team Program is designed for beginner cheerleaders ages 3- 10 who are ready to explore the exciting world of cheer in a fun, low-pressure environment. This program offers two separate sessions each year—one in September and one beginning in January—making it easy for families to join at a time that works best for them.

Athletes attend a weekly practice where they learn cheer fundamentals including motions, basic tumbling, jumps, beginner stunts, and performance skills. Each session concludes with a special performance for family and friends, giving athletes the opportunity to shine, build confidence, and celebrate their progress.

Our Show Team program is the perfect first step for young athletes looking to fall in love with cheer.
