Hear what our Staff are saying about UCA!

Brittany Baird—2nd year UCA Instructor says...
“Everything UCA represents is right down my alley! The skill of the instructors teaching camps is amazing indeed, but what is even more incredible is the passion that each staffer has for cheerleading! Their energy is truly contagious and with their continuous guidance and encouragement, it is amazing to see the progress that each squad makes during camp. Whether it be a team of new cheerleaders or a reigning national championship team, UCA camps are the foundation of success for squads of all age and experience levels. What better way to start the season than a productive UCA camp? Memories from the summer bring each squad closer together, and the high-energy vibe from camp is something that each squad can carry with them throughout the season!”

Jenna Smith—4th year UCA Instructor says...
"Being a UCA instructor and a UCA camper both have had a huge impact on my life!! Being a camper when in high school and growing such a strong love and respect for cheerleading was awesome, but now having the pleasure to gain that respect from campers is even better!! Coming to UCA camp is more than learning cheers dances and sidelines! It is preparing yourself for game day situations and having fun while doing so!!! So put on a smile, grab the poms, and come to UCAcheer camp in 2010!!!"

LeAnne Francis—5th year UCA Instructor says...
“Being apart of the Universal Cheerleaders Association was a dream of mine from the time I began cheerleading and attending UCA Summer Camps as a camper. I've met some of my best friends, and even my roommate through attending UCA camps and being a UCA instructor! Not only do we have as staff have a blast at camp, but we do EVERYTHING we can to make sure the UCA camp experience is one in a million for everyone!! Coaches and participants are our #1 priority, and we want everyone to take home a BIG piece of UCA!”
