Welcome to the Pride

Thank you for your interest in the New Lebanon Leopards for the 2026–2027 competitive season! We are more than just a cheerleading squad; we are a 501(c)(3) non-profit youth ministry dedicated to building character, confidence, and athletic excellence in a Christian environment. To ensure our program is the right fit for your family’s schedule and your athlete’s goals, our onboarding process begins with a "Connection First" approach. Before formal registration, we invite all new families to experience our culture firsthand through one of our Interest Day Camps. This allows our coaches to meet your athlete and gives you a chance to see our Matthew 18 conflict resolution model and "Total Team" philosophy in action.

When and where are practices held?

Our practices are held at New Lebanon Church, Reidsville NC on Mondays 4:30-7 and Thursdays 4:30-6:30. Regular attendance is vital for stunt safety. Please note that practices during competition weeks are mandatory, including a short pre-travel practice on Fridays before we head to events.

What makes NLCC different from other gyms?

Yes! We are a competitive program. We travel to several events in the region (such as Fayetteville, Raleigh, and Lynchburg). For competitions further than 45 minutes away, we have a Team Hotel Policy where athletes stay together to promote team unity and ensure everyone is rested and on time for early morning warm-ups.

Can I unsubscribe later?

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit and a Christian-based ministry. We focus on building "Total Team" character. We follow the Matthew 18 model for conflict resolution and prioritize the safety and spiritual growth of our athletes alongside their physical skills
