Current high school girls are invited to participate as Team Captains for the 2025-2026 season of the Purple Reign Cheerleading/Stomp & Shake Team. The Captains will help us define and strengthen our high school program, while mentoring our middle school program. You will be involved in high visibility events such as parades, college games, cheer exhibitions, light cheer/dance competitions, and NBA G-League games.
Your service begins with virtual practices on Thursdays from 6pm to 7:30pm in July/August (starting July 17th). Here, you will learn HBCU style "stomp & shake" cheerleading.
Starting in September, you will practice on Saturdays for a three-hour window between 12pm and 5pm (to be finalized over the summer - but it's usually 1pm to 4pm). Our current practice location is Downtown Newark. A uniform will be provided for your use throughout the season.
We will track every hour of your service (which includes virtual/in-person practices, events, community service activities and workshops). At the end of your season in June 2026, we will provide you with a reference letter.
While the opportunity is open to girls in high school, it is ideal for freshmen and sophomores given the busy schedule of the team. The team is also open to NYC residents who are willing to make the commute to Newark starting in September.
No cheer experience is required. No phone calls please.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of young people by providing unique artistic and athletic experiences and performances, and to assist them in achieving the highest standards of professionalism through the development of discipline, skill, confidence, cooperation, leadership, responsibility and character.
Description
Our vision is to promote virtue, equity, unity, justice, faith, charity and a sense of common purpose and brotherhood among all people with an emphasis on the development and advancement of young people through education, athletics, service and the arts.
SoulPhamm was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in the state of New Jersey on June 25, 2021 and is the "birth-child" of Coach Luis ("Lou") and Dr. Leisa Herrera ("Mz. Doc"). The organization exists to provide training to young people in a variety of sports and performing arts and unique opportunities to display those talents through competition and performance. By integrating mentoring, life skills, opportunities for community service and academic enrichment to the athletic/artistic program, we help make our scholar-athletes as well-rounded as possible, capable of meeting and overcoming any challenges they are faced with. Although Coach Lou passed away suddenly in January 2021, the official launch of SoulPhamm was held on June 26, 2021, which coincided with his birthday weekend. SoulPhamm will recognize its own founding, as well as the achievements of our young people every year on the fourth Saturday of June, as a tribute to the life and legacy of Coach Lou.
