OMAHA, NE, UNITED STATES, July 25, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Cheer Athletics Omaha Sends First Competitive Team to AAU Junior Olympic Games
Believed to be Nebraska’s first all star cheer team to reach the national event, the Courage CAts will be honored at a public send-off in Omaha on July 27.
Cheer Athletics Omaha will send its first competitive team to the AAU Junior Olympic Games, one of the largest youth multi-sport events in the United States. The team, known as the Courage CAts, will be recognized at a public send-off open to the community on Monday, July 27 at 6:00 p.m. at the gym’s Omaha facility.
The team is believed to be the first all-star cheer program from Nebraska to reach the AAU Junior Olympic Games, a distinction the organization says reflects a season of sustained progress by its athletes and coaching staff.
“Just 14 months ago, this team began its journey, and now they will make history as the first cheer team from Nebraska to compete on this stage,” said Tiffani Wolf, co-owner of Cheer Athletics Omaha. “Their work ethic, heart, determination, and belief in one another have earned them this opportunity. This isn’t just a milestone for Cheer Athletics Omaha — it’s a milestone for Nebraska cheer. These athletes are proving that big dreams are possible with commitment and courage, and I know they’ll represent our program, our community, and our state with pride.”
A First for the Omaha Program
The AAU Junior Olympic Games bring together youth athletes from across the country to compete on a national stage across a range of sports. For Cheer Athletics Omaha, the appearance marks the program’s first national-level competitive team since opening, and a milestone for all-star cheerleading in the Omaha metro.
