This is our first year on the team and it has been incredible the commitment from not only the cheerleaders but also the coaches has been above and beyond. I am so proud of all the hard work that they have done to get to Nationals ( WOW Factor) and Quest. The Minnesota Jets are unlike any other team sport out there.
I absolutely love the Minnesota jets I’ve been on the team for almost 2 and a half years now. It an amazing team and more importantly family. All the coaches Mae sure you have what you need, have fun and prioritize mental health. Every Minnesota Jets cheerleader looks out for one another and treats everyone with respect and love. The head coach Derek Nelson has been a very big help in my life and care strongly about every team and every cheerleader and has very good sportsmanship. Absolutely love this team and everyone that’s part of it. Jets fly high!
The Minnesota Jets have done a lot to support our community and our youth. Having volunteered with the cheerleaders of the Minnesota Jets, I have learned how kind and hard working they are. This is an incredible organization, and I am excited to see it grow.
My daughter is proud to be a Minnesota Jets cheerleader! This organization, the coaches and members truly care about these kids and helping them grow into strong, confident, respectful leaders. They are a family that I am thankful my daughter is a part of!
I can't say enough at how amazing the coaches have all been and how much my daughter has thrived this last year in cheer. The help, dedication and passion these coaches give and have for all the teammates is just phenomenal.
Before I joined the Minnesota Jets I didn't know what being apart of a community felt like. I always felt like an outsider. Once I joined the Minnesota Jets I felt apart of something. I felt like I knew these people for years. They made me feel like someone that matters on and off the mat. We all helped each other grow and push through hard times and we did it as a team. I could not be more proud of what we accomplished. And as we have learned I have no regrets.
Even though this organization was launched in earnest, the program continued to be involved in the community and make time for philanthropic efforts, giving back to the organizations and communities that help support them.
Coaching cheerleading for over 10 years, and being a former cheerleader myself I have had the opportunity to watch how this program came to be and grow. Every competition I have watched how they respect and encourage other teams. They seem to always be in the community doing something. Cheerleading is a different and special sport that can be very difficult. The Jets have shown the spirit of cheerleading.
I was a cheerleader with this coaching team for 2 years and followed to the Minnesota Jets. I have found a place I call family. I trust my teammates and my coaches. I feel appreciated and respected. Most of all I feel safe. I know what I have learned from this program will help me finish high school strong, and has prepared me for my future career and adult life.
It has been an honor to be part of this team and for our first year as a new cheer team to see such success. The commitment from family, cheerleaders, and coaches has been outstanding. Go MN JETS !!
I have had the privilege seeing the commitment and community of this program as a cheerleader. All of the coaches are amazing and the friendships that grow between the cheerleaders is something unlike any other. The Minnesota Jets have been the best organization I’ve ever been apart of and I truly don’t think I will ever find anything else like it.
I have been part of Big Lake Cheer now for almost 5 years. The hard work and dedication the coaches and staff have had starting The Minnesota Jets has just been outstanding. The knowledge and training, the coaches have is transformed into making sure the team is safe while also giving the the team the knowledge for growth. Each cheerleaders individually gets to work with the coaches and staff making sure each one of them have the ability to be safe but while having fun!! The program shows the true meaning of cheerleading and being part of a team! I’m honored to have first hand experience with this program and the cheerleaders growth. I have watch the boys and girls in this program show so much positive growth not only in the sport they all love, but also in their every day life. I have seen so much growth in the cheerleaders, coaches and stuff over this past year! I am truly proud to be part of such an amazing program and cheer family!
My daughter was a first time cheerleader. The dedication of the the coaches and the other team members was something that we have never experienced before in a sport. The coaches make sure that it is a positive and safe atmosphere for all who participate. The work to make sure that all levels of athletes are taken care of and that they are learning the proper way to cheer. Even when they are pushing their athletes to be the best they can, the athletes will walked away from practice with a smile and knowing that they are being supported. Not only does everyone come together to practice, but they also look for ways to make an impact in their respective communities.
I had the privilege of coaching their inaugural season. The program seeks to not just make good competitive cheerleaders but also well rounded young adults that are able to work in teams, creative problem solve, and effectively communicate.
My daughter was one of the cheerleaders in their inaugural first season. The coaches really treated my daughter as if she was one of their own children. They are dedicated not only to the sport but the mental, physical, and the overall wellbeing of each participant. I'm thankful for their dedication to my daughter .
