The NCA was founded in 1948 by Lawrence “Herkie” Herkimer and continues to hold his vision of creating an atmosphere to cultivate the whole cheerleader. They embrace their rich heritage as the first cheerleading company and continue to pioneer the way with innovative camp curriculum, industry-leading championships and events that reward the hard-working, well-rounded cheerleaders in America today.
Skipper was a First Team All-KCAC performer in cheer, helping the Braves capture the 2018 and 2019 KCAC Championship. She also led the Braves to an eighth place finish at the National Cheer Association (NCA) National Championships in 2018 and 2019.
