      Navarro News | Navarro College Cheerleaders star in Netflix series

      07 Jan Navarro College Cheerleaders star in Netflix series

      Posted at 10:42h in Corsicana Campus by NavarroNews

      Netflix announced a new six-episode documentary series, Cheer, featuring the Navarro College cheerleaders, which will premiere Jan. 8.

      From the team behind Last Chance U, Netflix’s documentary series Cheer follows the competitive cheerleaders of Navarro College in Corsicana. Led by Monica Aldama, the small junior college has won 14 National Championships since 2000.

      The stakes on the mat are high, but for these athletes, the only thing more brutal than their workouts and more exceptional than their performances are the stories of adversity and triumph behind the team members themselves.

      Over the course of six episodes, viewers will join the Navarro College cheerleaders as they face injuries, sacrifice, personal setbacks and triumphs, all leading up to one nail-biting and adrenaline pumping final competition at the National Championship.

      “Our new series Cheer is as much about cheerleading as Last Chance U is about football. Which is to say, it has cheerleading in it. A lot of cheerleading.” said Greg Whiteley, director and executive producer.

      “But the most poignant moments are the ones that happen away from practice. A college cheerleader wrestles with the same issues any young person in college has to deal with, what our series shows is that off the mat issues can’t help but bleed onto the mat. Showing the poetry between the exactness of their routines juxtaposed with the intricacies of their personal lives produces my favorite moments in the series and I’m excited for viewers to experience the gritty but beautiful world of Navarro College Cheer.”

      Cheer is produced by One Potato Productions, Boardwalk Pictures and Caviar. For One Potato: executive producer is Greg Whiteley, supervising producer is Adam Leibowitz, and producers are Arielle Kilker and Chelsea Yarnell. For Boardwalk Pictures, executive producers are Andrew Fried and Dane Lillegard. For Caviar, executive producers are Jasper Thomlinson and Bert Hamelinck.
