Commissioner Mauro G. Tucci and the Nutley Department of Parks and Recreation are preparing for another season of Recreation Sports. Cheerleading applications are currently being accepted at the Recreation Department, located at 44 Park Ave. Practice will begin mid to late summer for the Cheerleading Program. Online registration is now available at https://register.communitypass.net/nutley. Applications are also being accepted at the Recreation Department, 44 Park Ave.
This program is open to Nutley youngsters in grades 3 through 8 as of September 2023. Our programs are designed to provide youth with a positive youth sports experience. We do this by emphasizing learning the sport, sportsmanship and an equal opportunity to participate. “We offer a variety of programs year-round that encourage the development of positive attitudes while focusing on teamwork,” stated Commissioner Tucci. Recreation Cheering is a great way for children to express themselves while being taught team unity, basic dance techniques, and good sportsmanship. Curriculum includes body moves, dexterity development and the coordination of extremities.
The goal of the Recreation Department is to provide activities that increase each child's self-confidence and respect for oneself and others while establishing and maintaining a fitness level that encourages life-long habits to promote good health. “Cheerleading is an important element in our sports programs, encouraging the crowd to show community spirit and support the playing teams efforts” stated Commissioner Tucci.
The fee for this program will be $35.00 per child with a deadline of June 15, 2023. No registrations will be accepted after the final deadline.
If you have any questions or need further information on this or any Recreation Program, please contact the department at 973-284-4966, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
