The Beginning
World Cup grew from the Pop Warner success of mother–daughter team Elaine Pascale and Joelle Antico. For many years, Pascale served as coach of the local Pop Warner team that her younger daughter Janee had joined. In 1992, the family moved to Freehold, New Jersey, where Pascale found herself coaching a Pop Warner midget squad with the assistance of her eldest daughter Joelle. That year, they won the National Championship! After the national win, a small group of their students and parents persuaded them to start a competition squad, and the World Cup All Stars were born. In 1994, the gym was officially established.
World Cup has now grown to 5 locations and OVER 40 teams! They believe in one simple philosophy, FAMILY FIRST! World Cup prides itself on providing a home for any athlete regardless of age and ability, there is a team for everyone.
Our Mission
World Cup strives to provide a safe, fun, and competitive space for all cheerleaders to thrive and attain their goals!
