NIKE x CHEERLEADING
Gaining Cheer respect as an Olympic standard sport

Problem
Cheerleading is a serious & growing sport!
But people don't know what Cheer is, they only know what Cheer was.
Insight
The sparkles and bows hide how multi-disciplined and extreme cheerleaders are.
Strategy
Cheer's evolution demonstrates a powerful "from nothing, to something" story that resonates with sports fans.
Solution
Cheer has Changed.
#notonthesidelines
Cheer is not on the sidelines of other sports, it's the main event.
By pairing with Nike and taking a real approach to what cheer is, where it has come from and where it's going - we want to change the perception of cheerleading and excite the public for it to be in the Olympics 2028.
INITIAL RELEASE POSTERS & SOCIAL MEDIA



INITIAL ENGAGEMENT
