Stars Vipers Looks To Reclaim 11 NCA Titles!

"We can't do anything as individuals."

The Stars Vipers cleaned up last year at NCA All-Star Nationals when five of their teams left with black jackets and national titles. When it returns to Dallas to compete on Friday, Feb. 24, to Saturday, Feb. 27, the national powerhouse will only have one thing on its mind -- repeating as champions.

If you walked into the Stars Vipers gym in San Antonio this week, you'd find the coaches doing last-minute cleaning to ensure that each team will be taking the mat with sharp routines -- down to the last detail of every element. The Stars Vipers are known for their cleanliness and technicality, and they plan to keep that same reputation after this weekend's performances. They're even keeping the fun going throughout the week by having themed practices!


Gym owner Rebecca Rios shared what the program is hoping to achieve in Dallas this weekend.

Our goals at NCA, like any competition, are to hit our routines keeping as much difficulty as possible, with having high execution scores. It's never to get first, but as coaches and owners we want to do our job to set them up for success.

In addition to working hard to achieve their goals, the Stars Vipers plan on working TOGETHER.

We can't do anything as individuals. It's all of us coming together...Owners, coaches, and parents surrounding our athletes with support, the athletes coming together on the mat, and of course everyone praying together with the parents and, again, right before they take the mat.
