Hello Jr. Eagle families! My name is Jennifer Camilleri and I am very excited to be the Head Coach for the Pee Wee squad this year! I have three daughters and one son, Amaya (15) Gianna (10), Amelia (7) and Nash (2). Amaya was in the VJE program from Mascots to Midgets and Gianna will be starting her 4th year this season. In the last nine years, I have been involved in the program as a team mom, I have served on the VJE Board as Secretary, and I am entering my third year of being a Head Coach. Our family absolutely loves being a part of this program and the principles it instills in children. I look forward to coaching this year and continuing to develop these young athletes through the wonderful sport of cheer with this great program.
