Who We Are

The Neuqua Valley Booster Club was established in 1997 when the school was officially opened. Our mission and purpose is to support, encourage and aid the athletic activities of students at Neuqua Valley High School. The Neuqua Valley Booster Club is a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization with the Internal Revenue Service and State of Illinois. This means any contributions above the membership fee could be a tax deduction (please consult your tax advisor).

What We Provide

Coaching Clinics

In the past five years, the Booster Club has provided nearly $12,000 for Neuqua coaches to attend clinics to further their coaching education.

Senior Scholarships

The Booster Club awards ten $1,000 scholarships yearly to deserving Senior athletes.
