Players aren’t the only ones that are a
part of a team’s success. Students who attend their games and cheer them on
also play a major role. By finding ways to show your spirit, you can support
your high school football team and encourage others to do the same.
Being a
loyal fan means doing more than just wearing your school colors during pep
rallies or games. By finding creative ways to show your spirit and get others
involved, you can help your football team and your school.
Spirit Squad
A spirit squad plays an important role in
getting others hyped for and spreading the word about football games. When
developing a spirit squad, it is important to find people with a similar level
of school spirit as you.
Bringing in people with different talents can help as
well. If you have people with computer, arts and music skills, they can use
their talents to engage others in your school community.
Your spirit squad can
encourage greater school spirit by developing different themes for each
football game, decorating lockers with numbers and pictures of different
players, developing team flags or banners, naming an athlete of the week or
having special fundraisers or themed events for the team.
Unique Pep Rallies
A school pep rally is an important way to
rally students around a football team. If you find ways to make students feel
involved or invested in the team, they are more likely to attend the games. One
great way to engage students is through giveaways.
Pass out football-themed
door prizes or have football players or cheerleaders give out items such as
pins or candy during pep rallies. If you plan ahead, you can get students more
directly involved in pep rallies.
You can do this by asking students to put
together skits or routines, holding school-themed poster contests, getting
students to help decorate the gym, encouraging students to dress up in themed
outfits or having school spirit contests between different grade levels.
Team Mascot
You can be your team’s number one supporter
as the mascot, as long as you have the time and skills. The mascot role usually
requires someone with a lot of energy and the ability to engage with others. To
look your best, you want to have a uniform that sticks out and fits with your
team.
You can find many different options of mascot costumes for sale online. While
being a mascot requires a big commitment on your part, it is a great way to
show your school spirit.
Club Involvement
School sports programs are stronger when
teams support each other. By getting players from other girls and boys teams to
show their spirit for the football team, you can help to make your school more
united.
Getting other teams to support the football team will also have a chain
effect because during the off season, the football team and its fans will be
more likely to go to watch other school sports teams.
You can help to get other
teams involved by hosting events that bring together different sports teams and
spreading the word about the football team at other sporting events.
School spirit can come in different forms.
You can show your school spirit by serving as your school’s mascot, or by being
a spirit squad member. Finding the role that works best for you is the key to
being a strong supporter.
By getting others involved with your school’s
football team and other sports programs, you can show that you have a passion
for not just your football team but your school as well.
