How To Really Show Your Spirit At Championships

[Alex Dinsmoor]

I will be donning the blazer to go with our tie shirts

You can see me in the background with the crazy/curly hair.



Of course members of our team will be full out FEDS for the competition!

I loved the two in the foreground! No matter what they did, wether it be dancing or cheering, I never saw them smile! I loved watching them go by with the robot also, still never smiling. I enjoyed 201's spirt, and I wish more teams would dress up like that!

Advice? Never cheer your hearts out on the first day! EVER... Did not work so well for us. All of our cheering leaders lost our voices for the last few days of competition and it just left out scouts with the burden of cheering alone.... And you all know how happy and peppy scouts are!

Hey, I'm the loudest person on my team, and I've been head of scouting for two years now!

Actually, at SVR I think I was the loudest person in the stadium... SVR was definitely not as spirit-y as it has been in past years. We did our best to fix that, but hopefully Atlanta will be better.

I don't know if I can say I'm THE loudest, but I think I'm one of the loudest and peppiest people on our team, and I've also been head of scouting for 2 years!

Us scouters just bring spirt like no one else can!

Not to jump on the bandwagon late... But I'm the head scouted and am one of the loudest Even if I do mess up some cheers...

I have to agree with the cheering your teams (progressively getting louder through the competition)

unfortunately that's all that Epsilon Delta has got going for them, it's very hard to think up cheers that fits to a team that really has no solid theme. though we have thought of a few:

the loudest of the group usually myself an 2 others yell out "EPSILON" while the rest of the team shouts out "DELTA"

another one is more of an Inside joke about a mentor, who sent out an email saying "Who Team 116" by accident, within minutes one of the "class clown" team member replied "WE TEAM 116!" so now during some matches 1 guy(or girl) "Who Team 116?" and we all respond "WE TEAM 116!"
------
in past years we've donned hats and foam fingers, with team 116, those are now long gone, lost in our shop.

I love the outrageous get ups some people wear, in fact I'll sometimes "fix myself" to stand out against the rest of my team.

Look out for Pokemon buttons this year

POKEMON BUTTONS!!!! Holy Pikachu, I'm already excited! Everyone on my team loves pokemon, and literally go crazy over pokemon buttons. I NEED to get one!

Oh, and I would suggest you enter it into the Best Button Award Contest.

[Ahnxlazyman]

Haha! I just saw THAT!

I didn't make too many unfortunately (Printer ink is so darn expensive)

I'm not sure as to how many were made (in the process) but:

Original Starters:
Bulbasaur
Squirtle
Charmander

and the very First #116 pokemon: Horsea!

On the topic of scouts being the loudest, our head scout last year was one of the loudest people we've ever had on our team. His loud, deep voice was GREAT for starting cheers.

Out of curiosity, wasn't there a team at MSC who had Pikachu buttons?

Would that be Andy who you are talking about?

And Team 1718's Pi-kachu button was a pokemon button

That's another thing - give the MC your stuff. We normally turn over our poncho for them to wear, but most teams just drop off a flag at the beginning of the event and pick it up at the end. If your team is in the elims, get whatever else you can (give-aways, unique team items (such as 910's hats), or spare t-shirts) on them.

At Regionals we had two of our young ladies wearing cheer uniforms, students using Cheer Megaphones, and there was enough space for a student to wave our School Flag (used for cheer competition so it's HUGE). Will any of these be feasible at World Championships?

I think everything expect for the flag would be possible. The only issue is that you do not have the floor space in the stands in the Georiga dome for things that require a flat space (the stands continue to a railing that leads to a drop off).

If you have the materials, make giant numbers instead of the flag for the stands. Have the field announcer wave the flag before your matches, and keep giant numbers in the stands for the students.

We have other posters (including number cut outs) and a cardboard cut out of our principal and the school spirit stick and head dress.
I just wanted to ask about the questionables

Thanks!
