The Best Cheer Team Bonding Activity
The Best Cheer Team Bonding Activity
This is one of the most powerful cheer team bonding activities you can do with your team! If you are looking for a cheer team bonding activity that will create closer bonds on your team and boost the positive energy, try this one out.
We call this activity “I’ve Got Your Back.” In my opinion, this is the best cheer team bonding activity you can do with your cheer team!
My cheer team loves this activity! Before we left for cheer camp this year, they asked if we were going to do this activity. I did not come up with this activity, so I can’t take credit. But I am happy to pass it along because it has such a powerful impact as a team bonding activity. I first learned about this bonding in my sorority, we did this as new members.
“I’ve Got Your Back”
The purpose of the activity is for each person to write a positive and encouraging statement about every single person on the team. After the activity, each cheerleader gets to take home a piece of paper covered with positive messages about them written by their teammates.
How It Works
Step 1: Give each cheerleader a blank piece of paper and ask them to write their name in the middle.
Step 2: Tape the paper to their back, they can have a teammate help them.
Step 3: Each cheerleader has a marker. Their job is to write a positive message on the back of every single cheerleader.
Bonus tip: play music as they walk around and write on the backs of their teammates! I looked up a playlist on Spotify called ‘Senior Songs’.
And that’s it! Each cheerleader has a page full of encouragement from their peers. Your team can do this cheer team bonding activity at any point in the season.
