Sport is, first of all, competition. People with different habits and tastes come together to do one common thing - to defeat rivals. There are several concepts that inspire, cheer up, make you move to victory: motto, phrase, team name. Maintaining a fighting spirit is very important, therefore, all members of the team should take part in their creation.
What is the name of the team, motto, speech, chants in sports
Competitions should bring joy and you need to start small. A good name, phrase and motto for the team is half the success. The name of the team should be associated with a victory. No one should doubt that, for example, “Strong Wolves” are really strong, trained guys who will be able to defeat the enemy. The motto will help not to go astray, and move along a straight road without changing the principles of the team. Greetings, chants and speeches will support, direct the thoughts of athletes in a positive direction, intimidate the opponent.
Team name
Speech and motto for the team are very important, but first you need to come up with a name and a greeting. If the participants of the competition are performing together for the first time, a new name must be selected. It can decorate a team or frighten opponents. It is enough to use one or two words. The main thing is that the meaning of the “name” is clear to both fans and other competitors. The name should be easy to pronounce and reflect the community of the team. For a long time, united groups always appear under the same name, which over time becomes famous.
The name of the sports team must correspond to its affiliation with a particular sport, gender composition. Men's teams should reflect strength, resistance to troubles, while women's teams can emphasize the beauty in the name. Do not choose aggressive names leading to enmity and contention. It is necessary that the "name" of the team was remembered, resonant and evoke pleasant associations.
Team motto
Next up is the team’s motto. This is a short phrase consisting of several words. It unites team members, inspires during competitions, reflects the basic qualities of players. It is not necessary to observe a rhyme, but if a certain rhythm is present, the fans will remember it faster and easier. Sometimes aphorisms reflecting the team’s inner world are used as a motto. Best of all, when the name and motto overlap. If the team is called “Tigers”, then the motto “We fly above all - success awaits us!” Is clearly not suitable. The main rule is brevity, but capacity. All in a couple of lines you need to fit the whole meaning of the existence of the team, its goals and desires. To tell what aspirants strive for, or what life values ​​they adhere to. The main thing is that this is not a call for violence, inciting ethnic hatred, preaching a harmful lifestyle, unsportsmanlike behavior, dishonest games.
Sports greeting
A greeting for a sports team before the start of the competition will lighten the mood of the athletes, set them up for combat, demonstrate the strengths of the team, and talk about the desire to win. You can invent it yourself, and then pass it on to the fans so that they pronounce it from the rostrum during the release of the sports team. Or they can prepare it themselves.
And it also happens, especially in children's competitions, that the team itself or its support group speaks with greeting. The text should be briefly, but interesting to talk about the members of the team. Better in poetry. Introduce the captain. You can slightly scare your opponents by listing sports achievements and the best qualities of athletes that will definitely help you win in competitions.
Sports chants
How can viewers help their favorite team? Of course, in a word: with chants and chants. For all their similarities, they differ from each other. Speech is a short story about a team explaining why it should win. A chant is a rhymed line of a few words, shouting out loud which fans let the team know about their support. Some of them do not belong to a specific team, but support the country from which its participants came, for example: "Ole-Ole-Ole! Russia, go!"
Sometimes it happens that the team for some reason lost heart. Perhaps they are not satisfied with the score or the rivals behave ugly. This is where the chant comes to the rescue. She will cheer up the members of the sports team, drive away a sad mood, return the desire to win. Moreover, to compose a short but expressive chant is very simple. You can rhyme the name of the team with some inspirational word, for example, "Bears - forward, to victory!". Or, on the contrary, pick up something similar to “Screws are blind moles!” To the opposing team.
Sports speech
After the motto was composed, and the speech for the sports team will be easily invented. It does not take much time. The main thing is that chants, slogans, speeches and team names should be effective, vivid. Ideally, they impress opponents and spectators. Fans and opponents should know who sports mottos and chants are intended for. The name of the team must be mentioned in them.
Every self-respecting fan should be able to chant or scream the speech. To do this, you just need to have a sense of rhythm. Hearing and voice are optional. The motto of the team, speech and greeting are easy to pronounce and remember. Thanks to them, the spectators and athletes are in a good mood, they in a single impulse begin to wish for victory and believe in its achievement. Fans of different teams, as a rule, compete who screams louder and whose speech is more interesting.
What are chants and chants
The motto and speech for the sports team emphasize the dignity of the participants in the competition, talk about their best sports qualities: endurance, determination. The motto can not be changed, but the chants and chants can be very diverse. Who in our country does not know the famous chant: "Spartak is the champion!" And even those who are far from sports and have absolutely no idea about this team are familiar with her.
This is an example of a successfully invented slogan that is remembered the first time even by those who are not fans. Often we hear it not only in stadiums, but even in the streets or in cafes. After all, the debate about who plays hockey better has been going on for many years, and the main argument of the opponents of Zenit is this phrase.
The most popular with us are football or hockey chants. This is due to the fact that these sports in Russia are in first place in terms of the number of fans. And how else can you express your attitude to the sport, team, opponents and even the coach? Yes, even loudly and in chorus to hear the whole stadium? Of course, rhyming a few lines, and announce them, using all the power of their lungs.
What chants and chants are not suitable for stadiums
Anyone who has ever been to a sports event knows how many talented people we have who are able to come up with chants and mottoes for teams. Funny chants are mainly used to demonstrate the opponent’s shortcomings or to express dissatisfaction with the work of a judge.
Often they are offensive or using profanity. They are especially abused by football fans. In order not to be so sad, the support of rivals in return comes up with anti-chants. So the competition is not only in the stadium, but also in the stands.
What chants and words are best used
Still, the speech and the motto for the team should be witty, not humiliating. Using rhymed lines, it is not forbidden to glorify your team and its participants, to express delight from a beautiful game. It is necessary to emphasize the merits of the members of your sports team, and not to flaunt the flaws of someone else's, often invented for the sake of a red word.
There are general chants, their meaning is in expressing attitudes to sports in general, support for their country or city. In this case, they are designed to emphasize the love of a particular sport, to evoke patriotic feelings.
The name, greeting, speech and motto for the team rally the team, inspire, give confidence in their abilities, make them strive for victory as a whole, feel their friend’s shoulder close by, feel the support and love of the fans. Invented with a soul, they will definitely lead the team to success!
