Go Team! Cheerleading Trading Pins and Their Benefits

Would a sport truly be a sport with a great team of cheerleaders cheering them on? What would a sport be without them? That’s the common view of cheerleaders, but it’s outdated. Today’s cheerleaders and cheer squads compete in their own events, and are recognized as athletes in their own right. There's no denying that they are engaged in a sport of their own.

Trading pins are a great way to celebrate your cheer squad’s athletic abilities. Just as other sports trade pins at competitions, so do modern cheerleading teams. Here are some awesome trading pin ideas and the benefits of having them.

Benefits

Cheer trading pins offer positive feedback both to your squad and to your school. They offer a range of benefits you might not have considered.

Team and School Pride

Displaying custom pins is a great way to show your team's pride and their school pride. Each cheerleader will have the ability to display their pin wherever they go. Have them pin it to a leather jacket or even a backpack!

Unite the Team

Custom trading pins boost team spirit and camaraderie. Show your squad pride with pins that reflect your logo, mascot or team motto. A shared vision brings your team together!
