Effective Tips For A Football Run Through Banner

By Nita McKinney


Before a certain football game begins, especially in various college or high school events, it is usual for a particular team to make a football run through while entering the arena. It is often the responsibility of the cheerleaders and their mascots to hold it on both ends while the whole team is running their way through it. This is often an act that is done to intimidate and surprise the opponents and particularly, it brings along a certain design that is essential for them.

The name of the team or their mascot is usually drawn into a banner. It would serve as a substance to show the real team. Every member could sign it to put some additional effects. It will usually designate a particular level of pride and in an easy way, it will declare who you are as a whole team.

A brick wall may also be an excellent idea for it. It will denote a level of strength and conviction that is needed by a member to win the game. Drawing several dozens of bricks may seem so repetitive, but if you put some details to the dimensions of the bricks, it will raise the quality and effectiveness of the imagination of the audience.

A quote or a motto can also be written to represent a certain field or sport in general. Pick a quote that will represent your name. Choose the one that can have an impact on the audience. In light to this, you might also consider using various fonts for all the letters that would have every color that would represent your team.

In making such, consider all the details that will be placed including the logo, graphics and wordings. The standard one is up to three meters wide and two meters high. Therefore, you will need a greater space in order to make it. Always remember that it should have the sufficient width to allow multiple players to pass through it at the same time.

Select a paper which is allowed for paint and markers and can easily tear off so that it would not interfere with the players that are passing through. Attach some poles on both sides of it so that it could be held easily. Wood, PVC and some heavy cardboard tubes are highly suggested and attach it using a heavy masking tape. Many would prefer using PVC because it is light in weight, durable and easily cleaned.

In picking the paper that you will be using, make sure to buy many as you can. This will be used in conducting a couple of test runs to ensure that it would tear off properly. If the paper will fail to tear, or maybe the poles may fall into the way of the athletes as they run, it might cause some injuries.

Stretch it across an opening where the team will pass. The good places would be a gate or the entrance of the place where the game will be held. It should be held firmly to prevent its poles from being pulled inwards as the paper tears.

Long strips of tape must be avoided in making football run through banners. It will only block the athletes from entering over it. Place some flaps and slits so that the wind can blow in it and so that it would not look like a parachute when you start to display it in a windy area.
