When we quit on people, we teach them to quit on themselves.
Too many fans walk away from a team or a player when they stop winning. That sends a message: we only care about you when you win. Let's Stay in the Game exists to change that. How you show up for others is how you show up for yourself.
Where communication meets sports
The looking-glass self (Charles Horton Cooley, 1902)
We learn who we are partly by picturing how others see us. When people stay with us on the hard days, we learn we're worth staying with.
Fans after wins and losses (Cialdini and colleagues, 1976, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology)
In one study, 32% of students said "we" when describing their school's team after a win, compared with 18% after a loss. Fans move closer after wins and pull away after losses. We ask fans to stay.
Jackie Robinson
"A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives."
Why be a part of the Spirit Squad?
Because the game doesn't stop when it gets hard. As a D1 dancer, I live on the sideline, facing the crowd, bringing energy to the players and to the people in the stands. Join me in carrying that same message: stay in the game.
Why Chandler
- A D1 dancer who cheers players on and fans up
- A communicator who believes a voice should stay, win or lose
- A podcast that brings fans, athletes, and communities closer together
