Some Ideas 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 mascot or the name of a certain team is often drawn in the banner. It will act as a symbol for them to reveal who they really are. Additional effects might be added by simply having each member sign in it. This will somehow represent a certain sense of pride and will tell the crowd who they are as a team.

An interesting and brilliant idea to be drawn in it would be the brick walls. It would represent a sense of conviction and strength that is crucial for all members to win a certain game. Drawing a couple of blocks may seem so repetitive, but if you put some more details into some dimensions of the block, it will heighten the efficiency and quality of creativity among the crowd.

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.

Choose a paper that allows paint or markers. Make sure that could tear off easily so that it will not hinder the players who are passing through. Use poles on both ends so that it will be easier to hold it. PVC, wood and other heavy cardboard tubes are highly recommended and attach it with the use of a heavy masking tape. PVC is often preferred by many people due to its durability, lightweight and can be easily cleaned.

In choosing the paper that will be used, it will be best to buy many of such. This will be used to do some test runs to ensure that it will tear off easily. In case the paper would fail to tear, either the poles would fall into the path of the players as they run through, it could cause injuries.

Put it a particular opening where a team will pass. The entry of the arena or some other gates would be an excellent location in putting up these banners. Hold it tightly so as to stop the poles from going towards the paper as it slowly 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.
