5 Cheer Bag Essentials

In addition to a water bottle, your cheer shoes, and of course, a healthy snack, here are 5 must-have essentials for your cheer bag.

Extra socks

Just in case you or your teammate forget to wear white ankle socks, it’s always good to keep them in your bag in case of emergencies. In addition to socks, it’s also good to throw an extra pair of everything in your bag if you have space

Tape and braces

This is important to have on hand whether or not you are injured because you never know what may happen and it is always better to be prepared. Plus, you will always be able to help a teammate out in case they forget theirs!

Deodorant/anti-perspirant

Make sure to apply deodorant before you arrive at the competition to ensure that you are smelling fresh all day! It is also good to keep on hand though as you may begin to sweat it off during warmups/competition

Makeup bag

You’ll likely be running around the competition for a few hours before your team competes so make sure you have all your makeup essentials with you! Always arrive at the competition ready and in full glam but this is good for touch-ups (especially lipsticks!)

Hair brush, hair ties, bobby pins, and bows!
