Cheerleading Party TipZ for Teenagers

Cheerleading themed birthday parties are fun for members of the cheer squad or people who just like cheerleading and sports! Get your cheer on with these Cheerleading Birthday Party TipZ for teenagers.

The first step of planning your party is to send out invitations. You’ll want to send out invitations about a month in advance to be sure to get your space on people’s schedules (especially if it’s football or cheer camp season) and expect about 25% of your RSVPs to come back regrets. If having an exact head count is essential to your plans, be sure to set a date by which you want people to RSVP and make sure they know how best to contact you (e-mail, phone, megaphone, etc.)

Our Girl Time Cheer Party Kit includes a paper invitation with a girly cheer design and a space for you to write in your party details. Another fun invitation idea is to write all your party details on a tag and attach them to Hair Poms. The Hair Poms can also be worn on wrists and will make a fun accessory for guests to wear to games and to the party!

If you’re inviting the entire cheer squad and aren’t shy, it might be fun to deliver your invites to everyone in the form of a cheer! It’ll be sure to get the party on everyone’s minds!

Welcome guests to your party with a Personalized Cheer Banner. The custom vinyl banner is printed on heavy-duty, weather-resistant vinyl and is customized with your own wording on the sporty cheerleading design. Have guests sign the banner for a wonderful keepsake! We also have a Custom Vertical Cheer Banner, which is great for hanging on doors.

Create a fantastic focal point for your cheerleading party with the Loud and Proud Megaphone Decoration. This megaphone is available customized with your school or personal initials and comes in blue/gold, black/gold, purple/gold, blue/white, purple/white, green/white, or red/white. Place it by the entrance customized with the birthday girl’s initials and take awesome keepsake photos with it! Plus, it’ll make a great decoration in her bedroom for years to come.

Decorate for your cheerleading party using your favorite team colors or coordinating with the Girl Time Cheer Party Kit. The party kit includes tableware for 8, a white plastic tablecover, silver star confetti, and blue and pink pearl tone balloons with coordinating curling ribbon.

Use our gossamer decorating material to create swags and curtains to coordinate with your school colors. Check out our Gossamer TipZ for plenty of ideas on how to use gossamer. Create chair bows to go on the back of guests’ chairs.

Balloon bunches are also a great party decoration. They’ve got lots of spunk, which is perfect for cheerleading parties. Create balloon bunches out of odd numbers of balloons coordinating with your party colors. Anchor balloons to balloon weights, banisters, or the back of chairs with coordinating curling ribbon.

For party activities, have the girls learn a cheer, paint each other’s nails, or watch cheerleading movies like Bring It On! If the girls’ aren’t on the cheer squad have a member of the squad or an adult with cheer experience come in to teach them a cheer or a few basic stunts (always make sure there’s mats and other safety precautions).

Cover your party tables with a plastic tablecover that coordinates with your party colors. Sprinkle plenty of metallic star confetti over the top. For a centerpiece, place a custom cheerphone in the middle and add some milky way star garland coming out the top and in twines across the center of the table, like a spirited table runner.

Set the table with the Girl Time Cheer Tableware or with plastic tableware in your party colors. Create cutlery bundles by wrapping personalized napkins around your matching plastic cutlery. Secure the bundle with milky way garland or with a favor like a cheer cell phone charm or a sequin snap bracelet. Set a Chearleader Spirit Stadium Cup at each place as a favor that does double duty as tableware.

ShindigZ has tons of cheer gear for you to give for guests as fantastic party favors. Place an Ultra Personalized Cheerphone at each place setting. These cheerphones can be personalized with your party details printed right on them! Cheer Funtoo Sets are also great favors for decorating your guests with spirit during the party and afterward for more fun! Guests might also like cheer socks, cheer pom pom pins, and other favors like body glitter and daisy swirl lip gloss. The birthday girl will love our Rhinestone Cheer Tee!

Add some metallic curtains to your doorways for some extra pizzazz. A silver metallic curtain is a great choice for this theme.

Use balloon bunches to fill out your party space. Pink and blue pearl tone balloons are a great match for this theme.

Girl Time Cheer Party Activities and Games

Ideally for your cheerleading party, your activity will be cheerleading. See if a local squad or just a few members can come over and teach you how to cheer. Practice easy stunts, cheers and dance routines. Stock the girls up with spirit pom poms and cheerphones.

There are also plenty of fun party games to play!

Chubby Bunny.
All you need is marshmallows and several willing victims…uh, contestants. Each contestant stuffs a marshmallow in his/her mouth and says “Chubby Bunny” (you could have them say something else – like “Go Panthers!”). They repeat this until only one person is left who can actually say the slogan with all the marshmallows in his/her mouth!

The Knot
Stand in a small circle, shoulder to shoulder and close your eyes. First, everyone reaches in their left hand and grabs someone else’s hand. Then, still holding left hands, repeat with right hands. Now everyone will be holding hands with two other people (if both hands you’re holding belong to the same person that’s okay too.) Open your eyes. Try to unravel the knot you’ve created by holding hands so that everyone will be standing in an untwisted circle, holding hands. This is a good team builder and a challenging, but fun game.

Murder
Everyone sits in a circle. Choose one person to be a detective and another to be the killer. Make sure the detective is out of sight and ear-shot when you choose the killer. When the detective returns, the killer starts killing others by winking to victims. If you are a subtle killer the detective will have a hard time figuring it out. Take turns being the detective and the killer.

Once the cheerleading fun is complete, turn the party into an all-out sleepover bash.

Turn your house into a spa by stocking up on nail polishes, lip glosses, facial masks and all the things girls will need for some pampering time.

The girls will love a game of Truth or Dare, just be sure to keep the dares clean and safe and warn the girls about hurting each other’s feelings.

Have a cheerleading movie marathon. Rent or borrow movies such as Bring it On! or High School Musical and pop some popcorn. Even classics like Grease work for this activity.

Party Favor Ideas for a Girl Time Cheerleading Party

Party favors are a fun way to thank guests for taking part in your party.

Create a favor pack for your party by choosing a favor bag or box from our party favor store and filling it with party favors. We suggest filling a Heart Shaped Bucket with daisy swirl lip gloss, glitter nail polish, cheer stickers, silver body glitter, blue pom poms, hologram hair twists, a stretch bracelet, and a Cheerleaders Rock water bottle.

You can create your own favor packs by ordering any combination of the above favors.

Another fantastic favor idea for a cheer party is a personalized cheerphone. You can have custom cheerphones printed with your party details. They’re tons of fun and make great keepsakes.

Invitations for a Girl Time Cheer Party

A Girl Time Cheer Party is a fun theme for your cheerleading get-together or birthday party. The girly decorations are great for girls and cheerleaders of all ages. Once you’ve chosen this theme the next step is deciding on a slogan to be used in your invitations, custom banners or personalized favors. Here are our ideas for a Girl Time Cheer Party:
• “Come Cheer Rachel for a Happy Birthday!”
• “Gimme F-U-N on Sam’s Birthday!”
• “We’ve got spirit for Melanie’s party!”

Next, select invitations to send out to your guests. The Girl Time Cheer Party Kit comes with a paper invitation that matches the tableware and decorations. Just write in your party details and mail them to your guests. Add a pinch of confetti for some extra spirit.

If you can hand deliver your invitations, make them on the computer and attach them with curling ribbon to small favors such as pom-poms or cheer phones.

For a really cool invitation, have your party details printed on a personalized cheerphone and hand them out to guests!

Gather the Squad with Cheerleading Invitations

Hosting a cheerleading theme party is a perfect and fun idea for a group of cheerful young girls! If the guest-of-honor is a cheerleader, this is a natural pick for her party. But even is she is not, she and her friends are sure to love this fun theme!

A cute idea for invitations would be to give everyone a small, inexpensive megaphone with a computer-generated sticker on the side stating the details of the party and telling the guests to bring the megaphone with them that day for some winning spirit! Our personalized megaphones can even be custom printed with your party details!

Make your own invitations out of heavy paper, detailing your party information. Then, glue clusters of metallic shred to the invitations to look like pom pons.

Be sure to send your invitations out 3-4 weeks in advance and expect about 25% of your invitations to R.S.V.P. as regrets. Check out all of our cheerleading party tips!
