Chants and Cheers Before the Game

It’s normal to feel some apprehension before a high school sporting team, regardless of whether the players you support are newcomers or veterans.
Therefore, the following cheers and chants will energize the team and put them in a mindset where they can confidently count on the crowd’s support right from the start.
- We’re fired up were sizzling.
We’re turning up the heat.

We can’t be beat! - Stomp, Stomp
Clap, clap, clap

Serving/Ace

An ace is scored in volleyball when the ball is served to the opposing team and either received by a player on the receiving unit and immediately placed in the opponent’s court without being touched, or the receiving player serves the ball but is unable to maintain it in play.
Check out the following cheers and chants for when an ace is served:

Ace Cheers
- Kiss my ace!
- (Player’s name) ain’t no buttercup
She knows how to serve it up.
Watch her make that volleyball soar.
She’s gonna help our team to score! - Find the empty space.
Serve that ace - You better duck
You better hide
Cuz (server’s name) is serving to your side - Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide
Look out now
(Server’s name) is serving to your side - Toss it up,
Spike it down
Watch that ball
Bounce off that ground - Ace, Ace, baby!
- You just got served!
- You just got a taste of our A-C-E Ace!
- A{stomp} C{stomp} E{stomp} ace {stomp}
{and land in the middle with your teammates}
Ace Chants
- Wooooosh (slide stepping in one direction), what was that?
Woooooosh (slide stepping on the floor in the opposite direction), you hear that?
Never worry, never fear.
That’s just (server’s name)’s ball flying past your ear! - Uno, dos, Uno dos tres
This next serve’s gonna be an ACE! - We want another one,
Just like the other one
Ace ace ace ace ace - Ace
Ace
In your face - , ace ace in your face,
- awosh ah ah awosh
- A – C – E ace, what what ace!
- A-C-E ACEEEEEEEEE!
- Here’s our server, (player)’s her name!
Watch her ACE and win this game!
Goooooo, (player)! - Uno dos tres, ace ace ace!
- O-V-E-R, Over the net (clap twice)
Serve it, serve it
Go (girl’s name that’s serving)!
Block
It’s great to celebrate a block attempt and even better when the block is successful.
A successful block develops when a player (or player) in the front row jumps and makes contact with the ball before or just after it crosses the net. The ball is sent back into the court of the batter.
Block Cheers
- “You try to get
- All in our space
- We slam that ball
- Back in your face!”
Block Chants
- “YOU SHALL NOT PASS!”
- “She said NO!!”
- “De-NIED!!”
- RRROOOFFF!”
- “Shingle, Shingle, ROOF!”
- [Player who blocked] “BRICK.”
- [Rest of the team] “WALL.”
- “Uhhhhh!” or “Nooooooo!”
Kill
In volleyball, a kill leads whenever an attack by any player on the team results in a point for that team. You win a point when your team blocks the other team from getting the ball back.
Kill Cheers
- Bump, set, spike it
That’s the way we like it! - Jump up and hit it
That’s the way we get the
POINT!
Kill Chants
- (clap clap) (stomp stomp) kill!
- Aaaahhh
Kill kill kill - Slam bam
You can’t block that. - “AHH, killaaa!”
- “Tick, Tick, BOOM!”
Spike
The most spectacular technique to score a point in volleyball is labeled a “spike,” It can have the crowd going wild and give the team a huge morale boost if the spectators cheer and chant after the spike have been made. The act of spiking is sometimes compared to a volleyball slam dunk.
Simply spike the ball to score a point by smashing the ball over the net at an upward or downward angle with significant force, simply spike the ball.
Spike Cheers
- Tick
Tick
BOOM
- You gotta bump it
To set it
To spike it
To score it
- Bump it
Set it
Spike it
That’s the way we like it
- Bump
Set
Hit
Spike
That’s the way we like to fight
- Spike it to them!
Spike it to them!
Go, team, go
- you gotta want it,
to win it.
, and we want it more!
SPIKE CHANTS
- You try to get
All in our space
We slam that ball
Back in your face!
- Don’t try to get all in our space
Cause we’ll slam that ball back in your face
Tip
A “tip” pushes when players gently tip the ball over the goal with their fingers. Even if a tip isn’t as thrilling as some other volleyball plays, we still have a few chants and cheers for you to use still.
Tip Cheers
- Tip
Tip
Tipper - Tip tip hooray
Tip tip hooray
Tip tip hooray! - WOOOOOSH!
Chants and Cheers After the Game

The end of the game is no reason to cease cheering and chanting. The best work to celebrate a victory is to let the winning team know how much you value their efforts on the court.
Keep the team’s spirits up and show them how much you value their efforts, even if they didn’t come out on the team.
If your team just lost, you should use the chants 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11 from the first portion of this team (before the cheers); however, the cheers below are great if they just won.
- We’re turning up the heat
Cause when it comes to volleyball
We just can’t be beat!
- V-is for victory
I SAID V-is for victory
Slice that V
Dot that i
Rock that C-T-O-R-Y
- Take it to the limit
Take it to the top
Cause we’re the Mighty [team name]
And we can’t be stopped
- Excellence, perfection,
Teamwork and success
[Team name] varsity
