At my school, we make up a hello cheer for our individual tryout. Can I have your opinion and constructive criticism?
Here it is:
Field Falcons
Prepared for the fight
We're back and we're better
In red & white
Nothing but perfection
We'll come out on top
Stay clear Rough Riders
Champions can't be stopped
Theirs only room for One
and we're ready to score
Flying high and fast
We'll dominate this floor
 
What a fun idea and great way to get new things.

Is the cheer for a specific sport? Without that, the Flying high and fast tends to bother me a little. It sounds like a cheer for a cheer team, if you are a cheer person. If you aren't, and this was chanted at a football game, flying high and fast sounds reckless and of course floor doesn't apply. Who are the rough riders?

Might consider a slight change to be more generic

Field Falcons
Prepared for the fight
We're back and we're better
In red & white
Nothing but perfection
We'll come out on top
There is only room for one
Champions can't be stopped!
 
I tried to cheer it and it was really awkward. Try shorter syllables.
Example:
Field Falcons
Are ready to fight
We are
The mighty red and white
Only perfection
We belong on top
No Rough Riders
We can't be stopped
There's only room for one
And we're ready to score
Falcons are the best
And nothing more

I like it for the most part, only changes I would make are:
change the third line to: We're back, We're better
fourth line to : We're the red and the white
eigth line to : Falcons can't be stopped
Otherwise I like it. Good luck and cute words. Hate hearing the same words over and over again, these are unique.

I have a few questions...How does flying high and fast sound reckless? Our mascot is Falcons so I thought 'flying' would work well in a cheer :-P I really can't have it generic, It has to be original or else I'll get points taken off for it. To answer your question, the rough riders are our rivals, and yes its for a cheer team.. I am aiming it to be a basketball/competition cheer. How does floor not apply? I'll be doing it on the basketball court. Aslo, what do you mean by it was chanted at a football game? I made this up myself. I got some ideas from other cheers and chants but other then that..

Good advice! Thank you:)

You are welcome. Be original, I actually have the judges look for originality in words and motions, if you do 3 high v's in your cheer it tells me that you don't know any other moves. Coaches love seeing originality that works well, not over the top crazy, but a new perspective. Good luck!
