[Get Hyped] A compilation of cool and funny team huddles (1–10)
The huddle of the Osaka Toin High School baseball team

I believe that simply raising your voice can ease tension for individuals and teams and help improve performance.
You often see teams forming a huddle not only before a game, but also during the game or after an interval to change the mood, right? The video shows a classic huddle, but by unifying a three-part long-tone chant, you can boost team morale and make an impact on the opponent.
If your team’s morale dips and you want a quick lift, or you just want to reset the mood, give this a try for reference.

A huddle from the Seiritsu Gakuen basketball team where they link arms, jump, and sing about their love and pride for their alma mater.
It’s a huddle that boosts unity right before a game, so it’s also recommended for people in school or club teams.
By swapping in the name of your own school or club, you can sharpen your focus even more.
Because everyone sings loudly together, it helps raise the whole team’s energy.
Meeting your teammates’ eyes and exchanging words fuels the pre-game passion.

It’s a huddle whose sharp calls and crisp motions heat up the heart.
Within the classic flow—matching the chant to the lead person’s shout—there are powerful movements that feel like stamping the earth.
There are also gestures that seem to inject yourself with fighting spirit and even attack-like motions, giving the impression that team unity is rising.
By moving the body lightly, it’s a huddle that warms you up both mentally and physically.
We are No.1

A song that brings your hearts together by clapping in rhythm and stepping in sync pumps you up even more.
Let’s fire each other up by looking your teammates in the eye and shouting loudly.
By sharing with everyone why you’re forming the huddle, the team can fight toward a single goal.

If we win, ◯◯! If we lose, ◯◯

♪ Original song – Babe – Babe
Here’s a hype chant to use before a sports tournament.
It goes, “If we win, we get ◯◯! If we lose, we get ◯◯!” Fill the blanks with things like food or drinks, and have everyone shout in unison to get pumped up.
Adding handclaps in the middle gives it rhythm and makes it even more exciting.
Including reward-type words in the chant will boost motivation to win.
The time you spend as a team discussing what to put in the ◯◯ will also be a valuable moment that deepens your bonds.
Kagoshima Technical High School’s team huddle

There are many different ways to form a huddle, whether with arms around each other or holding hands.
It might be interesting to try a sequence that unfolds through various formations.
Doing a set routine in a situation where you’re psyching yourselves up could boost the group’s sense of unity.
It’s an easy-to-understand huddle where everyone responds in chorus to the calls of the person in the center, and the little jokes mixed in are a nice touch.
The calls not only fire everyone up but also help them relax, don’t you think?
Lucky Boy

To get results in a contest, past effort and ability are essential, but luck in the moment is also an important factor.
This is a fun, high-energy huddle meant to draw luck to our side when we take on a challenge.
The flow goes like this: the person in the center shouts as if declaring that today’s luck is on our side, and the people around respond to the chant while clapping along.
The distinctive clapping rhythm is another element that highlights the fun, and by adding variations in tempo, it seems to lift everyone’s spirits even more.
