It might seem like some Clover Hill sports teams lack support. Many students believe that reducing the entry price into events will change that by increasing school spirit and creating for a more encouraging atmosphere.

Some people feel like the price of tickets is a barrier for students that want to attend the games. If this barrier is broken, the student section would be more supportive. The support from students would reflect on the performance of our student athletes. Junior Will Lohr, a student athlete, shares his ideas on improving support for sports teams. 

“I think if we were to lower the costs there would be more support. It would overall be more alive and the games wouldn’t be as bland,” Lohr said. “More support is always better.”

With a limited turnout at games, there is a lack of school spirit. This lack of school spirit overall negatively impacts the atmosphere in the student sections. 

Renee Green, Assistant Principal of Clover Hill High School, cannot understate the importance of an energized student section.

“Students bring energy, they bring excitement, the more people you have in the stands the more the players are then likely to play better.”

Despite this challenging season that Clover Hill sports teams are experiencing, students want to revive school spirit. Many students hope that with a lower ticket price, attendance at the games will boost the atmosphere.

With more support pouring into these sports events, teams might have a chance to improve.

“Part of it is that people want to come see games where people are winning. If certain programs start to win then more people are more likely to come,” Green said.

Students remain hopeful that the price changes affect school spirit at Clover Hill sports events.
