Homecoming Halftime Ideas
- Crown a homecoming king and queen during halftime. For this homecoming halftime idea, showcase each student who is running for the popular titles by announcing their names and grade levels, and give brief tidbits about their hobbies, goals and families. Get the athletes on your school's sports teams to escort the students out on the sports field or court. The school's band can provide the background music, or it can be broadcasted over the public announcement system.
- Showcase your school's senior class members during halftime. This homecoming halftime idea gives your school a chance to recognize those seniors who have excelled in and out of the classroom. This is the time where you can award seniors who have had perfect attendance during their senior years or throughout their entire educational careers. You can also recognize students for community service and academic achievements.
- Mascots entertain the crowds at sporting events. They also promote school spirit. Create a competition for halftime that features your school's mascot. The best mascot not only wins the competition, but also school bragging rights. For this homecoming halftime idea, you can organize a race between your school's mascot and the opposing school's mascot. You can also have a dance off between the two mascots. For the dance competition, pick the winner based on the loudness of the crowd's applause.
- School spirit is promoted a lot during homecoming activities. During halftime, have the cheerleaders lead the crowd in renditions of popular school songs. The cheerleaders can lead the crowd in singing the school's fight song, alma mater song and other songs that are unique to the school. So that the crowd will know all of the words to the songs, have the cheerleaders hold up posters with the lyrics written on them.
