Light-Up LED Pom Poms
Metallic streamers with LEDs built into the pom, a rechargeable pack, and one remote that changes the whole team’s color at once.
$145 USD per pair
For cheer coaches and booster clubs planning senior night: our light-up pom poms switch the whole squad to school colours, or to white on each senior’s name, with one remote, and the seniors keep their pair as the gift. Team pricing is $120 a pair on 10 or more pairs.
What should happen on cheer senior night?
The one order that covers most of senior night is a squad set of light-up pom poms: the seniors perform with them in the lights-down routine, the underclassmen hold them lit for the walk-out tunnel, and the seniors keep their pair as the gift.
Most senior nights follow the same shape, and the coach’s job is to make each part feel like the seniors’ moment rather than a pause in the game:
- The walk-out. Each senior is announced and walks the track or the court with family, usually before kickoff or tip-off.
- The gift. A keepsake from the squad or booster club, handed over during the walk-out.
- The routine. A senior-led sideline or halftime routine.
- The photo. The whole squad with the seniors at the front, after the routine.
Each of those has a buying decision behind it, and they are cheaper and better when planned together.
What do coaches give seniors on senior night?
| Gift | What it costs the squad | Why seniors keep it |
|---|---|---|
| Light-up poms in school colours | $120 a pair at our team rate when ordered with a 10+ pair squad order | The poms they performed with on their last night |
| Framed photo or poster | Printing cost | A record of the night |
| Senior sash or bow | Low | Worn for the walk-out |
| Light-up face stickers for the family section | Per set | Families glow in the stands with them |
The pom gift works because the seniors use it twice: in the routine that night and as the keepsake after.
How do you stage a lights-down senior routine?
- Ask the stadium or gym staff early whether the lights can be dimmed for one song. Many venues control this from the press box or the scoreboard operator.
- Put the seniors at the front of the formation.
- Start in school colours, then switch every pom to white on the seniors’ moment with the remote.
- Keep the routine short and simple so it reads from the stands.
- Bring the lights back up for the walk-out or the photo.
How do you plan the senior night walk-out?
- Script the announcements with each senior’s name, years on the squad and future plans, and give it to the announcer in writing.
- Line families up early on the track or baseline.
- Have the underclassmen form a tunnel with lit poms for the seniors to walk through.
- Hand over the gift at the end of the tunnel.
- Get the photo before the squad goes back to the sideline.
What will senior night cost the squad?
If the squad is ordering light-up poms anyway, senior night is the moment to do it. At our team rate of $120 a pair on 10 or more pairs:
| Group | Pairs | Cost at the team rate |
|---|---|---|
| Squad of 12 (seniors keep theirs) | 12 | $1,440 |
| Squad of 16 | 16 | $1,920 |
| Squad of 20 | 20 | $2,400 |
Shipping is quoted with the order. Many booster clubs fund the seniors’ pairs as the senior gift and the squad budget covers the rest.
When should you order for senior night?
Work back from the date. Senior night is usually one of the last home games of the season, which means the order should be placed early in the season, not the week before. Give us the senior night date when you ask for a quote and we will tell you plainly what fits.
The same set then covers the playoff games and the banquet; see cheer banquet ideas.
Who does what on senior night?
| Role | Job on the night | Do it by |
|---|---|---|
| Head coach | Run of show, senior routine, cue sheet with the venue | Two weeks out |
| Booster club | Senior gifts, flowers, sashes | Order early in the season |
| Captains | Underclassmen tunnel, colour change on the remote | The week of |
| Announcer | Senior scripts read in order | Scripts delivered the day before |
| Families | On the track or baseline at the right time | Told the call time in advance |
| Photographer or parent volunteer | Walk-out and squad photos | Shot list agreed in advance |
Writing the roles down is what keeps senior night from turning into a scramble at the 40-yard line. The coach can then spend the night with the seniors instead of chasing details.
How do you request a quote for senior night?
Email or DM us with the squad size, the number of seniors, school colours and the senior night date. We make our light-up products ourselves and will tell you plainly what fits your date. See team orders for how a group order works.
