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 dance teams and squads in black, blue, maroon or purple with silver: our LED pom poms keep silver metallic streamers for the floodlight flash and glow white or any team colour by remote when the lights drop. Team pricing is $120 a pair on 10 or more pairs.
Which teams order silver pom poms?
| Team colours | What the poms carry |
|---|---|
| Silver and black | Silver streamers with white light; the uniform carries the black |
| Silver and blue | A split: blue light on one pom, white over silver on the other |
| Maroon or purple and silver | Silver streamers with the team colour in the light |
| Any colours | Silver as the neutral streamer under any light colour |
The San Antonio Spurs play in silver, black and white (source: San Antonio Spurs), and their Silver Dancers, first established in 1991, return for the 2026–27 season at select home games and community events (source: KSAT). Pro dance teams like that perform in an arena with lighting cues and lights-down moments, which is exactly where silver needs help.
Why does silver need light to shine?
A silver streamer is a mirror cut into strips: under floodlights it gives the brightest flash of any pom, but with the lights down it has nothing to reflect and goes grey, then dark. No LED glows silver, so our light-up set pairs silver streamers with white light, which reads as a bright, cool silver-white from the stands.
How does silver read under stadium lights, in a dark gym and on camera?
| Where you perform | Metallic silver | Light-up, white over silver |
|---|---|---|
| Daytime game | Bright and clean | Same streamers, same shine |
| Night game under floodlights | The strongest metallic flash | Flash plus glow |
| Arena with coloured lighting | Turns the colour of the lights | Holds the colour you set |
| Gym with the lights down | Grey to dark | Bright white, or any team colour |
| Phone video | Flares where light hits, dark between | Steady light between the flashes |

Silver streamers or coloured streamers: which should a light-up set use?
Our team-order metallic streamer colours are teal, orange, hot pink, purple, green, silver, red, blue, gold and white. Silver is on the list, and it is the most flexible choice:
- Silver streamers are neutral, so they sit with any colour the diodes are set to: team blue on game night, pink or lavender on a cause night, white for a holiday game.
- A coloured streamer is the better pick when one colour matters most in daylight, such as a gold or purple program at day games.
How do silver and black squads set up a split?
Black cannot be light, and black is not one of our streamer colours, so the uniform carries the black. The poms carry silver: silver streamers, white light. For a two-colour look, run a split with the second team colour in the light:
- Silver and blue: raised pom blue, low pom white over silver.
- Maroon and silver: raised pom deep red, low pom white over silver.
- Purple and silver: raised pom purple, low pom white over silver.
White is the brightest setting on the pom, so it will lead any split it is in. Put the team colour on the raised pom if that is the colour the crowd should read first.
Which nights call for silver?
| Night | What the poms do |
|---|---|
| Holiday or winter game | White light over silver streamers for a snow look |
| A 25th season or anniversary game | Silver for the silver anniversary |
| Brain cancer awareness, in May | Gray is the ribbon colour; no light shows gray, so white over silver is the closest |
| Every other cause night | Silver streamers stay neutral while the light switches to the cause colour |
The 25th anniversary is the silver anniversary (source: Wedding anniversary); the brain cancer ribbon colour and month are from the National Foundation for Cancer Research. For more theme nights at pro games, see theme night ideas for pro games.
How many silver pom poms does a dance team need?
One pair per performer plus two spares, ordered together so every pair matches. At our team rate of $120 a pair on 10 or more pairs:
| Group | Pairs | Cost at the team rate |
|---|---|---|
| Pro dance team of 16 | 18 | $2,160 |
| Pro dance team of 22 | 24 | $2,880 |
| College cheer and dance, 30 together | 32 | $3,840 |
One set covers silver for games, white for holiday nights and every cause colour by remote.
Who signs off on a pom order at a pro or college team?
- Dance team director: headcount, spares, colours and the split.
- Game presentation: the lights-down moments the poms have to work in.
- Promotions or partnerships: a presenting sponsor for a theme night that uses the poms.
- Finance: the purchase order and invoice.
Bring game presentation in early, so the poms can be written into the show’s colour cues.

Frequently asked questions
Do light-up pom poms come in silver?
Yes. Silver is one of our team-order metallic streamer colours, and the light can be white or any team colour by remote.
Can LED pom poms glow silver?
No light is silver. White light over silver streamers is the closest, and it reads as a bright silver-white from the stands.
What colours go with silver pom poms?
Black, blue, maroon and purple. Silver and black is the most searched pairing.
Why do silver poms look grey in a dark gym?
