The New Orleans Saints have themselves a new cheer team and they need Saints fans’ help naming the new team.
Over the summer, the Saints put out a casting call seeking dancers, cheerleaders, and stunt specialists.
The team’s gameday responsibilities will be wide-ranging. Beyond providing entertainment in Champions Square and the stadium, they will also run flags, assist with contests and directly engage with Saints fans throughout the game experience. Previously these roles were divided between the Saintsations dance team, Black & Gold Patrol engagement team, and other gameday staff.
“We have made it our priority to create the greatest fan experience in the NFL and believe that evolving our entertainment and engagement teams into the Saints Cheer Team will keep us on the leading edge of game entertainment throughout the league,” said Saints president Dennis Lauscha. "Our gameday experience is inspired by our fans and built upon the natural passion they have for their team and city.”
Saints fans can submit their team name ideas at https://www.neworleanssaints.com/cheerleaders/vote/.
Name suggestions will be accepted today until Friday, October 8th, at 5:00 p.m.
