CHANTS
Chanting and singing are integral parts of our match-day support. We strive to sing and yell in a unified manner both to give the Hoops support and throw off the opposing club's players. That said, we've listed some of the chants we use below so you can familiarize yourself with them prior to a match.
Some of these chants did not originate with us, but we proudly carry on their traditions (some with a few of our own personalized tweaks).
