Spirit Squads

Cheerleaders
The Big Red cheerleading squad cheers for all home football games, selected away football game, and home men's basketball contests. The squad also makes regular appearances representing the University at alumni, athletic, charitable and public relations activities.

Marching Band
"The only REAL marching band in the Ivy League," the Big Red Marching Band is the largest fully student-run organization in the Ivy League. It is larger, by far, than any of the other Ivy Bands. The membership is generally over 200 people. The BRMB performs at all home and most Ivy League away games 

Pep Band
The Cornell pep band is one of the most fabled in all of college hockey, but it also supports men's lacrosse, men's basketball, sprint football, women's hockey, women's lacrosse, men's soccer, women's soccer, and field hockey. You may have also seen them at non-sporting events, like pep rallies, dedications, and welcoming ceremonies.
