I guess the other potential problem is people in the pits that don't belong there. We had an issue one year with a little brother taking apart an attachment that the kids couldn't put back together fast enough when they saw what had happened. That needs to be made clear to any fans!
We do it every year. Siblings wear our shirts, parents wear it. We
did it at the VADC Championship tournament for the past 2 years. No one
has told us otherwise. We did have a special sticker on the team
member's shirts that had their name and our team number. The "fan club"
did not.
Only down side I see would be if someone in the "fan club"
were to act poorly. That might reflect on your team as a whole.

to or have run. I can't imagine why this would be an issue.

had heard non-team members (ie. parents coming along to help but who
aren't really coaches or official members) shouldn't wear the team
shirts. If anything, I thought a big showing would be a positive (and
would make everyone easy to spot while walking around). Can someone give
me more info on this? Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE or CHANGE your settings,
