Spirit Flags Details
Motivate the crowd at your next sporting event with spirit flags from Vispronet! We craft these high-quality field runner flags from premium outdoor flag polyester. We print them using dye sublimation for brilliant, full-color graphics that are scratch and fade-resistant.
We offer multiple sizes to choose from, as well as an optional pole set for quick setup and easy display. Each pole set comes with a nylon carry bag for hassle-free travel and storage.
What Are Spirit Flags?
Spirit flags are oversized flags flown during sporting events like football games, cheerleading competitions, and pep rallies. These flags feature a pre-sewn vertical pole pocket for attaching the flag to a handheld pole.
Spirit flags, or cheer flags, fly across the field during introductions, halftime shows, and timeouts. Use them for an array of different sports during high school, college, and professional games. These flags offer cheer teams an excellent way to pump up the home crowd and inspire competing athletes.
We craft out spirit flags from our premium outdoor flag polyester. This durable material is tear-resistant, wrinkle-resistant, and boasts excellent color reproduction. The fabric is perfect for indoor and outdoor use and is safe for all-season display. Our flag polyester is lightweight and sheds water quickly, making it suitable for wet or rainy weather conditions.
We print our cheer flags using dye sublimation. This cutting-edge printing technique produces vibrant, full-color graphics that are sure to grab the attention of the crowd. Dye sublimated flags are also more resistant to fading compared to other printing methods. Our spirit flags are safe for machine wash, allowing for easy cleaning and a longer product life.
If you do not have the hardware to display your spirit flag, we offer a 13ft adjustable pole set. This hardware is compatible with multiple flag sizes. These durable aluminum pole sets are easy to assemble.
Aluminum poles are corrosion-resistant, long-lasting, and are easy to maintain. Best of all, aluminum poles are lightweight – making it easy to run with the cheer flags across the field. Each pole set comes with a nylon carry bag for easy travel and secure storage.

Choose Your Printing Style
Select between single-reverse and double-sided printing options. See a full explanation of each printing style in the content below.
Easy Setup & Use
Cheer flags come finished with pre-sewn pole pockets for an easy assembly process that can be completed in minutes, with no tools required.
We print single-reverse spirit flags on one side and the ink the bleeds through to create a reverse image on the opposite side. Single-reverse flags are easy to see from the sidelines and offer a budget-friendly way to showcase your custom design to the crowd. This style is not completely opaque but is more lightweight and flies better compared to double-sided prints when running across a playing field.
Double-sided spirit flags are best for applications where you need the print to be clearly visible from both sides of the flag. Double-sided printing creates deeper, more vibrant colors and allows for a different design on each side of the flag.
We sew two pieces of polyester together with a liner in between to block out any light. Double-sided field runner flags showcase your custom design with richer, more colorful graphics. They also add significant weight to the flag, and do no fly as well as single-reverse flags.
We offer our flags with four standard sizes to choose from: 3ft x 5ft, 4ft x 6ft, 5ft x 8ft, and 6ft x 10ft. All sizes are easy to spot from the sidelines or stands with the largest sizes being the most effective for stadiums and expanded fields.
Even though spirit flags are large, they are easy to run with because of the lightweight polyester and hardware. The optional handheld pole set has four 39-inch pole segments and is adjustable so you can find the perfect custom size that fits your flag.
Lay the spirit flag out on a flat surface. Be sure to avoid any surfaces with sharp corners or poking objects that could damage the polyester material.
Assemble the handheld pole by connecting the sections together using the push buttons on the male and female ends. Make sure the poles are secure before moving to the next step.
Gently insert the assembled aluminum pole into the cheer flag’s pole pocket. Make sure to completely insert the pole before moving to the next step.
Secure the flag to the pole by connecting the flag’s loop to the plastic hook located on the pole. Securing the flag to the pole ensures the flag will stay in place and not fly off during windy weather.
Hold the flagpole upright and you are ready for on-field display! Because the flag secures to the pole with a loop, the flag will stay in place until you are ready to remove it.
Cheer Flags for Every Sports Team
Showcasing spirit flags during sports games and events is the perfect way to energize the crowd and exhibit school spirit. These flags offer an excellent way to boost morale of the players and fans. Use cheer flags for an array of sports-related functions ranging from pep rallies to on-field display during games.
Cheerleading Flags for Competition
Cheerleading teams commonly use these flags for games and competitions. Whether they are on the sidelines or at competitions, spirit flags provide an excellent way to attract the crowd.
Spirit Flags for Football
One of the most popular applications for these flags is football games. Use cheer flags during player introductions, throughout the halftime show, during timeouts, or in the band. Cheerleaders on the sidelines showcase these flags during the game to hype up the crowd.
Cheer Flags for Indoor Sports & Events
These custom flags aren’t just for outdoor sports like football! Use spirit flags for multiple indoor sports like basketball, volleyball, indoor soccer, boxing, and more. Also showcase these flags at indoor pep rallies to excite and rally the crowd into a frenzy before a game.
Cleaning your custom spirit flags is a quick and easy process and a great way to extend the life of your flag. If there are blemishes from grass or soil, wipe them away with a warm soapy cloth. To clean your flags using a washing machine, follow the guidelines listed below.
- Machine wash the flags using the gentle cycle and cold water
- Use a mild, color-safe detergent and a color catcher (Do not use bleach)
- Hang the flag up to air dry for best results (Do not use a high heat dryer)

What is the difference between “spirit flags”, “cheer flags”, and “field runner flags”?
This is a popular question. Each of these terms describes the same product. They refer to large team flags for cheering at sporting events like football and basketball games.
How are the spirit flags printed?
We print our field runner flags using dye sublimation. This cutting edge printing technique produces high-resolution, full-color graphics that are scratch-resistant and fade-resistant. Dye sublimated flags are machine washable for long-term use and display.
What material are the flags made of?
We print our flags using dye sublimation on our outdoor flag polyester material. This lightweight fabric is UV-resistant and tear-resistant.

For a more thorough cleaning, simply throw the flags into a washing machine using the gentle cycle with warm water. Hang dry for best results.
How should I store my spirit flag?
First, make sure the flag is clean and fully dried before storing. Storing a wet flag may result in mold growth. Next, fold the flag and place it into a storage container to keep it protected from any sharp objects. Next, place the storage box on a shelf in a dark and dry environment like a closet.
