Cheerleading


As Keio Senior High School is one of the integrated schools established by Keio University (Keio University calls its group schools as “integrated schools” rather than an “affiliated schools” because it values a spirit of Independence and Self-Respect), most students go on to Keio University after graduation. Keio University has inherited the “Source of Honorable Character and Model of Wisdom and Virtue” (character building through study) and “Independence and Self-Respect” (independence of mind and body and respect for self and others) to produce leaders for the entire society (Keio University's purpose). A highly refined form of cheering has been established in the school through its history.
"Young Blood", "Titan," "Sirius," "Raging fire," and "Dash Keio" are some of the songs sung during the cheerleading.
The following is a list of the songs used in the cheerleading of the Japanese High School Baseball Championship event in the summer of 2023, when the team won the championship for the first time in 107 years. Basically, the songs are performed in this order.
The usual songs such as “We are the Champion” and “Blue Sky Keio” are omitted from this tournament's cheerleading.




= The inning song

=
List of songs played at the beginning of each round.
1st inning - “Young Blood"
2nd inning - “Fanfare Sui” (commemorative song of the 105th convention)
3rd inning - “Under the Tricolor School Flag" (Tricolor Flag, which color is blue, red and blue is the school flag of Keio University and its integrated schools.)
4th inning - “A picture drew in the heart" (This song is performed by the baton team(Unicorns) of Keio Girls Senior High School and is called the cheerleading song. The Keio University cheerleading team (Majorettes) performs two different songs in the Saturday games and the Sunday game (and later on if a game is carried over to Monday or later due to a tie or rain postponement since the Tokyo Big 6 University Baseball League of which Keio University belongs uses a point system) each in the spring and autumn league games, but the baton team of Keio Girls Senior High School only performs “A picture drew in the heart” as their repertoire.)
5th inning - “Young Blood”
6th inning - “Mr. Moribayashi is Not Enough” (To further increase the enthusiasm of the cheering crowd after intermission, the students of the baseball team arranges the trending “Not Enough Excitement” call to suit coach Takahiko Moribayashi. Immediately after, they enter “Sirius”)
7th inning - “Young Blood”
8th inning - “Fanfare Sui”
9th inning - “Young Blood"

= March Songs

=
1. “Sirius,” “Antares,” “Kong-ming"
2. “Animal,” “Soleil,” “Gale,” “Patriot” (Each of the songs in 2 may be repeated by itself without 1, in which case the call is made between songs. Note that the call for “Gale” is “Keio we wanna get a chance!” at Keio Senior High School as is the same as the call for “Phoenix” used at Keio university, which is different from the call of ”KEIO Keio! KEIO Keio!" used in the Keio university's “Gale”).
In march songs, 1 and 2 are repeated alternately and connected to the connection.
"Raging fire"
It is an original song of Keio Senior High School and is played during the most exciting scenes in the game. It corresponds to Keio University's “Vermilion Bird”.




= Connection

=
"Arabian Connection” and "Spanish Connection"
When the person in charge of monitoring the game situation decides that the game has entered a scoring opportunity, this “connection” songs are used to connect from the march songs to “Theme of Assault,” “Call Keio,” and “Dash Keio.”
↓




= “Theme of Assault”

=
Sometimes repeated by itself.
↓




= “Call Keio"

=
↓




= "Dash Keio"

=
Unless a point is scored or the inning changes, "Dash Keio" is repeated without returning to the march songs (this is called "endless dash"). If this "Dash Keio" continues for a while, it is repeated again with "Call Keio" to boost the enthusiasm in the cheering section.




= "Young blood" (when scoring)

=
It is a honorable tradition at Keio University to sing "Young Blood" in unison as all of the members of Keio Senior High School, Keio University, its integrated schools and its alumni shares the joy of scoring a goal, shoulder to shoulder. The tempo of the song is often faster than that of the inning song, "Young Blood."




= "The School Song of Keio University"

=
The School Song of Keio University is played by Keio University, Keio Senior High School, and Keio Girls Senior High School Wagner Society Orchestra when the team wins the game.
The cheerleading of these games are led by the "Three teams in charge of Cheerleading" (the Cheerleading Team, the Brass Band Team, and the Baton Team(Unicorns) of Keio Girls Senior High School). At Keio University, Cheerleading Team (consisting of the Cheerleading Team(Majorettes), Brass Band Team and various tools) plays the role of the "Three teams in charge of Cheerleading" on its own.
