The ‘My Cause My Cleats’ initiative will be in full flow this Sunday at the GEHA field.

As per the reports, the cheerleading team of the Kansas City Chiefs will be sporting colored pieces of rally towels to support the initiative. This is indeed a unique and powerful gesture from the cheering team. Let’s dive deep and get a detailed account of the same. 

Chiefs eye cheerleading glory via unique gesture

‘My Cause My Cleats’ initiative has been one of the age-old custom in the NFL. It requires players to sport footwear of their choice to garner interest in the charitable contributions and causes of significant value to them. Much like every year, this year too, the initiative will be on during the Sunday game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills. According to reports, the Chiefs’ players will be wearing customized footwear. However, their cheerleading team would also be a part of the initiative, as they will be carrying colored rally towels with them. 

Usually, the cheerleaders’ go-to color is red, but this Sunday, each of them will be sporting different shades to pay tribute to different aspects of charity. These include loss, joy, understanding, pain, and above all, hope. Several cheerleaders have reflected on incidents from their lives that had inspired them to support the cause. 

Different stories but one goal for all

Brooke, a member of the Chiefs’ cheering team, narrated the incident of her best friend suffering a sudden cardiac arrest. She stated that her 23-year-old friend did not have any physical complications whatsoever. Yet, when she collapsed from the arrest, immediate intervention was required. Luckily, a policeman trained in CPR saved the day for her. Now, Brooke wants her towel to represent the ones suffering from such unfortunate fates and has also stressed the importance of CPR training for everyone.

Jordan’s grandmother had been diagnosed with the deadly disease and Jordan will be sporting her towel to give hope to all such unfortunate patients. 

All in all, the Sunday match-up will surely transcend the on-field shenanigans. Irrespective of the result, one thing is for sure- it will be a win for humanity.
