Elephants are big, powerful and generally unstoppable beasts. This makes an elephant mascot a great option to remind both your school’s athletes and their opponents that your team is a force to be reckoned with.
Shark mascot costume

6. A shark in a home uniform

When a person invades the territory of a shark, the shark usually wins. As such, a shark mascot is ideal for home games when you want to remind the opposing school that they are in your house, and winning against your team won’t come easily.

Okay, so your phoenix mascot shouldn’t really be on fire. But a phoenix mascot with some flame-like effects is a great way to use the symbolism of the legendary bird: no matter how hard things get, we will come back even better than ever.

Gladiators were known for their intensity and ferocity, so a gladiator mascot is sure to get the crowd excited as soon as he enters the gym or field.

Zeus is a mighty being who wreaks havoc on those who oppose him. Plus, his lightning bolt would be a great prop to symbolize lightning striking every time your team scored.
Regardless of which animal, human, or object you choose for your school’s mascot, make sure that it is completely unique!
