One of the most important parts of attending a game, a match, being involved in any sport, is the cheering. From the crowd, the bench or the sidelines, cheering is what gives the game life and it makes everything more fun. 

If there is one thing I've learned with these games is that cheering is so much fun and can be even better if you are open to rooting for people from other places. As I sat watching the volleyball match between France and Italy, none of which are my country, I realized that I can cheer just for anybody. And when I do, is just as fun and maybe, it made someone's game and day.
