They are my teammates and my friends
In the good times and the bad
Words are forgiven and injuries are healed
No matter what problems we have had

Loyalty, is important to be a friend
No matter what a person may say or do
We all make mistakes and have bad days
Expect no more from someone else, than what is expected from you

Pride in ourselves and in others
Each person is important in every way
Self-esteem and respect is the glue of our team
It is strived for every day 

True to ourselves we must ALWAYS be
Don't give in to what changes who you are
Because values instilled and qualities God given
Are more important than anything, by far

While we all do our best and strive to "win"
The word "winning" is what we must define
"Winning doesn't always mean bringing home the trophy
But maybe, just winning within our own minds

For if "winning" is the MOST important thing
As we reach the end of the day
Then what have we missed or sacrificed
In order to have it go our way                     

So cherish your time on the squad
It will be over before you can tell
But, don't worry when your time in uniform is done
Because in your heart you will always be a Rebel

I am proud to be a Rebel, part of this team
Whether present or in the past
To have practiced, competed, shared, cried, and laughedRebel memories will ALWAYS last
