What Mascots does

Mascots operates as the cheerleading division of American Football Verein Marburg Mercenaries e.V., a registered non-profit sports association (eingetragener Verein) founded in 2002 and headquartered in Marburg, Hesse, Germany. The organization runs four distinct performance teams — MMC Danceteam (Cheerdance, age 16+), MMC Peewees "Mighty Sparks" (Cheerleading, age 5+), MMC Juniors "Sparkly Flames" (Cheerleading, ages 12-16), and MMC Seniors "Burning Aces" (Cheerleading, age 16+) — that train year-round in stunts, jumps, tumbling, and dance to prepare for championship competitions.

The program's primary activity is supporting the parent club's American football team, the Marburg Mercenaries, by performing on the sideline at home games throughout the football season to drive crowd engagement and team spirit. Beyond football support, the teams also perform at regional external events including sport events, openings, weddings, and similar celebratory occasions. Training cadence varies by team, ranging from once per week (Danceteam) to two-to-three times per week (Seniors).

Mascots does not operate as a commercial technology or product business. It has no proprietary software, no paid customer base, no disclosed revenue, and no external investors. The entity is member-supported within a German non-profit association structure, with 6 employees and a regional operating geography limited to Marburg. Marketing is conducted through the parent club's official website (mercenaries.de) and associated social media channels.
