There is another term used in the US. That is "booster". It may not be used exactly the way you present it. There are booster clubs in many schools. They support the school teams. I suppose that one could say, "I am a booster of the Newal High School football team".

I assume the OP intended to write "What team do you… (support etc)?

In Australia it can be "support", "go for", and especially in Australian Rules strongholds, "barrack".

Who do you barrack for?
The whole family barracks for St Kilda.

"Hear the barrackers a-shouting
As all good barrackers should…"
Collingwood club song, written in 1906.

'Barrack' means the opposite where I live. It's one of those words with meanings directly opposite each other with the addition of 'for'.

Yes, you certainly can't say "What team do you root for?" in AusE. "Support" seems to be a good all-round word.

Urban Dictionary: root esp. 5.
