ralliers
Those who regroup
Ralliers are people who rally—those who come together for a common cause, recover from setback, or work to revive flagging spirits or momentum.
The word appears most often in political and social contexts: The ralliers gathered outside city hall to demand change.
Someone who helps others regain confidence or energy might be called a rallier: She was the team's chief rallier after the loss.
