2024 Sports Gift Guide
Our holiday sports gift guide is back this holiday season! Need gift ideas for the sports lovers in your family? We have ideas for kids, coaches, and even mom and dad. Check out what’s trending in sports this holiday season.
Holiday Gifts For Moms
Sports moms and dads are almost always on the go. No matter how many pick-ups and drop-offs parents do, the kids always come first. Help make mom and dad’s lives easier with these gifts:
1. Creative Outdoor Wagon
Make mom and dad’s life easier with this versatile wagon. It’s great for hauling the kids or sports gear when mom’s hands are full, it has multiple storage pockets and acts as a tabletop with cup holders when you need it. When you’re done, it folds down perfectly to store in your car.
2. Cooler Tote
Coolers are essential for every sports parent and a useful gift for sports mom. Some parents prefer coolers with wheels, but for those that don’t need to carry massive amounts of snacks or beverages, tote coolers are both stylish and less cumbersome to lug around.
3. Rechargeable Hand Warmers
For those who live in a cooler climate, rechargeable hand warmers are the best invention for sports parents. No need to worry about packing 10 packages of hand warmers, just plug these in and keep going.
4. Meal Delivery Service
A subscription to a meal or food delivery service is great for sports families that are always on the go. Mom and dad don’t always have time to cook dinner or go grocery shopping when all the kids have sports and after school activities at the same time. A meal delivery subscription can help on those busy nights. You can never go wrong with the gift of food!
Holiday Gifts for Coaches
1. Coach Bobblehead
Custom bobbleheads are a humorous and unique gift for coaches. They vary in cost but are very affordable when splitting it between a full team. Typically, all you need is a clear photo to send to the seller and you’ll have a big-headed replica of your coach in no time.
2. Personalized Whistle
The chirping of a new whistle is music to a coach’s ears. Personalize a whistle with their name or a simple thank you note. Coaches can never have too many whistles.
3. Ornaments or Signed Artwork
Ornaments are a classic holiday gift that can be hung year-round outside the holidays as well. A great alternative to an ornament is a plaque, frame, or similar item that the whole team can sign. This allows everyone to be involved and gives the coach a way to remember each player.
Holiday Gifts for Kids
1. Franklin 2-in-1 Batting tee
This tee is perfect for kids as they continue to learn the sport of baseball. The best part about the 2 in 1 tee is that it can transition to a hanging arm where the ball hangs in the air instead of sitting on a tee. This will help kids get used to seeing a ball in the air versus sitting on a tee. You can also find a softball version for the young female athletes who plan to transition to softball.
2. Nex Playground
This is a virtual option to keep the family active on a rainy day! Much like video games of the past such as the Nintendo Wii, the Nex Playground focuses on games that involve movement such as dancing and sports. This make for a fun way to keep kids of all ages moving even when they can’t get outside.
3. All Pro Passer
The All Pro Passer is an entertaining way for kids to learn routes in football and work on their hand-eye coordination. It’s also a fun way to play catch on their own. We’re secretly hoping they make one for adults too.
4. Silent basketball
The silent basketball is a great gift for kids of all ages. You don’t have to worry about screaming, “No balls in the house!” with this one. It’s made of foam, so it bounces silently and is less likely to break fragile objects nearby. It also comes in different sizes like a real basketball.
5. Tickets to a Game
Experiences make awesome gifts for parents and kids. Spend time with your kids at a local sporting event whether it be professional, college, minor leagues, or simply recreational. Don’t forget that women’s sports are currently booming, see if there’s a new women’s sports league near you for a totally new experience.
BONUS:
