I’m an avid sports mom. That means I love cheering on my kids and their teammates from the sidelines.
We move from sport to sport almost endlessly.
Practices. Games. Weekend tournaments. Team events.
Being a sports mom means being your kids’ biggest fan.
It also means I like to be prepared when it comes to youth sporting events. Beyond the basics (score my packing list and read what I take to weekend tournaments here), check out some gift ideas that your favorite sports mom will love!
I’m a huge fan of anything Sportz Moms makes. Her shop, owned and managed by a veteran sports mom, includes options for multiple sports. This is a bonus since my kids seem to bounce from season to season, and sport to sport! Use code SMETZ20 and you’ll earn 20% off your order.
PS, you’ll need it for all the cute stuff you add to your cart! Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
As my kids have gotten older and begun specializing in their chosen sports I love wearing these personalized necklaces with their photos engraved. You can opt to have their number or name engraved on the other side. I wear both kids charms on the same chain.
You can get sport and athlete specific with this necklace option, too. As you change seasons, you can update your jewelry with the current sport. This comes in handy for moms of multi sport athletes.
I always keep a good blanket in the car. It gets cold randomly at practice. Early mornings and late nights at the field are chilly. Perhaps you forgot your bleacher cushions and your sit bones need a rescue. You never know when you might need a blanket! These are cute, plus they can be sport or athlete specific.
If your vibe is ‘ball field hair, don’t care’ then a great hat might be for you! Early mornings can be tricky for sports moms, ahem, what is going on with these 8:00 am games?!?! Nothing a little dry shampoo and adorable hat can’t fix. These cute hats keep the sun off your face and support your favorite sport.
I threw in a neutral option too!
So, you’re rocking your kids’ team gear to the game, but you need some cute footwear to complete the ensemble. These sneakers are super comfy and I have several pairs that match various team colors. I love that they’re neutral, so I can sport them when I’m out and about, not at a game (but when is that really?!).
