Planning this party is stressful, complicated, and consumes time. This article contains tips that will help ease the stress.
Involve other activities
Your party should involve other activities that encourage teamwork. You can choose activities like; dress up the relay, parents vs. Kids, Yankee gift swap, design your escape, fantastic fan contest, beach ball, volleyball, hula hoop soccer, obstacles course challenge races, sports-themed scavenger hunt, sports trivia, pin the football on the goal, wacky knockout. These fun games aim at boosting your athlete’s skills outside the field or court and to help them blow off steam.
Location
Every event or party needs a perfect location. Using parents house or restaurants could get boring. Think outside the box and make this Season wrap-up party an eventful one.
Outdoor locations are great; you could host a cookout since you’ll be hosting children who love to run around. Trampoline park is another cool location, they offer party rooms that you could rent.
You could use a parking lot or the field where your team practice. From any of the outdoor options, you can set up tables for food and still have enough space for outdoor games. If you feel an indoor event is a better option, then go for community centers, gymnasiums, YMCA, training centers or large bowling alleys.
Food
Season wrap-up party catering is better handled by professionals because you will be hosting many guests; parents, and siblings would be tagged along. So there has to be enough food for everybody.
You can start by taking note of the children’s favorite food. It would be cool if the food match with the teams color, the team’s color can be used as a guide, colored dips and colorful veggie will be useful. Ice cream bars and other desserts should also be on the menu. A celebratory cake would also add color to the event.
The Coach
The coach certainly played a vital role in making the season successful, his efforts should also be acknowledged, gifting him either a Coaching wisdom book, customized T-shirts, video camera, certificate, an award or a customized Jersey is a good idea.
Appreciation
You can seize this opportunity to reward hard-working athletes and the coach. Your sponsors shouldn’t be left out.
