Sports Team Party

Whether or not the kids won the big game, having a party for your sports team can be a lot of fun.

When and where are you going to hold the party? If the team plays at a park, you might be able to hold your party at the same park right after the game. This can make things simpler since everyone is already there. On the other hand, the kids and adults are likely to be tired after the game, so you might decide you want to hold the party at a different time or at a location where you can have someone else do most of the work.

If you are holding the party at a park or another location with some space, you could consider getting inflatables or games for your event. Some fun options include football games, the Full Court Press basketball game, Batter Up baseball game, Soccer Fever soccer game, the rock climbing wall, Putting Challenge golf, or mini golf.

Pizza is a popular choice for food after a game because it is easy. Pizza can be picked up or delivered for events, or to make things really simple you can have your party at the pizza place. Many pizza places offer large tables or party rooms, and some also have arcades and other entertainment.

Another simple and popular food options is sub sandwiches. You can get large sandwiches and cut them up to a crowd. If you want to have a barbecue, hamburgers and chicken breasts. If you are having a picnic, consider making it pot luck so everyone contributes to the food. You can get a large sheet cake or cookies for desert or if your party is not at meal time, that just serve a cake or cookies. Ice cream parlors are popular stops for small team celebrations. If you want to have ice cream at the park, you can rent a soft serve ice cream machine. Whatever food you decide to serve, don’t forget to bring drinks as sports players are bound to be thirsty after a game.

Pick out sports themed table clothes, plates, balloons, and other items at your local party or dollar store. If you know who you are giving them too, the party might be a good place to give out end of season certificates and awards as well. You can pick up inexpensive certificates and awards or make your own. If the team includes younger athletes, be sure not to leave anyone out. This might also be a good time to take team photos.

Whatever you decide to do, sports team parties can be a lot of fun. After all, when you have a party everyone is a winner!
