This fall we started on a new basketball team and had loads of fun! The season went by quickly, and winter basketball is already in pre season, but to end the season, we picked up these cute sports fleece blankets on clearance at Target (can you believe they were only $3!!). A quick customization at midnight before the last game, we just threw in the kid’s name and numbers and passed them out at the tournament. They were a big hit! The boys used them right away on the ride home during their well deserved naps!

We played spring baseball this year and Jimmy Fund summer baseball. We decided to up our team spirit by handing out these cute baseball favors. Red plastic baseballs hats (Amazon), eye black (Amazon), Big League Chew – my son thinks grape is the best flavor – I tell him he’s entitled to his opinion :), and sunflower seeds. What would you add?

At the beginning of the season, we decided to take all the boys in our grade (which is only about 16) to a WooSox game with another friend – a joint party. After some back and forth, we decided to rent out the Shaw’s visitors deck. It was a private roped off area that was covered, so the rain didn’t bother us one bit. There were stools in front of the area where you could eat a bite and watch the visiting team’s pitcher warm up.

We had a buffet for the kids: hot dogs, hamburgers, French fries, chips, chocolate chip cookies etc. They had a ball.

As an added bonus, the kids were able to go onto the field, get their photo up on the jumbo-tron and then get to high five the players as they entered the field.

Another good option was to buy seats in the outfield – you can even rent a duck boat. The area was a little more open and we felt like it would have been harder to keep all of the boys in one place. Those tickets would have come with loaded value on their tickets, so all the guests could use the pre paid amount for drinks, food, or souvenirs.
