Coaching Gifts
I first had the idea and began making these types of plaques because my son is a big baseball player and over the years he has had great coaches. I found that at the end of the season the parents would often pass the hat and chip in for a gift card or two. One year I decided to make something that would be a little more memorable than a gift card. I put together the I love Baseball plaque and then had all of the boys on the team sign their names and put their uniform numbers on it. We also put on the coach's name and the year. The coaches loved it and commented that it was something special to help them remember the season. How do you put a price on the handwriting of 9 year olds? Writing a personal note or dating the plaques on the back with a Sharpie is something I always encourage people to do when they give any plaque as a gift. These types of plaques are also great stocking stuffers or graduation presents for seniors as they close out their athletic careers.
