What's the nicest Team Mom gift that you've ever received (or seen)? I'm in charge of getting the gift this year, and I'd like to do something different than a bouquet of flowers, which is what they typically get. I have no 'craft-type' skills, but I'm a great delegator. Any suggestions? Thanks.

How about tickets to a pro game ... if there's a city and team close by...that she might like to watch...

of course...assuming she likes to attend...

OR

if she has son's playing in the summer...you could get her a new lawn chair/umbrella combo...with a tote bag...embroidered with a nice saying that she would identify with...

We really haven't had team mom gifts..good idea though

I was never a team Mom: I was a coach, and I got two of the all-time best save-them-in-case-of-fire presents ever.

One was a quilt -- the team Mom gave each of the players a quilt square, and they made their own decorated 'thank you's'. (That even gives me written proof that I taught a young man currently pitching at a prominent D1 to pitch!) She then sewed the quilt together, and embroidered the team name and dates on the reverse.

The other was a large, beautifully framed photograph of my son pitching with an overlay of me coaching superimposed to the side, with a brass plaque inscribed with my favorite Satchel Paige quote: "Just throw strikes, home plate don't move".

What wonderful memories....
