So, you're the Team Mom, don't forget to Thank Your Coach!

Along with your normal duties of making sure everyone has their medical release form signed, coordinating snacks, drinks and transportation for the games, you're also responsible for organizing a Coach's Thank You gift at the end of the season. I'm a mom of three boys, so I've had 'some' experience here. Coaches don't need yet another plaque or mug or signed ball - they've got plenty of that stuff. Trust me, they either want a gift card from the local sports store or from their favorite restaurant.

So when it's time to tell him (or her!) thanks for teaching your kids, for being their role model and mentor - rally up people, be a good sport, let 'em know you appreciate their time and committment.

I know it's a tough time, the economy is in the tank and we're all feeling the pinch, but, if 15 parents pitch in $5.00 each, that's a nice gift.

And when you're ready to organize that group gift, check out from: Everyone it'll take the hassle out of asking, collecting, buying, wrapping and sending the gift - how cool is that?!?
