Youth Soccer Gifts

We encourage the playing of games with other children.

Football Fans

"I AM at my usual position."

The trauma of losing.

"Did you know that when my mom played soccer, only the winner got a trophy?"

'I don't understand why you always put me in goal?!'

'Yes, Jenny, I know I'm always reminding the team to be good sports, but you really don't have to thank the ref after every call.'

"I will always cheer you on, but I will never 'Woo-hoo!' you."

"Remember, kids, it's not winning that matters, it's getting a clean urine sample that's important."

'I know what you're thinking, are those legal shoes.'

'OK, now let's switch places.'

"There will be a winning team and a losing team. Are you OK with that?"

"Gracie, I'm proud of you. Your team lost, but you tried your best and that's all that counts."

'I was up twice and got one hit, which gives me an lifetime average of 500!'

Futsal

'Nice Header, Lauren!'

"...and then while I was at soccer practice they moved house."

"Can we fast forward through the 7th inning stretch?"

"I've never been into the other team's end... what's it like?"

'...And remember' It's not whether your dads win or lose the fight in the stands. It's how you play the game.'

'Young players have a tendency to forget fundamentals over the winter.'

'I'm the new kid on the team. Where's my signing bonus?'

"Benjamin, we've discovered, is quite gifted at third base."

'I'm all the athletic support my son will ever need!'

"Would you knowingly cheat to be better at something just to make millions of dollars? Well would you? Son? ... Son?"

'Nice level swing, Billy. Just meet the ball. Don't try to kill it, Billy.'

'No, Billy, their first baseman is messing with your head. You won't go to hell for stealing second.'

'Not right now, Timmy. First we're going to work on fielding ground balls. Maybe later we can discuss collective bargaining.'

Sportsmanship
