Birthday Party Ideas for Sports Lovers - Part 2

So how you liked my previous post? Guess that have served your purpose and trimmed down your confusion a little bit as to how you can make a good arrangement for a sports birthday party. As I have promised, I’m back again with some more winning ideas on birthday parties for sports lovers. This time, I’m going write on some sports themes and activities that would add extra fun to your sports birthday party! Browse through these ideas which will heap you up with some tips that are all the rage for a sports birthday.

If your party is a general sports theme, you can combine baseball, basketball, football, soccer, tennis to use with these games. If you are focusing on one sport then use the appropriate balls and games. The children will already be in teams designated by their shirts. Each team will participate in the activities and gather points. The players from the winning team will receive a special certificate or ribbon. You may want to consider giving awards for different categories, allowing all players to be winners.

If you want to introduce a modified basketball in your sports birthday party as a birthday theme, shoot hoops with a clean garbage can, or laundry basket (one for each team). Mark and "X" on the ground or floor where the players will stand. Each team will have their own "Hoop" and "X". They try to get as many baskets within a designated period of time as they can by taking turns. Form a line. The first player shoots then goes to the back of the line. The next player shoots and so on.

Want some ideas about the sports birthday cake types? Here you go! To make a baseball cap birthday cake use a Wilton sphere cake form (craft store) and an 8 inch round pan. Red shoestring licorice will be the stripes and letter. A red M&M will be your button on the top. This cake may not serve enough for your party. So I suggest adding baseball cupcakes to serve as well. Another cake can be a football or soccer cake. Frost a sheet cake with green frosting. Use white decorating frosting to make yard lines. Add football figurines to the top. This can also be adapted to a soccer cake.

The thing about sports themes is that activities naturally follow. If classmates show up in force, prepare for a spirited game of baseball (or Whiffleball might be safer), touch football, or a little 3 on 3 tournament on the hoop in the driveway. With many parties being open houses held outdoors, these kinds of games make perfect sense.

Sports Party Favors consist of stickers, tattoos, candy, mini toys, key chains, loot bags, yo-yos, hats, blowouts, sunglasses, jewelry, flags and more! Sports trivia and sports team party games can be wild at a Sports theme party. Sports Piñatas for Sports plus the piñata filler and the blindfold mask and bat to match. Make your event festive with a piñata decoration. You can go in for sports party supplies and for this internet is the best resource. There are a huge amount of sites that supply sports party materials which includes paper plates, table clothes, napkins, invitations, thank you notes, balloons, plastic ware, noise makers, loot bags, toys, inflatable, hats, glow sticks and many more. Choose some feet-tapping music if your guests are music bug too along with a sports lover. A combination of music and sports will just make the party absolutely hip-hopping and a great bash to be cherished for a long time.
