Stock Your Car For Fall Sports

If you have a kid that plays a fall sport, then you can expect to spend some time outside for practices and games. So you need to be prepared! But what exactly do you need to have in your car? From being prepared for all types of weather, to a few items that will make practice and game time a little easier on your, here's what every sports parent needs to keep in their car all season long.

 

1.       Picnic Blanket with a Waterproof Side - Never worry you won't have a seat with your own blanket. Plus the waterproof side will make sure you and your family stay dry.

2.       Chairs - Folding chairs or stadium seats will make game watching a whole lot easier on everyone. Be sure grab the kind that come in their own storage bag. This way you can leave them in your car and not worry they are being damaged.

3.       Weather Gear - Don't let a surprise rain or a few gusts of cold air ruin your day at the soccer field. Keep extra layers and clothes for wet and cold weather in your car all the time. Be sure to add a few pairs of sunglasses too! Make sure to pack enough for your player as well. You don't want them riding home cold and wet!

4.       Water, Sports Drinks and Snacks - Everyone needs to stay hydrated, your players and you! Don't forget to take water for those hot days on the soccer field. Keeping snacks on hand will help with younger siblings who are hungry or tired of a long soccer game. If you have a plastic container, everything will fit in your truck and you won't have to worry anything is rolling around or getting smashed.

5.       Folding Wagon - If you've got younger kids, don't waste your time with strollers! Wagons help you easily move your kids from car to field plus it gives them a small place to play while their siblings are on the field. The wagon also comes in handy if you have to cart equipment too.
