It’s that time of year. Thanksgiving meals are behind us, and Christmas trees are illuminating houses around the world. So, to provide a little help during this final stretch, In the Game would like to give our take on some popular athletic gifts that can be used to fill any extra space under the tree. Your student-athlete will thank you!
Spikeball Game Set
Spikeball is a game that is taking the world by storm. Typically played with four players (in a two-on-two matchup), Spikeball includes the use of a small trampoline-like object with string netting and a small bouncing ball (with a 12-inch circumference). With rules similar to volleyball, the game is sure to keep your student-athlete (or any interested players) busy and active over the winter months!
Athletic Socks
Let’s face it. At some point, every young student-athlete envisions themselves as their favorite collegiate or professional athlete. Regardless of sport, they enjoy being decorated in the likeness of the people they admire and emulate, down to the smallest details. As of the 2015-2016 NBA season, the league has partnered with Stance Socks and now markets team-specific and designer athletic socks for players. Many student-athletes are already wearing unique decorative socks in games. These are perfect stocking stuffers for the athlete in your life!
