I eat dinner in the car.
The kids do homework in the car.
I have zero time for any other activity.
My SUV is packed to the brim with gear.
That SUV is no longer a car but a portable locker room.
The floorboards are covered in baseball dirt and football mud.
I live in yoga pants and fun, quotable t-shirts.
I no longer carry a purse, but a backpack.
My diet consists of nachos, M&M’s and pretzels.
I have Tylenol, ice packs and bandaids at all times.
The answer to “What are you doing this weekend?” is always the same. SPORTS.
I have a custom Yeti tumblr filled with ice water at all times.
I buy my laundry detergent in bulk at Costco.
Also Spray ‘n Wash.
I have a top of line folding chair with sturdy powder-coated steel and a lifetime warranty.
As prepared as I am, there’s always something I forgot.
But the thing that was forgot was never for the player, it’s always for me.
My blanket, my raincoat, my water bottle…
I fell asleep behind my sunglasses at a baseball game once.
I’m constantly asking someone next to me, “What’s the score?”
Tell me below, are you a sports mom??

I was, and now I miss it beyond belief. Empty nester and I love this phase of our lives but I’d be a sports mom forever if I could. Enjoy it, it will be over before you know.
Keele says
I’m a sports mom too. I have three boys ages 16, 13, and 10. They’re each in a sport at all times and the youngest is in piano lessons & cub scouts on top of a sport! Life gets pretty crazy & I totally feel ya on how it consumes your life. LOL. But I also love every crazy, stinky, messy minute of it! I’m sure we will all miss it when they’re grown. Hang in there & may your energy never run out LOL.
Edith says
I was a sportsmom to my 3 kids, from pre-k to collegiate sports. Soccer, baseball, softball, tennis, football, basketball, track and field, volleyball, travel volleyball team, cheerleading, gymnastics, jazz, tap, Ballet and collegiate volleyball. It was crazy at times but I wouldn’t change anything. Priceless memories to last a lifetime and lots of pictures and film. Now as an empty nester …I am having sportsmom withdrawals. Missing it!
Sarah says
Totally a sports mom….. All genres from 💜 dance to ⚾️softball to🏈 football to🔫 trap shooting.
I love it all! I will be sad when it’s all over.
Stephanie says
Yes, I am a sports mom. I have 3 kids who play multiple sports and often times at the same time! We are year round, so if I’m not home, you will find me at a court, field or track. My daughter is 10 and plays basketball, softball (regular season and traveling) and volleyball, also regular season and travel. My middle son is 13 and plays basketball and track and my oldest is 15 and plays football, basketball and track. I have learned to make crock pot meals in my vehicle as concession stand food becomes too much sometimes. I’m the mom with the first aide bag, snacks for everyone and always the best seat.

DOROTHY Le says
Most DEFINITELY a sports mom to 3 athletes and all my neighborhood kids I’ve adopted😁 I wouldn’t change it for ANYTHING
Brandi says
The best was when I messed the schedule up and had away vs home. Drove an hour and half to realize I was at the wrong rink (At 4am), and still made the first period at the RIGHT rink.
Kerry Smith says
I also really love sports and especially classic football. I recently found an excellent resource https://melbet.com with standings and results of sports matches. This interested me very much. I always thought of making money from my love for sports and now I have such a cool opportunity thanks to the Melbet site. I advise everyone to take a look to find out more.
Alicia Hursley says
I LOVE being a sports mom too. And the Yeti bottled constantly filled with ice water is my literal life saver haha One other thing I like to do as a sports mom is have a carpet cleaner out at the end of every summer season. Let’s face it, kids are going to bring in dirt, stains, and occasionally blood into your home and carpet. It’s a good way to refresh the home before the winter sports begin! Glad to see I have a community of sports moms here.
