Soccer Theme Party Ideas for Your Little Player's Birthday Party


Soccer is one of the most popular sports played across the globe. Both adults as well as kids are crazy about this game. If you have a young child who is suffering from soccer fever and aspires to become Freddy Adu or Jerzy Altidore, a soccer theme party will be the best way to celebrate his special day. Here are some useful ideas to plan a sports theme party.

Invitations

  • This is a very popular party theme; therefore, you can easily get themed invitation cards at any party supplies store or buy them online.

  • Buy some inflatable soccer balls, inflate them, and write your party details using a permanent marker pen. Once you have written all the details including the RSVP, deflate it and pack it in a transparent pouch. Include a note inside it, asking the invitees to blow-up the ball. The football fans will be glad to get an invitation for their favorite theme party along with a soccer ball to play.

  • Request the guests to come dressed up in their uniforms.

Party decoration:

  • Sports parties demand an outside venue. Plan your party at a soccer field or an open park. If you don't want to rent those places, organize the party in your backyard.

  • Make every effort to convert your venue into a soccer field. Set up soccer goals at either end of the party area.

  • At the entrance, place a large soccer player cutout to greet the guests as well as increase their excitement level.

  • Arrange a face painting activity for them so that they can get more involved in the theme.

  • Soccer birthday party supplies such as tableware, table cover, balloons, party hats, blowouts, etc. will help you set the party mood.

  • Find out if your nearby bakery can bake a theme cake for your party; or else, get a green colored cake and decorate it with soccer theme candles.

Party food:

  • You can have hot dogs, nachos, pizzas, chips, popcorn, chicken nuggets, and anything that is usually available at a stadium.

  • Give each dish a creative name or an appealing introduction such as 'the breakaway cupcakes' or 'get energy from these cupcakes for heading the ball'.

  • Decorate round sugar cookies with black and white frosting to resemble soccer balls.

Party games:

  • Make goals in your backyard or the venue you have rented by using cones. Line up the kids in front of it and let them score their best.

  • Ask the kids to keep the ball in the air as long as they can, using their heads, feet, knees, etc.

  • If your guests are too young to have such difficult games, have some simple activities such as a soccer theme pull string pi簽ata, coloring a ball, etc.

Party favors:

For small kids, you can use candies, mini soccer balls, stickers, theme pencils, etc. to fill the loot bags. Whistles, soccer themed key chains, sports headbands, soccer logo printed t-shirts, etc. are good options for kids above 5 years.

Set the kids loose so that they can have a great time at your child's soccer party.
