Appreciation gifts for coaches?

[YepBrook]

I need some ideas for good appreciation gifts for my son's two coaches. He's homeschooled, but goes to a Phys. Ed. type 3-hour class on Mondays. I'd like to make/do something special for these great men, but I can't think of anything.

His last class is Monday so I'm thinking of this at the last minute, too. :p Any ideas? Have you done gifts for coaches before?

We do gifts for our kids' soccer coaches, but we do a group thing - usually a gift card to Dick's Sporting Goods or a VISA gift card. I've never done an individual gift. Sorry, not much help here :(

i did this cute printable from Tip Junkie for our soccer coach this past fall, coupled with small goodie bag & a $15 gift card from Dicks sporting goods ;]

Gift cards are super awesome - I know I love getting those from my skating students!

This would be cute... "We had a Ball with you this year"

I've done gum, sunscreen, chapstick, etc. in the past.

We do a group gift card to Dick's for the coaches.

This is something I did for teachers and therapists, but it would work for coaches, too. It held some homemade treats and a Target gift card. I've also done something similar filled with chocolates when I didn't have time to bake.
