Default Senior Gift Ideas/Decor Ideas

So my middle kid is a junior in high school this year - varsity soccer player and last year I learned that the junior parents take care of the senior gifts/senior night recognition. That means I will be one of the parents to be responsible for making the seniors' night great. It's a winter sport here, so I have some time...but would love ideas for either gifts to give the boys or decoration ideas for the night/locker room.

In years past they have done goody bags, with snacks and a pair of grip socks (sock issues its a funny but long story), I think one year they did a little frame.

I'm stuck because I want something the boys will appreciate/like, keeping cost within some reason (junior parents I'm sure all will pitch in but there are likely only 5 juniors this year on the team and I think 10-12 seniors) but not just a trinket

I will be watching this thread!
I joined a FB Group for Senior Parents and there are a ton of ideas. I also started a Pinterest Board for Senior ideas.

For my son's baseball team a couple years ago we printed these:

I think smart money gift ideas are a great idea. Who doesn't like receiving money?

My daughter is just doing this now for a slowpitch softball teammate. How they do it is take the # of seniors & then divide the rest of the team up so it's not just one person buying/making gifts. I think this year there are 3 teammates per senior. Some ideas that she has been tossing around are- favorite candy, candle, lotion, lip-gloss, someone made some cute bracelets for them too and a little jar of dirt from their home field with super cute printable tag on it, as well as bouquet of flowers and balloons. They have also made collage of photos from this season for each of the seniors & framed that too. I do feel like it's easier with girls, as they tend to like easy thoughtful gifts!
