Baseball Trophies – The end of the season celebration

I know, I know…as I am writing this, it baseball season hasn’t even started.  New trophies and awards haven’t been released by the manufacturers.  We are in the baseball off-season.  With that being said, I want to take the opportunity to stress the psychological importance of baseball trophies to kids.
Over the years, I get feedback from customers both for and against giving baseball trophies.  I understand that multi-sport kids start accumulating trophies and the power of recognizing their accomplishments gets diluted over time.  While the collection of trophies becomes important to these kids, the impact of receiving a trophy is felt most by beginners.  Using my two girls as an example, they are not well exposed to team sports.  This year, my youngest daughter will likely play t-ball.  Due to her interest (or lack thereof), this may be her only season of playing baseball.  To celebrate the completion of the year and success in learning a new sport and being a part of the team, it is my hope that she will get a trophy.  Even though some other teammates might have received trophies in previous years, this will be a significant symbol of success for my daughter.  To fast forward a couple of years, some kids don’t start playing baseball until they are 8 or 9.  For these kids, I feel it is imperative for them to get a trophy, even if their teammates might be getting their 4th or 5th trophy.  Because of the sense of pride and long-lasting effect of positive reinforcement, the $8-10 investment is well worth it.
Being an awards company, I would love to take a minute to show you some of the baseball trophies we have to offer.  Our main baseball trophies section has several categories to choose from including; t-ball trophies, softball trophies, baseball medals, baseball resin trophies, baseball gifts (for coaches), and baseball trophies.  We also have a niche website, cheapbaseballtrophies.com that offers our full line of baseball trophies without displaying other awards products.
Please check out our wide array of products and remember, even if your child has started to accumulate trophies, the true impact is in the importance the parents place on the symbol of recognition.  Give them an extra pat on the back and tell them how good of a job they did in learning, sportsmanship and attendance.  These attributes are a great foundation for the kids to learn for future sports and to help them grow and become vital community members.

Bringing out the best in less popular trophy categories

Our summer projects are in full swing. While we are busy at work creating a few hundred new products (that is right, my goal is 400 new items!), we do have some exciting news to share.

We have just completed 15 new pages that feature some very important, but oftentimes under promoted, trophy categories. I share this news with you not because it is necessarily newsworthy, but to underscore our commitment to meaningful recognition as a whole. Most awards companies focus on the most popular sports (baseball, basketball, soccer, football, golf). Trophies2go.com goes for the whole package. I admit some of these new categories still do not have a huge selection (yet), but we are working on it. This summer we are focused on adding corporate awards, then we will fill in additional products within these new category pages.

To celebrate, I am including links to these sections for you to check out. Remember (hint, hint), check out my blog post from a month or so ago on promotion codes
