We are trying to motivate our kids. We truly believe you get what you emphasize so we are going to look to do a few more awards if we can find fun and meaningful ones. We are only doing helmet stickers/decals for academic achievements or goals met. Here is what we do so far:
-Hammer Awards (painted hammer of school colors that we put their number on and hang on their locker for the week). We give this for the biggest hit on each Offense, Defense, and Special Teams
-Domino Awards (we take dominos and put stickers of our school initials and stickers of the players number on them and put a magnet on back so they can hang them on their lockers): We give one for every knock down a player has in the game.
-Hard Hat Award (hat painted school color with old helmet decals from past). We let kids vote on it.
-Scout team player of the week both offense, defense, and special teams get recognized with a certificate.
-Offensive Lineman, Back, and Receiver of the week awarded by certificate
-Defensive Linemen, Linbacker, or Back of the week awarded by certificate
Anyone have a fun award that your kids thrive on that would be worth adding to our list. I use to hate awards but have found anything to recognize and motivate the players can be worth doing.
