20 of the Funniest Tweets About Kids in Sports

If you’ve ever had a child play a sport, chances are you’ve witnessed some pretty funny situations.

I remember watching my son’s teammate on his T-ball team hit the ball and promptly run to 3rd base, then 2nd, then to the pitcher’s mound and finally, home. Just zipping all over the field any which way LOL.

I’ve rounded up 20 very funny quips about little kids playing sports…hope you will laugh and relate!

When my 5yo had her first soccer game she looked at the team on the other side and with a serious face asked, "Is that our enemy?" Yes, that's our enemy lol

I’m so glad I’ve paid for a season’s worth of watching other people’s kids play soccer while my daughter sips at her water like it’s shaken not stirred

Took my 6 y/o daughter to a college football game and my dream of turning her into a fan quickly faded when she asked to go home in the first quarter because “we just watched this game on TV last week.”

My husband was so excited to finally have a kid that shared his love for baseball until the bottom of the 8th when she loudly asked “is this baseball or football?”

Daughter stopped dribbling and started talking to the girl guarding her, then she just gave her the basketball because “she wouldn’t stop waving her hands and it was annoying,” so dreams of that athletic scholarship may be on hold.

Coaching softball is wild because you get to call timeouts to teach valuable life lessons or sometimes just because your pitcher lost her tooth and she needs you to hold it for the Tooth Fairy.

First grade soccer is actually so exciting, like one player just grabbed a couple of sticks and started rubbing them together at midfield to try and start a fire

Spend $250 on your kid playing soccer so they can tell you the only thing they enjoyed is the popsicle at the end of the game

Like how dogs look like their owners, you can match the skilled kids in this Little League game to their athletic-looking parents, and my kid to me, who brought a book.

My 10yo refuses to sign up for sports that may have games on Saturdays because that’s her “me time,” and she’s my life coach now.

My 5yo got the ball at T-ball practice. The coach yelled, "tag him" as her teammate ran home. My 5-year-old threw the ball at the kid. The coach then yelled, "no tag him with your glove," so my 5yo threw her glove at the kid. Nobody got hurt tho cause my kid missed both times lol

Coaching girls isn’t much different than coaching boys until you bring your hands in for the final team chant and one of your players tells you, “Ew, your hands are really dry, Coach, you could use some lotion.”

A mom on my daughter's softball team found a cute snack idea on Pinterest & now all of the girls have their hands stuck in tiny mason jars.

Me: How was soccer practice?

7-year-old: Great! I didn't kick the ball in the creek.

Me: Was that really your only goal?

7: I also didn't fall in the creek.

our soccer ref didn’t show up so one of the moms on our team had her 9 year old son ref for us (he had a whistle) and a completely adult woman on the other team argued with one of his calls and he yellow carded her in front of everyone and she had to sit in her car to calm down
