What to give a trainer for the New Year?

Often, a coach is more than just a sports instructor; for many athletes, he becomes an authority as important as his parents. It is the coach who, in difficult times, helps to achieve the goals set, overcome fear and self-doubt, and get rid of established patterns. This person teaches you to be cocky, decisive and assertive. Such a mentor should prepare a special gift for the New Year.

To bring joy to the trainer, try not to postpone the purchase of a presentation until the last days of December - think over your presentation in advance. To do this, you must complete the following tasks:

• analyze the features sports activities, as well as a person's hobbies;
• collect as much information as possible about the equipment of his car and the availability of gadgets;
• it will be useful to find out what preferences trainer for popular brands and manufacturers;
• think about the purpose of the gift - whether you want it to be pragmatic, original or memorable.

It is difficult to choose a gift for a person about whom you know almost nothing, so you need to try to collect as much information as possible about your mentor in order to make the right choice.

Keep in mind that the present should be thought out literally to the smallest detail - it should not be unpleasant to a person, in no case should it hint at flaws or external defects.

Be sure to take care of the original packaging - a present hastily tucked into a bag with the logo of the nearest supermarket will ruin the whole impression of the gift. And, of course, do not forget to remove the price tag - this is bad form.

When buying a gift, first of all, you need to consider the sport in which the coach specializes. So, for fitness instructors, you can pick up the following gifts:

• bath towel - the trainer will be especially pleased if, in addition, you embroider the trainer's initials or the touching phrase “the best instructor” on it;
• high tech gadgetallowing you to calculate the set and expenditure of kilocalories;
• stylish set from a headband, as well as gloves and wristbands;
• diary in a stylish cover, where the trainer can mark the results of classes and make adjustments to their daily plans.

When choosing a presentation for the coach of a team of swimmers and athletes of other water sports (water polo, triathlon, sailing or rowing), you can choose an original swimming cap with an unusual picture or funny text on the topic. If the budget allows, then it is worth getting a waterproof watch or player. A stylish bathrobe or terry towel is always appropriate. But it is better to refuse to buy swimming trunks - this is an overly personal item, such an offering may seem tactless.

For a basketball instructor, you can buy something practical, such as a thermos or a backpack. If you prefer that the gift was memorable, then order a statuette with the inscription "Basketball Star" at any advertising agency - most likely, your souvenir will take its rightful place on the same shelf with cups, award medals and other awards. For a football coach, these are the same options.

If your sports mentor has a good sense of humor, then he will most likely appreciate the punching punching bag - with it he will be able to continue his "training", even sitting at the table. For weightlifters, functional all-around and CrossFit mentors, you can opt for shakers used to formulate sports nutrition mixtures - such a thing is not only very convenient, but also looks quite impressive.

For a gymnastics mentor, you can always buy a high-quality stopwatch or choose something from sports equipment. You can record a disc with the trainer's popular melodies, and who knows, maybe listening to these compositions will later inspire him to create his new winning programs. Since in most cases this kind of sport is in the hands of women, then the presents can also be typical for women - perfumes, cosmetics, accessories for stylish hairstyles. But the choreographer can buy a cup with a three-dimensional image of a dancer, all kinds of accessories and a bag. Giving dance shoes is not worth it - it is a necessary thing, but buying it without trying it on is dangerous.... If you would like your gift to be useful, simply present your dance teacher with a certificate at a specialized sports store. Speakers for listening to audio recordings will be a good option for a choreographer, and statuettes depicting a dancing couple or a ballerina on pointe shoes will be appropriate for a girl dancer.

Sports paraphernalia always stands out of competition - it is necessary and useful to any coach. Most likely, a large travel bag will come in handy for a mentor, especially if the coach often travels to training camps and competitions with his charges. But giving clothes, including uniforms, is considered unethical. It would be more appropriate to buy the following special devices for sports:

• a set of dumbbells;
• barbell with pancakes;
• punching bag and gloves for boxing;
• steps;
• barrier.

However, it is not at all necessary to associate a present for the New Year with the sports side of the instructor's life, this statement especially applies to coaches in adulthood, who for each holiday, most likely, received more than once a variety of attributes of sports ammunition. If you intend to actually present something unusual, then buy him personal items.

If your mentor does not yet have a DVR or gadget for navigation, the New Year's holiday will be a good reason to finally fix it. Useful things include sound systems and car alarms, and your instructor will likely appreciate a massage seat cover.

If you are planning to buy a personalized gift, then you do not need to purchase an expensive item - this way you simply put the person in an uncomfortable position. There are many budget, but always appropriate options, namely:

• rug for classes;
• sports bottle for water;
• manual expander;
• trinket - key chains in the form of a punching bag, tennis racket and a football ball look very impressive, and a hockey coach can pick up a miniature copy of a stick;
• T-shirt and T-shirt with text - it can be both a comic message and a powerful motivator.

Your instructor will most likely need a business card holder, a stylish pen. In most cases, people who are professionally involved in active sports try to maintain a healthy lifestyle and adhere to the principles of proper nutrition, so you can present a juicer, yogurt maker or a book with the best PP recipes for the New Year. An accessory to gadgets will never be superfluous - a case for a smartphone, a backlight for a computer keyboard or a flash drive. And if your coach is a woman, then she will most likely like soft toys and jewelry, for example, a pendant.

If the gift is collective, then it can be memorable, for example, the following presents will be a good idea:

• photo collage - it is made from photographs taken together with the coach, most likely, he will decorate the wall in his office with such a poster;
• photo album - one more original idea, in this case you need to come up with an original text in each photo and be sure to leave wishes from each pupil;
• video film about a trainer - this is a very unusual, but always a nice gift.

A coach is an ordinary person, albeit a very strong one, so from time to time he needs rest. A brazier or a hammock will become a win-win gift option, and if an athlete is an intellectual, then you can solemnly give him a chess or a puzzle, certainly in a beautiful package.

Not everyone can afford to choose bold creative gifts, not every mentor can appreciate the sense of humor of their pupils. But if you are 100% sure that this is a person who loves jokes and practical jokes, then we advise you to consider one of the following options:

• personal Hollywood star;
• dumbbell alarm clock;
• portrait of the instructor in an unusual way for him, for example, in the form of Julius Caesar or maybe even Peter the Great;
• sports newspaper with a note about the instructor on the first page.

Funny gifts are invariably pleasant, and a person's favorite delicacies will help to make the impression of the present even brighter.

A warmer blanket will always be appropriate - this is a universal gift that will appeal to both men and women.

Just try to choose such a product so that it has a New Year's themed print. A mug with winter ornaments, as well as Christmas tree decorations, will always come in handy.
