🧡 What This Chaos Is All About

Welcome to Chaos, Cleats & Coffee — the unofficial HQ for sports parents just trying to make it through the season without losing their minds (or their water bottles).

If you’ve ever juggled overlapping games, screamed from the sidelines with coffee (or an adult beverage) in hand, or realized mid-drive you forgot the one thing your kid actually needed today... you're home.

This site was built for you — the ones doing the real work behind youth sports.

Here, you'll find:

• Relatable stories that make you laugh, nod, or feel a little less alone

• Caffeine-fueled survival tips to help you stay organized-ish

• Sarcastic game-day tees and gear (because someone had to say it)

• Links to products and tools that have actually made life easier — no fluff, just stuff that works

I’m a sports parent too — two boys, five sports, and a Google Calendar that deserves its own trophy. Over the years, I’ve played the roles of cheerleader, team parent, snack shack manager, and sideline therapist. I’ve navigated game-day chaos, snack duty politics, and more than one ER visit thanks to soccer injuries and a very unlucky bunt.

The cleats?
We’re always searching for them, replacing them, or wondering how their feet grew again.

The coffee?
That’s my fuel — I take it black, just like my humor and my team spirit: slightly bitter, always strong.

So whether you're brand new to this sports life or you've got years of sun-bleached bleacher time under your belt, Chaos, Cleats & Coffee is here to make you laugh, lighten the load, and help you show up like the MVP you already are.
