I have done many successful fundraisers for sports teams. Usually limiting to less than five products is the best way to go. I usually offer an incentive for the one who sells the most. Satin Hands Pampering set or lip gloss with lip protector have been the most successful. You can contact me if you’d like me to do the fundraiser by going to http://tinyurl.com/67fo28
I give 20% to the team.

I just completed my first year of cross country and we sold entertainment books. At first i didnt think it was a good idea but i was amazed at how many people bought them. we sold them for $20 each and the school made $10 off each one. each runner was required to sell 5. If your interested click on the link below under sources! hope this was helpful!

You could have a carwash. Those always rake in a lot of dough, however, that's a better idea if you have a team of high school seniors...not 12-13 year olds. In junior high for my choir, we had an "Egg Drive". The girls go door-to-door (doesn't really work in the city, I'm afraid) and at the first place they hit up, they explain what they're raising money for and ask for an egg. Then they go to the next house, explain themselves again and try to sell the egg to the neighbor.

In my area, families from the team donated unwanted household items and then had a huge yard sale at the local middle school parking lot. Or, it could be held indoors if it is cold in your area. Yes, this is selling- but the people in the neighborhood come to you for items they may be interested in (and a bargain), and they feel good knowing they are helping out the girls soccer team. You could even advertise the sale for free on Craigslist. All the best to you!

I have 2 that worked pretty well for my swim team..

1. lunch auction: Have the girls make lunches for after the game or for a party and invite people to bid on the baskets they want. When the bidding is over and the girls hopefully win the game have a large picnic with everyone you invited to the fundraising game.

2. Chores – Have each girl donate hours to cleaning up trash, walking dogs, washing windows, vacumming. They can be helping the community and getting tips.

In nice weather, car washes do fairly well.
Or, getting permission from your church for a bake sale might be a possibility.
I know in high school I was in the German club and we sold German chocolate to raise funds, and soccer is a mainly European phenom.
Drawings or raffles for a nice prize also seem to work well in our schools here. Maybe a gift basket, or a dinner somewhere nice?
Good luck!
