Sports Theme Bulletin Board Ideas
Below are some sports theme bulletin board ideas for elementary teachers.
Sports Bulletin Board Backgrounds
Consider using peel and stick parquet floor tiles to create an amazing looking bulletin board background that resembles a basketball court. Another idea is to use an artificial grass carpet, which looks like athletic fields. If you prefer to keep it simple and use solid color fabric or butcher paper for your bulletin board backgrounds, we recommend going with the colors brown, black, or green.
Sports Bulletin Board Trim
In addition to traditional border, put these items around the perimeter of your board.
- green grass
- jersey material
- award ribbons
- different logos of sports teams printed out
- black and white referee stripes

Sport Themed Classroom Pictures
The sports theme bundle includes BOTH the original version (shown below) and the newly updated version (shown above). In the newer version, we used all new clipart which includes much more diverse characters. Also, we made the entire bundle 100% editable so not only can you customize it with your students’ names and details specific to your classroom, you can now translate EVERYTHING into other languages too. This has long been a request from teachers of ELLs and immersion classrooms. Both versions are available in the Elementary Classroom Decor Collection.
