Families that play together, stay together and encouraging all members of your family to take up an outdoor activity or team sport is a healthy pursuit. But some sports require a tremendous amount of equipment that takes its toll on your already limited storage space. (Think: garage cluttered with bats, balls, golf clubs, helmets, etc.)
If everyone played soccer or basketball then it would only be a matter of dealing with ball storage. This portable rack from Champion Sports holds 12 balls securely and makes for easy access. If you want to be really organized, then consider this portable ball locker. It will hide those stinky pads and/or helmets.
Athletic endeavors such as hockey, lacrosse and baseball require a storage solution to keep sticks and bats from becoming a tripping hazard.

This sports gear station from Rubbermaid holds bats, sticks, helmets and balls with ease. It also contains a mesh bag for ball storage but can be cinched up and removed for easy portability.
The mass of sports gear cluttering your garage may look intimidating, but with the proper storage solution you'll have easy access to the gear. You'll also create a safer environment since there isn't a million things to trip over. You also won't lose as much equipment, which will save you money.
