Decorate with fan favorites by topping the table with a piece of artificial turf, found at your hardware store. Then, use white athletic tape to add yard lines and white self-adhesive numbers, found at the craft store, to finish your tablescape with yardage markers.

Score with sweets

After the delicious appetizers and main entrées, don’t forget dessert. Display cupcakes on a platter and add green “turf” and “yard lines and markers” with frosting.
