Powerade, Gatorade, or water.

No sodas or salty snacks.

What time does your practice end? If they are headed off to dinner at home I would stick to something kind of light like, water, bananas, cut up oranges. These are things we would serve the kids at half-time during soccer season to rehydrate and renutrient them before the next half.
If it will be awhile till their next meal I would add some kind of easily digestible complex carbohydrate or protein to the fruit and water. For example peanut butter crackers, granola bars, mozarella cheese sticks, yogurt cups.
Allergies and parents own ideas of proper eating are such an issue by this age that the kids might just like to bring their own snack from home to put in your cooler.

The zoo, where you can find out fascinating things, the park, where the children can play with a game or ball while you catch up on news with your cousin, flying kites with the children if you like it, taking everyone to a ball game, to a barbecue in the park, to a family movie, to a drive-in because it's different, to a discovery place for the family. If you're near the ocean, go sailing or just for a swim. If you have a hobby, maybe the kids can get interested in it, too, and develop their own later from that.

Fruit juice and bananas to replace the potassium they sweated out. A few pretzels to replace some of the sodium they've depleted.
When the weather cools, add in orange slices, banana muffins, and crackers and cheese.
We never allowed chips, snack bars, cookies or juice boxes because their nutrient value is low and it was getting kids into bad habits. There are few times in their lives that you can stress good nutrition, but coaching sports is definitely one of them.

You colud give the kids cheese sandwiches, water and fruit juices. Do not give them any thing sweet else they will dehydrate and become very hyper. Its common with all kids.

Orange slices, that is what we ate after soccer practice many a' moons ago. They have a lot of vitamin C.
