Everyone has at least one really big sports fan in their life. The type of person who never misses their team’s games. The type of person who always knows what’s going on in their chosen sports in minute detail. You know the kind of person we’re talking about. And that person needs a really good sports present.
When you’re shopping for sports presents, whether it’s for the holidays or for a birthday or just because, it’s hard to figure out exactly when you should look for. But we’re here to give you a range of options. From blowout to budget, we’ll give you a list of presents that the sports fan in your life will be happy to rip open.
Sports presents budget £0 – £10
First up, we’re going to give you a couple of very thrifty sports presents. They won’t break the bank and, in fact, some of them won’t cost you a cent. But they will be appreciated for sure.
Bonus code
The first thing we’ve got is something for free! And that’s a bet365 bonus code. If your friend isn’t signed up to bet365 yet and they like the odd flutter on their sport of choice, then it makes an excellent sports present. And if you’re also new to bet365, this can be a present for you too!
Game night
Next up is a little experience to make the next big sporting event extra special for your friend. Give them a token to watch the next big sports game in your place. Buy their favourite crisps, snacks and drinks in advance. Then spend the evening letting them tell you all about how much they love their team. It’s a present for the memory bank.
Sports presents budget £15 – £50
If you want to spend a tiny bit more but still don’t want to completely blow the budget, these sports presents are thoughtful and have the wow factor.
A read and a nibble
A good book always makes a great present. And whatever sport their into, we’re sure there are loads of great books out there. Whether it’s an in depth strategy book, a book on the history of a game or a great biography, you’ll find a book to suit you.
So pick a book you know they’ll love. Then pair it with a bar of fancy chocolate that they can enjoy while they read. There are so many nice chocolate bars out there. If you go to any supermarket or delicatessen or even department store, you’ll see what we mean. For extra impact, choose the bar to match the colours in the cover of the book.
Wear your allegiances
The first thing you have to do when you’re thinking about buying any kind of clothing item for someone else is to think about what they normally wear. For example, someone who always wears a suit isn’t going to love a hoodie. Equally, there’s no point in getting someone a super bright strip when they only ever wear black.
But once you’ve established what kind of dresser they are, you might just be able to get them something they really love. Everytime they wear your present, they can think of you and their sport of choice. Here are a couple of ideas:
- For the hipster sports fan, a vintage jersey will be just the ticket. Scour your local vintage and charity shops. If you come up empty handed, have a search online
- If your friend is a little more muted in their dressing, grab them a pair of themed socks. A lot of people like to wear something secretly jazzy on their feet. And even if your pal wouldn’t necessarily wear them out, they’ll bring a smile to their face when them lounge around the house in them
- Is your friend always glued to their tech? Then give them a little sticker to put on the back of their laptop and explore a themed phone case too. But again, if they are usually pretty muted, make sure your choices reflect that
Sports presents blowout budget
For something extra special, that you don’t mind splashing a bit of extra cash on, consider these very welcome sports presents…
Season tickets
Now this is really special. Season tickets to their favourite team’s games. But it will cost you. Even for local teams, season tickets usually run up to a couple hundred pounds. And it can be significantly more for big name teams. For example, Premier League football teams’ season tickets are usually north of £500 and can get even more expensive, depending on the type of seating you’d like.
Having said that, if your loved one lives near the stadium (isn’t a currently season ticket holder) and would love the buzz of going to see their team play at every available opportunity, this is some special present.
Sports themed mini break
For something everyone will enjoy, take them off on a mini break with a fun sports theme. You could go to Barcelona for the weekend and take in a tour of the Barca Stadium and Museum. Or how about heading to Dublin to see the hurling in Croke Park and then enjoying the beautiful city and scenery while you’re there. Even if you’re not currently a hurling fan, you’ll be converted after your trip!
Tennis fans would adore being treated to a luxury London trip that coincides with Wimbledon. And for those into WWE, jet off to your favourite city in the United States and take a road trip that culminates in the Royal Rumble.
