Club Dinner Ready
In rugby, the social side matters almost as much as the scrummaging. The annual dinner, the president's lunch, the end-of-season awards and the tour send-off are all fixed points in the calendar, and they're usually jacket-and-tie affairs. Personalised rugby cufflinks give everyone something to show their colours with, even when the jerseys stay in the bag.
They work for individuals too. A birthday present for a dad who still turns out for the vets, a thank-you for a coach who has run the minis for fifteen years, or a memento for a player winning his hundredth cap for the first XV.
Crests, Front Rows and Tour Photos
Rugby lends itself to strong, simple designs that read well at small size:
- Your club crest. The first choice for most club orders. Use the cleanest, largest file you can get hold of.
- Cap numbers. Some clubs number every player who represents the first team; putting his number beside the crest is a lovely honour.
- The front row. A photo of the three props and hooker with their arms round each other has plenty of character.
- A tour picture. The squad on a beach in Portugal, or a memorable team photo from a tour to Ireland, with the year.
- The clubhouse or posts. A snap of the clubhouse bar or the goalposts silhouetted at dusk for someone who's given decades to the place.
- A try-scoring moment. A tight crop of him diving over the line, if anyone caught it on camera.
Planning a Bulk Order for Your Club
Clubs are the heart of rugby, and bulk orders are where personalised rugby cufflinks make the most sense. Order 5 or more pairs and each is £15, plus £5 shipping per order, so five pairs cost £80 and thirty pairs cost £455. You can include several different designs in the same basket: the crest for committee members, the crest with "Player of the Year" for award winners, and the tour logo for the squad that travelled. Even if you're ordering for every senior player across several teams or for the whole membership at an anniversary dinner, every pair is still £15.
Ordering everything in one go, well before the awards night, keeps it simple for whoever is organising.
Getting a Crest Ready for Printing
Rugby crests are often intricate, with shields, mottoes, roses or animals. Before uploading, look at the design at a small size on screen. If the motto becomes unreadable, consider a version without it. A high-resolution file from the club's kit supplier or website designer is ideal; photographs of a blazer badge tend to look soft. Because the cufflinks are square, set the crest on a background in one of the club colours, and use drag and zoom in the preview to centre it neatly. For team photos, crop tight: fifteen players plus replacements will be too small to recognise.
Tours, Anniversaries and Farewells
Beyond the annual dinner, rugby clubs have plenty of reasons to order cufflinks. A club celebrating its centenary might present a pair to every past captain. A departing coach might be given a pair carrying the league table from his best season. Tour parties often want a keepsake that's smarter than a T-shirt, and matching cufflinks for the tour dinner fit the bill. If your club crest belongs to a union or includes a sponsor's name, check everyone is happy before ordering.
How It Works
Upload your image, then check the live preview, where it appears on both cufflinks at once. Drag and zoom to line it up, add any other designs you need, and order through our secure checkout. We use your full-resolution original to print every pair in Cornwall, and each arrives in a gift box. A single pair is £40 with shipping included, for anyone buying just for one player.
Whether it's the top table at the president's lunch or the back of the coach on tour, your club's rugby cufflinks will be there, fastened and ready.
