A gift that is commonly given to senior members of a high school football team is a team ring. This style of ring is large, much like any sport's championship ring. It contains the team's name, cut glass in the team's color, the player's name, position and number and the team's logo. Typically, seniors will sign up with the school to purchase a team ring, and the school will make the order to a company that produces school and team rings. To make this ring even more special, you can surprise the football player in your family by paying for the ring.
High school football programs organize the mass purchase of team jackets for football team members. For seniors, this jacket is the most important because it's their last high school football jacket and the only one to identify them as a senior. These jackets are often Letterman-style, with the team's logo on the left chest, the school's name across the back, the player's name and number on one sleeve and the player's position on the other sleeve. Giving the player the money needed to purchase this jacket can be a memorable gift.
If the senior member of the team would appreciate a homemade gift, gather as many pictures of him in uniform as possible (ideally, action shots taken at games) and make a collage from the images. If you wish to create a professional-looking collage, take the images to a graphic design company or printing shop and ask them to produce a collage. In addition to the photos, add the player's name, number, position, the team's name and year.
To give the senior a football-related gift, surprise him with a pair or two pairs of tickets to a college or professional football game in your area. This gift can be given during the high school season or at its conclusion, depending on when the tickets need to be used. This gift is especially memorable if the player hasn't been to a college or pro game.
Custom printing shops can produce a variety of football-related gifts for a senior football player. A popular gift is a souvenir football with the team's name, logo and the senior class' year printed on it. This style of ball often has one or more white panels. The information is printed on the white panel, and players can have teammates sign their names elsewhere on the panel.
