Cool Jerseys for the Season

If your sports fan is a busy guy and probably wouldn’t be able to make the best of a season ticket gift, why not get him replica jerseys or t-shirts of his favorite team (or teams) so that he can root for them from his chair at home? Guys love wearing sports team gear and bonding over plays and cool stats.

Featured are the top four baseball teams of the 2013 season. Your sports fan may love football or hockey more, and that’s fine, but I personally am a huge baseball fan. I own the Ortiz jersey and can definitely say it’s a good item.

Sports Books That Any Sports Fan Will Love

Books about sports are a great option if reading is a passion as much as sports are. This combines two loves and there are some very cool books out there that chronicle entire histories of teams and players as well as there being cool and beautiful coffee table type books that serve as excellent collector’s items.

Baseball fans may enjoy an almanac or a collection of baseball cards put into a book. Football fans would love anything to do either NFL or college teams. Hockey fans can be ravenous for any kind of books about the sport.

Workout Equipment and Gear

Most guys who are into sports are into working out as well. This allows for a variety of cool gifts from hand weights to machine type gifts like home gyms or stationary bikes. Workout DVDs for working out at home can also be a very attractive option for those that have limited space. Some of these can be expensive, but make for great gifts.

Another great option would be to get a membership to a gym or to a personal trainer. Sometimes just the gift of promising to play some hoops or to go walking with someone is a great thing for someone like this. It’s physical activity and bonding time all in one.

Don Mattingly Autographed Baseball w/ 85 AL MVP – ITP – PSA/DNA Certified – Autographed Baseballs
An extremely cool gift for any sports fan is an autograph from their favorite sportsperson. You can find many autographed items online, all sorts of memorabilia that will make an awesome collector%u2019s piece. Prices can probably be high depending on the fame of the person that you%u2019re seeking the autograph of.

This Don Mattingly ball is especially cool as it’s a rare thing and is from his early days with the Yankees. There are numerous other items just like this online and can be found for just about any player or team.

Sports Related Video Games

Guys generally love gaming as much as they love sports, so why not try a sports themed game for your sport fans favorite console system. There is everything from Baseball to Golf to be found on Wii, PS3, Xbox and all other platforms. Wii Fit may not be up his alley, but Wii Sports probably would be.

I love the way the games respond for the Kinect or the XBox. PS3 ones have great graphics and just about everyone has a PC to play PC computer games on although the controls on a PC can be a bit difficult to master.

The Kinds of Gifts a True Sports Fan Can Love

Very often the simplest gifts are overlooked. A sports guy would probably love anything that would allow him to play sports.

Guys Who Play Sports.

If that sports fan in your life plays anything like baseball, football or basketball, a great gift would be some sort of agility set for training. Hurdles, cones and weights can be set up for an individual training course to gain more endurance and speed. Some good equipment might also be various balls such as footballs or basketballs.

Runners.

A backpack to hold their water would be an excellent idea. These strap easily to a runners back and let the runner drink hands=free through a straw. Very cool idea.

Golfers.

Maybe an idoor putting green like on The Price is Right? They have sets that have a mat that can be unrolled in the home or office for a quick stress relieving round of putting to help improve their game. Golf clubs and golf accessories are always cool for guys who love to golf.

For the Everyman.

A watch with stopwatch capabilities is great for sports. Make sure it’s waterproof for those into swimming or surfing type activities. A bag is cool for just about anyone. A sports bag can be different depending on the sport played, such as baseball bag being able to hold cleats and a few balls and a glove, and a yoga bag holding a portable mat and all the accessories that it calls for.

There are many gifts that a sports guy would love, you just have to do a bit of thinking and realize that at the end of the day it’s the thought that counts.
