Custom Football Themed Gifts for Notre Dame

FILED IN: Client & Corporate Gifts, Custom Gift Designs, Employee Appreciation Gifts

Posted By: Jamie Kutchman

If you are a fan of college football, you no doubt know about the legendary "Fighting Irish" of Notre Dame. At Team Marigold & Grey, we love helping our corporate clients create memorable gifting experiences and you know we love a good themed gift! We recently had the pleasure of teaming up with corporate client Aramark to design custom football themed gifts for the dedicated staff at the University of Notre Dame. 

We embraced the university's iconic colors of blue and gold to create these high end football themed gifts that highlighted the rich football history of Notre Dame and featured local treats to commemorate the 2024 Fighting Irish football season. 

Celebrating The Fighting Irish

When designing gifts for a renown university as Notre Dame, it was easy to highlight the rich sports history of the Fighting Irish football team. The centerpiece of these custom designed staff gifts honored the legacy of the team and past players with a "Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football History Newspaper" coffee table book.

To commemorate a storied football season, we wanted to add a celebratory feel to these custom gift sets. We included a set of two rocks glasses, a set of chic marble coasters, and a set of two Irish Coffee flavored craft cocktail mixes. To highlight the local South Bend, Indiana area, we included a bag of Irish crunch gourmet popcorn for a sweet indulgence.

Notre Dame’s rich school colors of navy blue and gold easily set the stage for an elevated gift look. We chose a complimentary deep green crinkle paper to pay tribute to the football field. Each gift featured a custom branded appreciation gift notecard. To complete each gift, we added a custom branded gift tag and gold ribbon to each navy blue magnetic gift box for elegant finishing touches.

Let's dig in and unbox these Irish and football inspired staff gifts... 


These thoughtful custom designed gifts not only celebrated the 2024 football
season but also acknowledged the hard work and dedication of the Notre Dame staff.

Corporate gifting does not have to just be at the holidays. Expressing gratitude and acknowledging the hard work of dedicated partners is an ideal way to strengthen relationships. 

Reach out to our team of gifting experts to see how we can help your business express gratitude and celebrate milestones, while staying true to your brand's identity. 

Happy corporate gifting!
