1. Rugby Ball Cufflinks

Cufflinks are an awesome present for anyone 16+, they make great accessories for rugby or sports socials or with a work suit and tie to show some personality and passion for your favourite sport. The Nicest Option are priced at just under £60, will last for life and are quality worth paying for. Ideal to show appreciation for an Anniversary, Big Birthday year or Father’s Day.

If they’re out of your price range, the Harvey Makin cheaper alternative are incredible bang for your buck. At only £10, they may not last for life but they have a great shape, look super and will undoubtedly be appreciated.

2. Rugby Autobiography

A book is always a good option for around £10. Jonny Wilkinson’s “Jonny” is a few years old now but an absolute must-read for anyone who calls themselves an England Rugby Fan. Written by the man who won England the Rugby World Cup in 2002, it truly is a brilliant read. If your gift-receiver is big on reading, he may already have read Jonny. In which case, Dan Carter’s brand new autobiography is written fresh off of his World Cup win with the All Blacks. After just receiving Sports Personality of the year and becoming the best paid rugby player in the World, Dan Carter is a true icon of the sport. Both books are well written and are an easy read for those who don’t engage much with books.

Jonny: My Autobiography

The best selling rugby book on Amazon at the moment is actually James Kerr’s ‘Legacy’ – 15 life lessons from the All Blacks.
