Custom football stickers with a name and number are die-cut vinyl stickers printed with your player's name and jersey number. You pick a design, type the name and number exactly as you want them, choose a size from about 1.5 to 6 inches (3.8–15 cm), and we print it to order. They're made for water bottles, laptops, coolers and team gifts.
All of our name-and-number designs live in the personalized stickers collection. Here's how to choose the right one, and how to order for a whole team without the headache.
What you can personalize
Every design has a personalization box. What goes in it depends on the design, but most let you add:
- Player name. First name, last name or a nickname.
- Jersey number. One or two digits.
- Color. Some designs let you pick a main color to match your team's look.
We double-check spelling before printing, but we print what you type. So type it exactly as it should appear, including capital letters.
Pick a design that fits the player
Different moments call for different looks. Three that cover most situations:
Classic football with name
A football with the player's name across the laces. Simple, bold and easy to read from across the sideline. Great for younger players and first seasons.

Gold player for senior night
A gold-splash football player with the name and number. It feels a little more special, which is why it works for senior nights, banquets and end-of-season gifts.

Team spirit for football moms
Made for the loudest fan in the stands. It pairs a team-spirit football design with your player's name and number, and you choose the main color. It looks great on a tumbler or a car-line coffee cup, and it's an easy way for grandparents and siblings to match too.

Which size should you choose?
Sizes are measured on the longest side. Here's a quick guide:
| Size | Best for |
|---|---|
| 1.5 in (3.8 cm) | Phone cases, planners, small cups |
| 2 in (5 cm) | Kids' water bottles, notebooks |
| 3 in (7.6 cm) | Most water bottles and tumblers, laptops |
| 4 in (10 cm) | Laptops, larger tumblers, lunch boxes |
| 6 in (15 cm) | Coolers, gear bins, team banners |
Prices depend on the design and size and run from $2.39 to $7.99 per sticker. When in doubt, 3 inches is the safe pick for a bottle or laptop.
Where to stick them
Vinyl holds best on smooth, hard surfaces. Good spots:
- Water bottles and tumblers. The most popular spot. Easy to spot in a pile on the bench.
- Laptops and tablets. Show off a player all school year.
- Coolers and gear bins. Big sizes make the team's stuff easy to find.
- Folders and binders. A small win for younger players.
Fabric gear bags and textured plastic don't hold stickers well, so skip those.
Ordering for a whole team
Team orders are where these stickers shine. A few ways to use them:
- Senior night. A gold player sticker for each senior, with their own name and number.
- End-of-season gifts. One sticker per player, handed out with certificates or snacks.
- Team parents. Matching team-spirit stickers for every family in the group chat.
Add each player as a separate item with their own name and number in the personalization box. It keeps every sticker clear for printing and checking. Since each one is made to order, leave a little extra time for printing and shipping before a banquet or senior night.
Shopping for one player? Five 3-inch classic stickers at $4.99 each come to $24.95, which clears our $20 free-shipping threshold.
What they're made of
These are premium vinyl stickers with a protective laminate, die-cut to shape with a clean white border. The laminate helps them resist water, UV and scratches, so they're a good match for bottles and outdoor gear. Removed within the first year, they usually peel off cleanly from smooth surfaces.
One honest note: we print names, numbers and your colors. We can't print official team logos, league marks or mascots we don't own the rights to.
How to apply and care for them
- Clean the surface and let it dry fully.
- Peel the backing and place the sticker from one edge.
- Smooth it from the center out with a card to push out air.
- Give it about a day before it goes in water.
For step-by-step help, see our guide on how to apply a vinyl sticker without bubbles. Hand wash stickered bottles, and don't scrub right over the sticker.
