Christmas sport gift guide: the best presents for fans of all ages

Gear, running tech and a load of balls: we pick out some perfect presents and stocking fillers to satisfy ardent followers of any game

Fun, games and unique

For the football fan of any age, a new ball always goes down well with the obvious choice a well-priced Champion League 2025 replica from Decathlon.co.uk. However, for a more rewarding alternative try one of the colourful and striking options from the Alive & Kicking range at Thedifferentkind.com. A not-for-profit organisation producing handmade balls with unique designs in sub-Saharan Africa, creating jobs and contributing to the economy, they also donate balls – football and rugby, beautifully made from locally sourced leather – to local children.
