The UK custom football kit market is crowded. From online-only startups to established manufacturers, clubs face a dizzying array of choices when it comes to outfitting their squads. Getting it right matters. Your kit is your identity on the pitch, and the supplier you choose affects everything from quality and turnaround to how your sponsors look under floodlights.
My Club Group, based in Tandridge, Surrey, has established itself as one of the best custom football kit suppliers in the UK, particularly for grassroots clubs, schools and community teams. We were a finalist for Business of the Year 2024 (more than 10 employees) at the Tandridge Business Awards, and returned in 2025 with Mike Palmer shortlisted for Apprentice of the Year. That kind of local recognition speaks to consistent quality, genuine investment in people, and a business built to last.
This article breaks down what to look for in a top UK supplier and shows how My Club Group delivers for clubs across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Why My Club Group Stands Out in the UK Custom Football Kit Market
My Club Group operates from Tandridge as a custom sportswear manufacturer and e-commerce brand. We supply custom football kits and other sports kits throughout the UK and have recently expanded into Europe, serving grassroots clubs, youth academies, universities and corporate organisations. Our focus has always been on making professional-level customisation accessible to teams that don’t have Premier League budgets.
The Tandridge Business Awards recognition in 2024 and 2025 reflects real progress. Being named a finalist for Business of the Year in 2024 demonstrated growth, reliability and strong operations. Mike Palmer’s Apprentice of the Year shortlisting in 2025 shows our commitment to developing the next generation of talent within the sportswear industry. These aren’t vanity awards. They’re markers of an organisation doing things properly.
Unlike some competitors who focus on stock garments with basic printing, we produce bespoke design kits tailored to each club’s colours, crest and sponsors. We believe grassroots teams deserve the same kit quality as professional outfits, just at a price that works for volunteer-run clubs.
Here’s what sets My Club Group apart from typical UK suppliers:
- Competitive pricing for full squads, with custom sports uniforms starting from accessible price points
- Dedicated account managers who guide you from first order to final delivery
- In house design support, so you don’t need a graphic designer on your committee
Custom Football Shirts for Adult & Youth Teams
My Club Group produces fully sublimated custom football shirts for adults and juniors. Whether you’re a Sunday League side, a youth academy, a school team, a university club or a corporate five-a-side squad, we create shirts built for the demands of real match play.
Our shirts use high-quality performance fabrics. These materials keep players cool during 90-minute games and stand up to weekly washing throughout the season. No fading, no shrinking, no peeling graphics.
Customisation options cover everything you need to look the part. You choose your club colours, add your crest, include individual player names and numbers, and integrate multiple sponsor logos on the front, back, sleeves and anywhere else that suits your design. League badges and cup patches? No problem. Everything is built into the design from the start using sublimation printing, which means your logo and details are part of the fabric itself, not stuck on top.
We support full adult size runs from XS through to XL, plus youth sizes for junior teams. Our size guides help kit officers get it right first time, reducing the hassle of exchanges and reorders when you’re trying to outfit 15 or 20 players at once.
Key benefits of our custom football shirts:
- Breathability and comfort during intense match play
- Durability that lasts multiple seasons
- Colour-fastness, so your team colours stay true wash after wash
- No-peel logos and numbers
- Match-ready fit across adult and youth ranges
Personalised Details: Names, Numbers and Sponsors
Personalised elements aren’t an afterthought with My Club Group. Names, squad numbers and sponsor logos are integrated from day one of the design process, ensuring everything works together visually.
Sponsor placement options include:
- Front-of-shirt main sponsor, the prime real estate that helps clubs secure the best deals
- Back sponsor beneath numbers, a popular spot for secondary partners
- Sleeve sponsors, ideal for local businesses or community organisations
- Collar and lower-back placements for additional branding opportunities
This flexibility helps clubs maximise revenue from sponsors while keeping the overall style clean and professional.
How we support sponsor integration:
- We prepare sponsor artwork for you, vectorising logos where needed
- We advise on colour contrast and readability so logos pop on your kit
- We help with layout so multiple sponsors look balanced rather than cluttered
Consider a grassroots club securing two local sponsors for the 2024/25 season. A main front sponsor from a local builder, plus a sleeve sponsor from the village pub. My Club Group’s design team maps both onto the dream kit, ensures the colours work against the shirt fabric, and delivers a final product that looks like it belongs in the professional game. No design expertise required from the club.
Designing Your Custom Football Kit Online with My Club Group
Our free online kit builder lets clubs start designing within minutes from anywhere in the UK. No software to download, no design skills needed. Just an idea of how you want your team to look.
The typical design process works like this:
- Select a base template or start from scratch for a fully bespoke creation
- Choose your colours to match your club identity
- Upload your club logos and crest
- Add sponsor logos in your preferred positions
- Include names and numbers
- Request a quote and connect with your account manager
For clubs wanting something truly unique, our in house design team creates fully custom concepts from the ground up. You tell us your vision, and we produce mockups until you’re completely satisfied. This service comes at no extra cost, because we don’t think clubs should pay premium rates just to see what their kit might look like.
Account managers provide personal support throughout the process. Whether you’re a committee member, PE teacher, team manager or volunteer, you’ll have someone on the end of an email or phone who knows your order inside out. Video calls are available too, perfect for talking through design details when a quick sketch on a screen helps more than a written description.
Getting from idea to approved design:
- Contact us or use the kit builder to start your design
- Receive mockups and refine the details with your account manager
- Approve the final design and confirm sizing for your squad
- Sit back while production begins
Teams planning for the 2025/26 season should aim to start design work during pre-season. Early engagement secures your preferred delivery window and gives time to gather player sizes without last-minute stress.
Size Guides, Samples and Fit Checks
Accurate sizing is crucial when you’re ordering for a full squad. Nothing derails kit day quite like shirts that don’t fit. My Club Group provides detailed size guides for both adult and youth garments, with measurements for chest, length and fit style.
For clubs that need extra confidence before committing, we can discuss sample options. Seeing and feeling the fabric quality in person, and checking fit on a couple of players, removes guesswork from big orders.
Practical tips for team managers ordering for 10-20+ players:
- Gather player measurements (chest, waist, height) before ordering
- Use our size chart rather than assuming standard sizes
- Build in a few spare shirts for mid-season signings
- Order slightly earlier than you think you need to, especially for September league kick-offs
Turnaround Times, Delivery Across the UK & Customer Support
Reliable turnaround matters. Grassroots clubs work to fixed league start dates and tournament deadlines. A supplier who misses those windows causes real problems, from forfeiting matches to scrambling for emergency stock.
My Club Group typically delivers custom football kits within a realistic timeframe of 2-4 weeks from final design sign-off, depending on order complexity and production schedule. We’re transparent about timelines from the start, so you know what to expect and can plan accordingly.
We ship throughout the UK, including Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and remote areas. For clubs with multiple squads, from U9s through to adults, we consolidate orders so everything arrives together. One delivery, one point of contact, less admin for busy volunteers.
What to expect from our customer support:
- UK-based team available by email and phone during normal business hours
- Proactive updates during production, so you know where your order stands
- Honest communication if anything changes, rather than silence until the last minute
For clubs targeting September league kick-offs, we recommend placing orders by late spring or early summer. That commitment to planning ahead avoids the rush and guarantees you’re ready for day one.
Key service promises:
- Reliable, clearly stated timelines
- Clear communication throughout production
- Support for rush orders where feasible
After-Sales Service and Reorders
The relationship doesn’t end at delivery. My Club Group keeps your design files on record, so reordering extra shirts for new signings or replacements mid-season takes minutes rather than starting from scratch. Your account manager knows your kit, your colours, your sponsors, making the process seamless.
For larger clubs, we offer dedicated Club Shops where players and fans can order directly from your custom range. This works brilliantly for organisations with multiple teams or active supporter bases. Clubs can even earn commission on sales through their shop, creating an additional revenue stream that supports running costs.
After-sales benefits for club secretaries and kit officers:
- Design files stored for easy reorders in following seasons
- Support for replacement items and size swaps where feasible
- Guidance on adding new sponsor artwork as partnerships change
- Commission options through Club Shops for larger organisations
Having a consistent long-term supplier in Tandridge gives clubs stability. Same quality, same contact, same understanding of your club’s identity year after year.
Sustainability and Quality: Choosing a Responsible UK Football Kit Supplier
More UK clubs and schools in 2024-2025 are thinking about sustainability when choosing sportswear. It’s not just about the planet, though that matters. It’s about value too. Kits that fall apart after one season waste money and create unnecessary waste.
My Club Group focuses on durability as a core part of our sustainability approach. We produce garments designed to survive multiple seasons of matches, training and washing. Quality stitching, colour-fast fabrics, and sublimation printing that won’t crack or peel. When your kit lasts longer, you order less often.
We use modern performance fabrics selected for both athletic function and longevity. Where available, we offer options for more sustainable material choices, keeping pace with European and UK trends toward responsible production. Our focus is on practical progress rather than greenwashing.
Efficient production also plays a role. Accurate sizing and clear communication reduce returns and overordering. When clubs get the right kit first time, there’s less shipping, less waste, and less hassle for everyone involved.
Sustainability advantages of working with My Club Group:
- Kits built for multi-season life spans
- Thoughtful material choices where sustainable options fit performance needs
- Responsible production processes that minimise waste
- Accurate sizing guidance to reduce returns and overorders
