THE #1 CUSTOM FOOTBALL GIFT FOR SENIOR NIGHT, PLAYERS, TEAMS & COACHES
Make-A-Ball custom footballs are the original custom photo football, designed with your photos, names, numbers, and team colors, then printed with our exclusive Custom Image Technology that won't fade, crack, or peel. These are keepsakes, not game balls. Whether you're celebrating a senior night, recognizing a captain, capping a championship run, or honoring the coach who built the program, a custom photo football turns the moment into something that lives on display for decades. Designed in Baltimore and made one at a time, with no minimum order. One ball, or one for every player.
Football is the centerpiece of high school athletics in towns across America. It is the Friday night games, the senior nights, the championship runs that families remember for generations. Our full size custom photo footballs are official regulation size and reproduce single portraits, multi-photo collages, and full-color action photography across the ball's surface. Our medium footballs are perfect for desk display, lower-cost team-wide gifts, and stocking-stuffer sized keepsakes.
Every order starts with you uploading your photos and selecting a design. Our design team reviews every order and revisions are free until it's exactly right. Most orders are ready in 7–10 days from proof approval, and then ship from our Baltimore facility. With over 54,000 five-star reviews from football families, players, coaches, and high school programs, Make-A-Ball is the most trusted name in custom photo footballs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Footballs
How long does a custom football take to ship?
Most custom football orders are ready in 7–10 days after you approve your design proof, plus shipping time. Ship time varies by the shipping method chosen at checkout and your location. For senior night, banquets, and other date-specific events, we recommend ordering 3 weeks ahead to be safe. Rush orders are available. Just give us a call.
Can I put multiple photos on a single football?
Yes. Our design team can create single-photo layouts, multi-photo collages, full-team roster layouts, and senior portrait plus action shot combinations. Most senior night and team gift orders include 2-6 photos along with names, numbers, and dedication text.
What sizes do you offer?
We offer two sizes. Our full size custom football is 11 inches, official regulation size. Our medium football is 9 inches, a smaller keepsake with the same custom photo quality, sized for a desk, a shelf, or a display case, and a popular choice for team-wide gifts and signed-by-teammates keepsakes.
Are these usable footballs or display-only?
Our custom footballs are designed primarily as photo keepsakes and display items. The Custom Image Technology print is built to last for decades on display, but regular game use will wear the surface over time. We recommend reserving the custom photo football for the keepsake moment.
Is there a minimum order?
No. Order a single custom baseball or one for every player on the roster. There is no minimum order, and each ball can have its own design, so every player can have their own photo, name, and number. Quantity discounts are available on larger orders, and team and school pricing is available on our Team & School Estimates page.
Do you offer team discounts on bulk orders?
Yes. Quantity discounts are available for team and bulk orders, and you can price your full order instantly on our Team & School Estimates page. For larger team-wide and booster-club orders, contact us for custom pricing.
How does the design and proof process work?
For all orders, our design team creates your artwork within 24–48 hours of purchase and emails you a digital proof for approval before production begins. This includes custom club crests, logos, names, and any fully custom layouts. Revisions are included at no additional cost until you're completely satisfied with the design.
