GET THE MOST FOR YOUR TEAM WITH DIRECT SOCCER CLUBS
As football people we understand how much work is involved in running a football team.
Help take the stress away from ordering your team’s kit and training wear by taking advantage of the club specific initiatives we run at Direct Soccer.
Available for larger clubs who run a multitude of teams, as well as soccer schools/academies is our Club Shop facility.
A Club Shop at Direct Soccer can be of tremendous benefit to teams that have a large volume of players and coaches in their club who all wear a standardised kit and trainingwear range, ensuring they all get a uniformed look, helping your club stand out in its community, and be a destination club for players and coaches to get involved with.
Having a club shop also takes the hassle away from having to build items and orders from scratch, as we can create products that already include specific personalisations that you need on each item, allowing you to add them to your basket quickly and easily.
Another key benefit of this is that it means the ordering of kit doesn’t have to be left to just one person – our club shop structure allows players, parents, even supporters, the opportunity to order their club branded products at their own leisure, easing the burden on a specific person, allowing them to get on with other important tasks involved in running your club.
We have over 80 club shops on our website, which includes football clubs, hockey clubs, schools, colleges and universities, who have all benefited greatly from having a Club Shop with Direct Soccer as per a couple of their testimonials below.
EWAN PEACOCK AT D&A COLLEGE
The use of the club shop on the website has made ordering more efficient
“The use of the club shop on the website has made ordering more efficient for the college and has given students a simple but effective system to order their clothes. Updating and making alterations to the club shop format has always been achievable with Direct Soccer staff always on hand to make necessary changes. The added benefit of the loyalty scheme allows the department to reinvest the funds into other equipment and clothing. Setting up the club shop has completely transformed our ordering process, making it slicker and less time consuming for D&A College staff. The service we receive from Direct Soccer has been excellent.”
SCOTT MCGOWAN OF READING CITY FC
The club has grown over the last couple of years and rebranded this summer.
“The club has grown over the last couple of years and rebranded this summer. The partnership with Direct Soccer has really enabled the club to ensure that the whole club has a standard kit, training kit and manager wear that is very easy to procure. The addition of a supporters shop recently has been a huge success and provided the club with the opportunity to provide a replica shirt for the first time ever. The loyalty scheme was very easy to set up and the support from Murray has been amazing. We have used the credit to purchase new balls and equipment for several of the youth teams. We had a couple of small issues around using the vouchers but Murray sorted this instantly. The whole experience has been amazing, we run circa 20 youth team and a couple of senior teams and the managers have provided really positive feedback about the new arrangement. Once the shop went live, we noticed that it would be better to structure the shop differently. The response from Murray was first class and turned around the new layout very quickly.”

A Club Shop might not be suitable for your club, but don’t despair, we have a Loyalty Scheme (all Club Shops automatically enrol into the Loyalty Scheme) that allows you to earn money back on your spending at Direct Soccer.
The loyalty scheme is unique in that it allows you to save as you spend. For every £2,000 you spend with us, we give you a £100 discount voucher code to spend on the website. The voucher can be used against any products on our website including items in our clearance section and personalisation too while it can be used at any time within a 24 month period so you can use it when you feel it will be of most benefit to you and your club.
Plus, as a bonus, for larger spenders for every £10,000 you spend per calendar year, you will receive an additional £500 bonus voucher which means for spending £10,000 you would receive £1,000 in vouchers through the year.
To get enrolled in our Loyalty Scheme, simply email your details to clubshops@directsoccer.co.uk.
Once set up, you will receive a link to a Club Token that is hosted on our website that will have your team’s badge on it and to count the value of the orders towards your spending you need to add the token to your shopping basket each time you place an order.
This is also useful for players, parents, coaches and other relatives that may do ordering to use to make sure the value of their order counts towards your accumulated spend. At the start of each month the account holder will receive a Monthly Statement from our dedicated club shops team, outlining what orders have been dispatched the previous month, so you are kept up to speed with what your spend total is and how far away you are from getting another £100 voucher.
Make your ordering much easier by shopping with us and taking advantage of our Loyalty Scheme or Club Shop facilities now!
