Custom 2026 College and NFL Football Schedule Magnets
College and NFL schedule magnets give your business a useful way to stay visible throughout the 2026 football season.
Each magnet can combine selected college and professional football schedules with your logo, contact information, brand colors, marketing message, and call to action.
Instead of distributing a generic football calendar, you provide a personalized reference featuring the teams your customers actually follow.
The magnet may remain on a refrigerator, filing cabinet, office appliance, toolbox, or another steel surface for several months. Your advertising remains visible without requiring another mailing, click, or monthly payment.
We can create anything from a compact single-team design to a regional combination featuring several colleges and professional football teams.
Why Do Football Schedule Magnets Produce Long-Term Visibility?
A useful schedule is more likely to be kept than an ordinary advertisement.
Football fans refer to schedules throughout the season to check game dates, opponents, rivalry matchups, and open weekends.
Each use creates another impression for the sponsoring business. Your name, logo, and contact information remain visible beside information the recipient values.
These college and NFL schedule magnets do not require recurring payments to remain displayed. Unlike a postcard or online advertisement, they are designed to stay attached to a useful surface.
The advertising value comes from repeated visibility over several months rather than one brief impression.

Who Uses Custom Football Schedule Magnets?
Football schedule magnets work especially well for businesses that depend on repeat customers, referrals, community recognition, or long-term relationships.
Common users include:
- Real estate agents and brokerages
- Mortgage lenders
- Insurance agencies
- Attorneys and law firms
- Restaurants and sports bars
- Automotive businesses
- Home-service contractors
- Medical and dental offices
- Equipment suppliers
- Staffing companies
- Financial professionals
- Local manufacturers and distributors
For example, a real estate agent can distribute magnets to past clients, referral partners, prospects, and neighborhood contacts.
The football schedule provides practical value. Meanwhile, the customized advertisement keeps the agent’s name and contact information nearby when a real estate need develops.
What Can Be Personalized on Custom Football Schedule Magnets?
Your magnet does not have to resemble a standard online template. We can adjust the schedule area and advertising panel to fit your audience and brand.
Personalization options may include:
- Your Logo: Feature your company logo prominently within the advertising area.
- Business Contact Information: Include your phone number, website, email address, office location, or social media information.
- Brand Colors: Coordinate the background, borders, headings, and advertising panel with your established color palette.
- Preferred Fonts: Supply a specific font or brand guideline when available. A close alternative can be used when a licensed font is unavailable.
- Font Colors: Select lettering colors that coordinate with your logo and remain easy to read.
- Marketing Message: Add a slogan, service list, referral message, special offer, or reason to contact your business.
- Photographs: Real estate agents, insurance professionals, attorneys, contractors, and other service providers can include a professional photograph.
- Team Selection: Choose the colleges and professional teams that matter most in your local market.
- Schedule Arrangement: Organize the teams according to geography, popularity, conference, or your preferred order.
- Helmet Treatments: Helmet shells, stripes, facemasks, abbreviations, and accent colors can be adjusted for the selected teams.
- QR Codes: Add a printed QR code that customers can scan to visit your website, contact form, digital business card, special offer, or another online page.
School names, logos, mascots, and other protected artwork may require licensing approval. However, many layouts can still use customized colors, abbreviations, schedules, and team-inspired helmet designs.
Which Football Team Schedules Can Be Combined?
You are not limited to one college or one professional team.
Many businesses choose a combination that reflects their local audience. For example, a company may feature one nearby NFL team with three or four popular colleges.
Possible schedule combinations include:
- One college football team
- One professional football team
- One NFL team with several regional colleges
- Multiple colleges from the same state
- Selected schools from different conferences
- A complete conference schedule layout
- A custom combination selected for a particular sales territory
This flexibility makes the magnet more relevant to the people receiving it. A well-chosen schedule combination gives more customers a reason to keep it.
Businesses seeking a complete conference format can also explore our personalized SEC football schedule magnets.
What Magnet Sizes and Layouts Are Available?
The standard 4-inch by 7-inch format works well for many single-team and multi-team combinations. It provides useful schedule information without requiring excessive refrigerator space.
Larger formats provide more room for additional teams, larger type, photographs, QR codes, and detailed advertising messages.
The appropriate size depends on:
- The number of schedules being displayed
- The amount of advertising information
- The required readability
- How the magnets will be distributed
- Your quantity and budget
A larger magnet can create greater visual impact. However, the schedule and advertisement must still remain balanced and easy to understand.
We can recommend a practical format after reviewing your preferred teams and marketing information.
Can a QR Code Be Added to the Magnet?
Yes. A printed QR code can turn a physical football schedule into a direct path to your online marketing.
You provide the website address or online page you want the code to open. We can then generate, test, and place the QR code within the magnet design.
A customer scans the printed code with a smartphone instead of typing a web address.
The QR code can open:
- A quote request form
- An appointment page
- A digital business card
- A restaurant menu
- A real estate listing page
- A product catalog
- A customer review page
- A seasonal promotion
- A video introduction
- Your main website
The football schedule gives the recipient a reason to keep the magnet. The printed QR code gives that person an easy way to respond.
A standard static QR code permanently opens the web address used when the code is created. Therefore, the customer should provide a reliable page that is expected to remain active.
Customers wanting a changeable or trackable destination should use their own dynamic QR-code or website-redirect service.
How Much Advertising Space Will My Business Receive?
The available advertising area depends on the magnet size and the number of schedules included.
A simple schedule combination may leave enough room for a large logo, contact information, QR code, photograph, and marketing message.
A layout containing several teams requires more schedule space. In that situation, we help prioritize the most important advertising elements.
Most effective advertisements include:
- A clearly visible logo or business name
- One primary phone number
- A short website address or printed QR code
- A concise description of the service
- One strong call to action
Trying to include too much information can make a magnet difficult to read. Our graphics team can help simplify the message while preserving the important details.
Why Is Pricing Provided by Custom Quote?
These magnets are individually planned rather than sold as one fixed, off-the-shelf product.
Pricing can vary according to:
- Finished magnet size
- Order quantity
- Material thickness
- Schedule configuration
- Time of the year
- Packaging requirements
- Shipping destination
- Special production instructions
Because these factors differ between projects, a single online price could be misleading.
We provide a project-specific quote based on the product you actually need. This also allows us to recommend adjustments that may improve readability or reduce unnecessary expense.
Our quotations do not include surprise screen charges or routine setup fees.
What Artwork Will I Need to Provide?
You do not need to submit a completed magnet design.
To begin, send the materials you already have, such as:
- Your logo
- Business name
- Contact information
- Preferred team schedules
- Brand colors
- Font preferences
- Photographs or headshots
- Marketing message
- The website address or online page the QR code should open
Vector logos are ideal, but high-resolution PDF, EPS, AI, PNG, or JPG files may also be usable.
Our graphics team will organize the supplied material into a professional layout. We can also identify files that may not reproduce clearly before production begins.
Will I See the Design Before the Magnets Are Printed?
Yes. A digital proof or mockup allows you to review the proposed layout before production.
You can check:
- Team selection
- Schedule arrangement
- Spelling
- Phone numbers
- Website addresses
- Colors
- Logo placement
- QR-code scanning
- Overall readability
Changes can be requested before the design is approved for printing.
This review process is especially important when several schedules and a detailed advertisement share the same layout.
The customer should also confirm that every supplied website address, phone number, date, and spelling is correct before final approval.
What Materials Are Used?
Our college and NFL schedule magnets are made for season-long visibility and regular handling.
- Full Magnetic Backing: The back surface is magnetic rather than relying on a few attached strips.
- Preferred 25-Mil Thickness: Our preferred commercial-grade material provides stronger holding power than many thinner 17-mil or 20-mil promotional magnets.
- Free Gloss Lamination: Lamination helps colors appear more vibrant, adds an attractive sheen, and provides light surface protection.
- Professional Full-Color Printing: Logos, photographs, schedules, and advertising information can be reproduced in a coordinated design.
- Made in the USA: Our custom schedule magnets are designed, printed, and shipped domestically.
A quality magnet should remain flat, readable, and attractive throughout the football season.
How Should the Magnets Be Distributed?
The best distribution method depends on your audience, magnet size, quantity, and mailing plan.
Businesses commonly distribute them through:
- Customer mailings
- Sales calls
- Office visits
- Networking events
- Community events
- Client appreciation programs
- Restaurant counters
- Referral-partner visits
- Employee or customer packets
Mailing requirements can vary according to the magnet’s dimensions, magnetic surface, packaging, and postal classification.
Discuss the intended mailing method with us before finalizing the size. This helps prevent unexpected postage or packaging issues.
For a lighter mailing or handout option, consider our football schedule postcards.
How Do I Start a Custom Football Magnet Project?
Begin by telling us:
- Which college and professional teams you want
- Your approximate quantity
- Your preferred magnet size
- How you plan to distribute the magnets
- What should appear in the advertising area
- When you would like the order delivered
You can also send your logo, brand colors, photograph, font preferences, and the website address your QR code should open.

Ordering earlier provides more time for design revisions, schedule verification, production, and delivery before football season begins.
