Don’t Miss Kickoff Because You Ordered Too Late
Fall sports are already here, and production clocks are ticking. Lock in your custom hats and spirit gear now so your team shows up fully branded, fully stocked, and ready for game one.
Fall Sports Spirit Gear is Here – Is Your Team Gear Ready?
August signals more than the end of summer – it’s the official start of fall sports. From Friday night lights to cross-country meets, the action begins now. Whether you’re a coach, booster club member, or proud parent, this is the last call to order custom hats, embroidered team shirts, and fan gear that shows off your school spirit on time. With 4-6 week production timelines, waiting could mean missing your first game entirely.
Why August Is the Prime Time to Order Team & Fan Apparel
Most schools underestimate how quickly the season moves once practice begins. Ordering custom sports gear in August helps you:
- Lock in inventory before peak production delays
- Avoid rush fees and backorders on popular styles
- Launch early fundraising campaigns with full stock
- Engage families and fans before school-year chaos sets in
From embroidered sideline hats to printed team tees, getting ahead in August sets your program up for success.
What to Include in a Custom Fan Pack (That Actually Sells)
Fan packs are one of the easiest and most profitable tools for booster clubs. They’re easy to promote and even easier to fulfill – especially when pre-orders are used.
Top fan gear items include:
- Custom Embroidered Hat – Show off school pride in style
- Printed T-Shirt – Lightweight and perfect for kickoff weather
- Hoodie or Crewneck – Ideal for those chilly Friday nights
- Optional Add-Ons – Water bottles, stadium seats, drawstring bags, decals
Pro Tip: Offer tiered bundles (Basic, Premium, Deluxe) to fit different budgets while keeping inventory streamlined.
Control Costs with Pre-Orders & Early Incentives
Skip the guessing game on sizing and inventory. Use a pre-order system to collect sizes and payments upfront, keeping your order clean and cost-effective.
Ways to boost early sales:
- Offer limited-time discounts or bonus items (like custom keychains)
- Promote pre-orders through school emails, social media, and team group chats
- Use a clear deadline to build urgency and simplify fulfillment
