Custom Name and Number Printing for 7-on-7 Football Apparel
Quick Answer- Player name and number printed per-order on tees, hoodies, long sleeves.
- No setup fees, no upcharge, no per-name fees.
- Each player picks their own name and number at checkout.
- Same per-piece price as logo-only printing.
Custom name and number printing on 7-on-7 football apparel is the difference between a team-store gimmick and a real game shirt. We add player name above the number and the number itself to the back of every wicking tee, long sleeve, or hoodie at no upcharge. Per-order printing means each player picks their own name and number at checkout, so an 18-player roster has 18 different shirts with no extra setup.
How per-order name + number works
Three steps from the player's side:
- Land on your team store URL
- Pick a shirt, color, and size
- Enter their name and number in the customization fields at checkout
Each order is then printed individually with that player's name and number. No bulk roster file, no minimum number of customizations required, no waiting for the whole team to order before printing starts.
Where name and number print
- Tees and long sleeves: name across upper back, number large in center
- Hoodies: name across upper back, number on back or left sleeve
- Polos: not standard, but available as smaller right-side embroidery
- Shorts: numbers do not go on shorts (game rule and visibility issues)

Pricing impact
Name and number printing is included in the base price. No additional charge from us. You can charge more at retail to capture the perceived value (most programs do).
| Item | VIP base | Logo only retail | Logo + name + # retail |
|---|
| Wicking tee | $23.86 | $35 | $40 |
| Long sleeve | $29.88 | $42 | $45 |
| Hoodie | $36.88 | $55 | $58 |
A program selling 18 player tees at $40 retail vs $35 retail captures an additional $90 in margin just from the customization upcharge.
