Adult gymnastics coaches signal the program every minute they are on the floor. A branded coach polo, embroidered with the program logo, immediately separates staff from athletes and presents a professional program identity to drop in visitors, new member prospects, and meet day spectators. The full coach wardrobe (polo, jacket, warm up jogger, hat) runs across the same Pro Shop the program uses for athlete apparel. Here is the coach uniform program guide.

The coach uniform pieces

Embroidery vs print for coach apparel

Coach polos look the part with embroidery, not screen print. Embroidered left chest logo on a piqu polo reads as professional gym staff. Print on a polo reads as merch shirt with a collar. The Pro Shop catalog routes polo and hat orders to embroidery automatically; tees, hoodies, and tanks route to screen print. The program does not pick the customization method per order, the catalog handles it by garment type.

10 coaches2 polos1 hat$996

Staff apparel is typically program funded (not sold). The program pays for coach uniforms as a cost of doing business. Athlete apparel is sold at retail markup, member to program.

Coach name on the polo, yes or no

Adding the coach first name (Coach Sara, Coach Mike) under the embroidered logo is a strong identity move for adult gymnastics programs. Adult students are more likely to remember and refer to a coach by name (versus youth where parent communication happens through the program). Per piece embroidery supports individual name customization at no extra cost. Each coach gets their personalized polo, ships individually if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Whats the embroidery setup fee?

No setup fee. Per piece embroider applies to polos and hats. Same cost whether the program orders 1 polo or 50.

Can the polo come in womens cut for female coaches?

Yes. Mens and womens cuts available on the same logo design. Each coach orders their cut and size.

Should coach apparel be the same color as athlete apparel or different?

Usually different. Coaches in a distinct color (often navy, black, or program accent color) stand out on the floor. Athletes in the program tee color. Different color, same logo.

Are warm up jackets in the catalog?

Quarter zip pullovers (mens and ladies) are the closest catalog piece. They layer for floor coaching in cool gyms.
