Tournament weekends drive the highest concentration of spikeball roundnet apparel demand on the calendar. Players want a tournament-specific tee as memorabilia from the bracket they played. Teams want matching jerseys for the day. Tournament directors want event merch they can sell to attendees. Bear Grips Pro Shops handles all three: per-team jerseys at no MOQ, bracket tees with the event name on the back, and tournament organizer merch sold to the attending teams.
Three types of tournament tees
- Team tournament tee: per-team custom design with team crest and player names. Worn during play.
- Bracket memorabilia tee: tournament-name tee sold to attending players as event memorabilia.
- Tournament organizer giveaway: branded tee bundled with the entry fee, distributed at check-in.
Design elements for tournament tees
- Event name and year: front center or back upper print. Pacific Open 2026, Atlanta Roundnet Slam, etc.
- Venue and city: front or back text. Anchors the event in a place.
- Bracket or division: open division, intermediate, advanced. For multi-division tournaments.
- Sponsor or partner logos: lower back or sleeve placement.

Do I need to pre-order or can players order day-of?
Both. Pre-orders ship before the event. Day-of orders ship after the event. The director never holds inventory.
Can sponsor logos be added to the tournament tee?
Yes. Sponsor logos placed on the back lower, sleeve, or front lower position. Multiple sponsors fit cleanly with proper layout.
How fast does the tournament tee design need to be finalized?
About a week before the event for pre-order fulfillment. Two weeks is safer for guaranteed pre-event delivery.
