Sport-Tek Moisture-Wicking Polos for Tennis Clubs: Styles and Setup

Sport-Tek builds performance fabric for high-output athletic use. Their polo shirts use moisture-wicking technology that pulls sweat away from the skin, allowing it to evaporate quickly during intense rallies and long match play. The fabric also resists odors and holds its shape through regular washing better than basic cotton alternatives.

For tennis specifically, the collar holds its structure through movement without folding or bunching during overheads and serves. The fabric weight is light enough for hot summer courts but substantial enough to print cleanly with detailed logos and multiple colors.

Both the men's cut and women's cut are tailored for athletic movement. The women's version is fitted without being restrictive, which works well for players who prefer a performance fit on court.

The standard placement for tennis club polos is a left-chest print approximately 3 to 3.5 inches wide. This is the same placement used on sponsored polo shirts at professional tournaments and reads as immediately recognizable as a club uniform.

Some clubs add a secondary print on the right sleeve with the year established or a tagline. Others leave the polo as a clean single-chest print. Both options work at no additional cost. Bear Grips charges a flat base price that includes unlimited design colors and elements.

If you want to match an existing embroidered hat, keep your polo logo design slightly bolder with clean lines that print sharply at the chest scale. Fine details that work at hat-scale embroidery sometimes need slight simplification for printed polo applications.

Bear Grips carries the Sport-Tek Men's Performance Polo with a VIP base price of $34.88. It is available in a wide range of colors and runs in sizes from small through 4XL. The performance fabric makes it a better choice for on-court use than the Gildan cotton pique alternative.

The Gildan Men's and Women's Premium Cotton Pique Polo offers a more traditional club feel with a slightly heavier weave. Clubs that want a more formal, less athletic look often prefer the Gildan pique for member dining events or club social functions.

For women, the Sport-Tek Women's Skort pairs naturally with a polo as a complete club uniform set. Clubs that want to offer a coordinated look for women's programs can include both the polo and skort in the same shop under the same logo.

If you are on the free plan, one of your three product slots can be a polo. Most clubs on the free plan choose polo, tee, and hat as their three products. That covers the most common purchase scenarios for new members.

Clubs on the VIP plan at $59/month can add both men's and women's polo styles as separate products, alongside tees, hats, hoodies, and more. The VIP base price on polos is $34.88, saving $7 per item compared to the free tier base price of $41.93.
