- Athletic 7-inch mesh shorts for practice. No minimum.
Sprint team warmups need specific design considerations: pull-on and pull-off easily between heats, hold body temperature during blocks-to-tape minutes of recovery, and read athletic and explosive in team photos. Below are the catalog pieces that fit sprint athletes (100m, 200m, 400m, hurdles, relays), with the layout and pricing math for a typical sprint squad.
The Quarter-Zip: Race-Day MVP
The Men's Performance Quarter-Zip Pullover (Sport-Tek, $35.95 Free, $29.88 VIP) is the sprint-team race-day piece. Pull on between heats to hold heat, unzip and pull off for the next block start. The pullover hoodie doesn't work well for this because it has to come over the head, which sprinters mid-meet often don't want.
The Comfort Soft Hoodie: Everyday Sprint Identity
For around-school and pre-meet warmup, the Comfort Soft Hoodie ($44.94 Free, $36.88 VIP) is the sprint team default. Print "SPRINTS" or "100M" or "RELAYS" across the back in athletic block. School name front.

Practice Shorts For Sprint Workouts
The Athletic 7" Mesh Shorts (No Pockets) (Sport-Tek, $32.92 Free, $26.88 VIP) are the sprint-team practice short. No pockets means no flapping fabric during top-end speed work. The 7-inch inseam fits the sprint-athlete preference.

Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
Why a quarter-zip instead of a full hoodie?
Sprinters change clothes more often during a meet than distance runners. Pulling a full hoodie over the head between heats is awkward. The quarter-zip pulls off the chest and shoulders quickly.
Should each sprinter have their event on the hoodie?
For squad-wide identity, "SPRINTS" works across the team. For event-specific pieces, individual hoodies with "100M," "200M," "RELAYS" let athletes own their specialty.
Are mesh shorts allowed in competition?
Most state federations allow practice mesh shorts as warmup-only. Competition tanks and shorts have stricter identification rules. Check your federation's uniform rules.
How does the program earn per sprint hoodie?
At VIP base of $36.88 and retail of $58, the program earns $21.12 per Comfort Soft Hoodie sold. See the coach revenue math guide for full numbers.
