Bear Grips Pro ShopsYouth 50/50 Hoodies for Teams, Schools, and Fundraisers
- The Gildan Youth Hoodie ($36.88 VIP base) and Youth Crewneck Sweatshirt ($33.88 VIP base) run on 50/50-family cotton-poly fleece sized for kids.
- Youth orders often mix sizes across a wide age range, which single-piece printing handles without a bulk minimum.
- Fundraiser and team orders work best when the shop stays open for a set window and each family orders their own sizes directly.
- No minimum order means a small team of 10 kids costs the same per-unit as a 50-kid league order.

Why No Minimum Matters More for Youth Orders
A youth roster rarely orders in even numbers. Some families order two, some order none, and a late sign-up shows up after the "final" count already went to print. With no minimum order, every family orders their own size directly through the shop link, on their own schedule, and the print run adjusts automatically to actual demand instead of a locked-in headcount from three weeks earlier.
Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.Running a Team or School Fundraiser Order
- Set up the shop with one youth hoodie or crewneck design (team logo, school mascot, grad year, or program name).
- Set the retail price to include the fundraiser markup. For example, $36.88 base plus a $12-$15 markup funds the program while staying reasonable for parents.
- Share the shop link in the team group chat, school newsletter, or parent email list.
- Keep the shop open for a defined window (2-3 weeks is typical) so families have time to order without the sale dragging on indefinitely.
- Each order ships directly to the family in about a week, no group pickup or size-sorting required on the organizer's end.
Handling a Wide Age Range in One Order
Because printing happens per order rather than in a locked bulk batch, a single fundraiser shop can carry youth sizes for the younger kids and adult sizes for older siblings, coaches, or parents who want the same design, all from the same product listing without splitting into separate size-limited batches.

Youth and adult sizes, no minimum, no size-breakdown deadline. Every family orders their own.
Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
Is there a minimum number of youth hoodies I need to order for a team?
No. Each family orders their own size and quantity directly. A 10-kid team costs the same per unit as a 50-kid league.
What if a family orders late, after the "deadline"?
As long as the shop stays open, a late order still prints and ships normally. There is no locked print run to miss.
Can the same design come in both youth and adult sizes?
Yes. Youth and adult versions of the same design can both be listed, covering the full family size range in one shop.
How much can a fundraiser markup add per hoodie?
That is fully up to the organizer. A common range is $10-$20 profit per hoodie on top of the base price, all of which goes to the program.
