Side by Side

Old Way vs. Your New Pro Shop Way

Same three problems. Two very different answers.

Old Way
$2K to $5K
Bulk-Order Gamble
  • Inventory from past orders still in your office
  • XS, S, XL sit in the bin for months
  • Pieces go missing. You give the rest away
Your Pro Shop
$0 UPFRONT
No Inventory Ever
  • Member orders one, we print one
  • Zero cash tied up. Zero boxes to store
  • Profit hits your dashboard, not a bin
Old Way
3 WEEKS
To Reorder Anything
  • 24, 36 or 48-piece minimums per color
  • Charged per color, per placement, per design
  • Sold out of sizes or colors players want
  • Can't say yes without $2K + 3 weeks
Your Pro Shop
~1 WEEK
Door to Door
  • No minimums. Order 1 or 100, same price
  • Unlimited colors, designs, placements
  • Players pick size and color at checkout
  • USA printed and shipped free to their door
Old Way
2 WASHES
Until It's Cardboard
  • Print cracks, shirt stiffens, color fades
  • Players stop wearing it
  • You and the refs reach for off-brand polos
Your Pro Shop
50+ WASHES
Still Soft
  • Premium blanks: Bella+Canvas, Champion, Sport-Tek
  • Soft on day 1, soft after 50 washes
  • Coaches reach for the tournament hoodie, not the other brand

Tournament Director Reviews

Hear from pickleball tournament directors and club captains running this today.

Quality, sizing, time. The three things every owner wants to know about, answered by the tournamentes already running their apparel through us.

MR
Mike R.
Tournament Director · 75 players
Q: DO PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT POLOS HOLD UP THROUGH A FULL BRACKET WEEKEND?

"Tournament director, 280-player monthly bracket plus a regional qualifier twice a year. Used to bulk-order tournament polos from Custom Ink and pay $9 hidden shipping per polo. Sport-Tek dri-fit polos and Bella+Canvas tees through the Pro Shop. Players wore them through morning brackets, medal rounds and the awards podium. Print sharp, fabric still pulling sweat at the gold-medal match. Sponsor stack readable on the back from the bleachers."

JT
Jenna T.
Head Referee · 182 players
Q: A LATE REGISTRANT WANTS A TOURNAMENT SHIRT THE NIGHT BEFORE.

"Used to print 30 extra tournament shirts and end up giving them away. Now every player picks their own size and color from the link the moment they register on the tournament app. 4.5 men's doubles registrant who signed up at 9pm the night before still got the bracket shirt and dri-fit tee to the door by the second morning. Women's racerback tanks for the women's doubles draw, men's tees for mixed doubles."

RK
Ryan K.
Tournament Director · 330 players
Q: I DIRECT THE TOURNAMENT, REF THE FINALS AND RUN THE DESK. WHO BUILDS THIS?

"Tournament director, head referee, registration desk, all the same person. Done-For-You plan built the entire tournament store: bracket tees, dri-fit polos, embroidered ref hats, spectator hoodies, sponsor-stack shirts. I send the tournament logo and sponsor list once a season. Tournament cleared $5,200 in shirt profit our first bracket cycle, funded the gold-medal trophy upgrade outright."

Tournament Director & Club Questions

The questions we get asked most

Can we print our pickleball tournament logo, bracket name and sponsor stack on custom pickleball tournament apparel?+

Yes. Every tournament tee, polo, hoodie, sweatshirt and embroidered hat supports your tournament logo, year, division callouts (3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, Open), bracket names (Men's Doubles, Women's Doubles, Mixed Doubles, Skinny Singles) and sponsor stack. Pickleball tournament apparel, pickleball tournament shirt designs, pickleball tournament t shirt ideas, pickleball tournament merch and pickleball tournament outfits for players and the host crew. Unlimited design elements on one side, no per-color fee.

Do you make pickleball tournament approved paddles, balls, nets or court equipment?+

No. Tournament-approved paddles, balls, nets, court squeegees and ball machines are specialty court equipment. Specialty pickleball brands handle that side. What we do best: pickleball tournament apparel and pickleball tournament attire for the host crew and the bracket players. Tournament tees, dri-fit polos, racerback tanks for women's doubles, mesh shorts, embroidered hats for the head ref and the desk crew, hoodies for the cold-morning early rounds.

Do you offer pickleball tournament shirt design contest options, custom shirt designs and ideas for shirt themes?+

Yes. Run an internal pickleball tournament shirt design contest, then upload the winning design to your shop. The Done-For-You plan can also generate pickleball tournament shirt ideas and pickleball tournament t shirt designs around your venue, bracket structure and sponsor stack. Print the winning design on tees, polos, dri-fit, hoodies and embroidered hats. Spectator shirts get printed alongside player shirts in the same drop.

Can players, refs and spectators order pickleball tournament shirts directly from the shop URL?+

That's the whole point. Drop your tournament shop link in the player check-in email, the tournament app, the bracket-PDF, the league newsletter or pin it on the tournament Instagram. Players, partners, refs and spectators check out themselves with their size and color. Pickleball tournament t shirts, tournament polos, dri-fit tees and embroidered hats ship to their door free in about a week. Late registrants still get the bracket shirt before the first morning warmup.

Will tournament dri-fit polos and tees hold up to a long bracket weekend, sun, sweat and weekly washes?+

Yes. Sport-Tek moisture-wicking dri-fit, Bella+Canvas tees, embroidered Sport-Tek polos, Champion hoodies, Yupoong and Richardson embroidered hats. Real tournament-grade fabric, not the thin promo polo from a generic tournament store. Players wear them through morning brackets, afternoon medal rounds and the awards podium. Print and embroidery still sharp at the end of the weekend. Pull samples from your dashboard at base price first.

We already use Custom Ink or Squadlocker for pickleball tournament shirts. Why switch?+

Three reasons most tournament directors switch within a season. Shipping: theirs charges $8 to $10 per order, hidden. Ours is free, every order. Fees: theirs charges per color, per placement, per embroidery. Ours is one flat base price, unlimited colors. Permanence: theirs is one-off campaign-by-campaign. Ours is a permanent pickleball tournament apparel store at your URL year-round, ready for every monthly bracket, the regional qualifier, the year-end championship and the offseason league play.

Do I pay anything when a player orders? What about tournament director and head-ref gear?+

Zero cost when a player orders. They pay the retail price you set. Your $8 to $16 profit lands directly in the tournament dashboard. The rest covers our base price for printing, packing, and free USA shipping. For tournament director polos, head-ref hats and desk-staff shirts, build a Tournament Staff section and self-order at base price. Watch every order land in real time on your phone between brackets.
