With Custom Team Apparel Your Athletes Look Sharp, Play Sharper

Bobbie Quinn - Thursday August 22, 2013

custom team apparelYou know how the old saying goes … “The clothes make the man.”

Well in the sports world, some would argue it’s more appropriately: “The apparel makes the team.”

Custom team apparel is one of the simplest ways to effectively increase the confidence of your players, improve your team’s moral and psychologically enhance athletic performance. There are 3.5 reasons why teams truly benefit from custom gear:

1. Look Good, Feel Better, Play Best

Most athletes would tell you they play their best when they feel good about themselves. One of the easiest ways to boost self-confidence is dressing to impress. So why shouldn’t that apply to the field?

Psychologically speaking, self-esteem is a major factor when it comes to performance. With custom team apparel, your players won’t just look like champions, they’ll feel like champions. And feeling like a champion is the first step to actually becoming a champion.

When they know they look sharp in their team gear, you’ll know they look sharp at game time.

2. Clothing Cohesion

Custom team apparel doesn’t just boost your individual players’ self-esteem, but the moral of your team as a whole. (Team apparel … it’s not just a clever name!)

With new custom gear, your players won’t just look good; they’ll become more cohesive as a unit. The unifying power of wearing a shared color and logo helps to develop a strong identity and build camaraderie between teammates. Custom team apparel goes a long way to helping players feel like they are a part of something bigger — a group, a collective, a family, a team. 

Whether it’s warm-ups they wear together to meals, hoodies or track jackets worn while traveling or a great looking uniform opponents instantly recognize, custom gear gives your team an identity.

3. Be Proud…

When you give your team custom apparel, you’re not simply giving them an identity, but pride as well.

Athletes feel instant pride in their team when they sport their custom apparel.

Picture a team eating a meal together in a dining hall, or a group of players walking through an airport on their way to a tournament: they walk tall and proud because they know they are representing their school/team/club, teammates and themselves.

This sense of pride — born from custom team gear — reminds them that they play for more than the name on the back of the jersey, but for the others wearing those colors around them.

3.5. …Be Loud

Who fears a prideful team? Opponents, that’s who!

A well-dressed, unified team is an intimidating team. When your players look the part of a champion, your opponents will treat them as such.

Give your team the identity of a champion and help build moral with custom team apparel from Gladiator Guards, the industry-leader in custom mouthguards.
