Club kit starts from ยฃ11 per t-shirt, ยฃ12 per cap, ยฃ15 per polo, ยฃ30 per hoodie and ยฃ50 per tracksuit set of hooded top and matching jogger, all at the 50-piece minimum. Bottles and towels start from ยฃ12 each, with the exact price on quote. As a garment order grows the per-piece rate falls by up to 35% from that starting figure.

What does club kit cost a member?

Most committees work out a member price rather than a club price, because the order is usually part-funded by the people wearing it. A tracksuit set from ยฃ50 is the headline item and the one that needs explaining to parents; a tee from ยฃ11 and a cap from ยฃ12 are the pieces that get bought without much thought.

Clubs that add a small margin on top to fund the subsidised items find the whole order easier to run. What matters is that the figure quoted to members is the figure they pay, because collecting a shortfall afterwards is the part that goes wrong. Our sports clubs page lists the garments we produce for squads.

Polos start from ยฃ15 a piece at the 50-piece minimum.

How do sponsor logos change the print price?

Each additional logo is another decoration position with its own setup, not a multiplier on the garment price. A club crest on the chest and a sponsor on the back is two positions; adding a second sponsor to the sleeve is a third. The setup is spread across the run, so the effect per garment falls sharply as quantity rises.

Where cost does climb is stitch count on embroidery. A detailed crest with fine lettering stitches far more thread than a simple badge, and that difference is per garment rather than per order. How embroidery stitch count affects cost explains where the threshold sits.

Does squad numbering add to every piece?

Numbering and names are applied individually, so they are per-garment work rather than a one-off setup. That is the opposite of how a club crest behaves, and it is why a fifty-piece numbered order does not benefit from scale in the same way as a plain one. Clubs often number only the playing kit and leave training wear unnumbered for exactly this reason.

It also affects reordering. A numbered garment is specific to one player, so a mid-season replacement is a single item that no production run can make. Plan the spares in plain kit and the numbering separately.

Which quantity tier should a club aim for?

The bands are 50-99, 100-249, 250-499, 500-999 and 1,000 plus, measured per design. A club with a senior and a junior section, or several teams in the same colours, can often combine into one run and land two tiers higher than any single team would reach alone.

  • Combine teams on a shared design rather than ordering per team.
  • Order a full season in one run instead of two half-season runs.
  • Put the surplus into club stock rather than leaving the tier unclaimed.

The same logic applies to a hoodie run shared across sections, which is worked through in club hoodies for UK sports clubs. Tier details are on the wholesale overview.

What does adding a second garment cost a club?

A second garment is a second design with its own fifty-piece floor, so the honest answer is that it costs another full run rather than a marginal amount. A club adding a cap from ยฃ12 alongside a hoodie from ยฃ30 is committing to fifty caps, and caps are only worth it if the club will genuinely distribute that many.

Where a second item earns its place is when it serves a different group. A training tee for players and a crested polo for coaches and committee reach their own fifties from different audiences, so neither depends on the other. Adding an item that competes for the same buyers as the first is what leaves boxes in the clubhouse a year later.

FAQ

Quick Answers

Common questions about wholesale, answered.

Not quite. Bottles start from ยฃ12 each and towels from ยฃ12 per towel including branding, at 50 per design, but the exact price is quoted per style and size, because the specification varies far more than it does on a tee or a polo. Send the quantity and spec and we price against it.

On embroidery, yes, because the price follows stitch count and a detailed crest uses considerably more thread. On screen printing the driver is the number of colours rather than the detail in the artwork.

The order and the invoice are placed by the club as a single job, so collecting from members is handled at your end. Most clubs collect before placing the order rather than after it arrives.

Transit is quoted separately from the per-piece figure. We deliver to the UK, the USA and Europe and invoice in seven currencies, so the shipping element depends on where the kit is going.
