Team Store Program — Free Online Stores for Coaches & Booster Clubs

We'll build your team's online store for free.

If you coach a youth team, organize a travel program, or run a booster club, you already know the pain: collecting checks, chasing sizes, ordering minimums, sweating delivery dates. Town Gear Essentials Team Store Program eliminates all of it.

We build a private online store for your team — designed in your team colors, stocked with your gear, open for a 2-week pre-order window. Every parent orders their own size and customization. We produce and ship everything in one shipment to you or directly to families. You collect nothing. You chase nothing.

What You Get — Free

  • A dedicated team store landing page on towngearessentials.com
  • Your team logo and colors built into every product
  • Custom uniforms, hoodies, sweatshirts, hats, accessories — you choose the catalog
  • Individual sizing and player name & number on every order
  • 2-week order window, then production begins
  • A single drop-shipped consolidated order to your address (or direct to each family)
  • No minimums, no upfront fees, no inventory risk for you

How It Works

  1. Submit a request. Email info@TownGearEssentials.com with your team name, sport, season, and roster size estimate.
  2. We design. Within 5 business days you receive mockups of every product. Approve or request edits.
  3. We launch. Your team store goes live for a 2-week pre-order window. We send you a link to share with your parent group, team Facebook, or text chain.
  4. Parents order. Each family orders their own player's size, name, and number. Payment goes through Shopify direct — no checks, no Venmo chasing.
  5. We produce. Once the window closes, production starts. 2-week turnaround for sublimated uniforms, faster for screen-print and embroidery.
  6. You receive. One bulk shipment to your address, or individual ship-to-each-family. Your call.
