Printing Recreational Sport T-Shirts
Competitive sports are a part of any t-shirt business. Both uniforms and spirit wear for competitive baseball/softball, football, soccer, basketball and hockey are big profit niches. But recreational sport T-shirts can also become an important niche.
Recreation sports are physical activities pursued more for fun than for competition. They focus on leisure and social interaction. Some examples might include pickleball, hiking, swimming and fishing.
Become the Expert
Grow your t-shirt business by sharing your passion. One of our local pickleball players has a side t-shirt business. She brings her “kit” with her each time she plays and takes orders in between games. Her kit is a 3-page printout of designs. You choose the design and color/style of shirt, and she delivers it the following week. Everyone at the court knows we can get shirts from her, and she adds new designs to keep her offering fresh.
Paddleboarding has a passionate audience, making it a great recreational t-shirt niche
