As the heat of summer gives way to the chill of fall, many American sports fans have one thing on their minds: soccer. As one of America’s favorite pastimes, American football offers people two different opportunities: to be a spectator or to be a player. From youth flag football leagues to high school teams to college and professional teams, there are many levels of players. And even if they do play, people across the country love to watch the sport, too. Fans of all ages turn on the TV or head to the local high school, college or professional stadium from September through January to see their favorite teams in action.
It doesn’t matter if they are players or spectators, people love to let the world know who their favorite team is. They get involved by going to the games, getting in line earlier, and cheering wildly during. Parents use stickers or other items to show support for the youth league or high school team; People of all ages wear replica logo jerseys or sweatshirts to represent their favorite college or professional team. To get even more involved in how well a high school or youth team can do, some people will host fundraisers so the team can enjoy some great gear and high-end uniforms. Here are a couple of unique ideas on the best way to show your team spirit and how to have a successful youth soccer fundraiser.
If you want a fun and cool way to accessorize your look, consider wristbands. Made of 100% silicone, they can be designed in a wide variety of colors. So imagine this: if your team colors are blue and orange, you’re spoiled for choice. You can get one blue and one orange wristband and wear them on the same wrist on one of each wrist. Or you could get a bracelet with segmented colors, half orange and half blue. For even more eye-catching pop and talk value, you can get one in a swirl pattern. Or go for a more subtle look with blue on the outside and orange on the inside. On top of all that, you can add your team name printed right on the band. The options are truly endless, and with a unique wristband like that on your arm, you’re sure to be marked as a committed fan.
What’s even better is that those same wristbands can be the foundation for a popular and successful fundraiser. Youth leagues and high school teams need extra money for equipment, uniforms, and travel to distant games (even out of state!). Wristbands can be the backbone of an effort to raise money for fan buses, team hotels, or other necessary expenses. They can be customized with your particular team’s colors, logo and rallying cry, making them a “must have” for fans of the team. Wristbands are popular with all ages, from kids to parents to grandparents, so you’re sure to sell plenty before and during games. Plus, because you can order them at lower wholesale prices, you’ll make even more money on each one you sell. And you might even consider getting matching key chains, elastic bands, and silicone rings. Your team’s fans will go crazy for the silicone accessories and your fundraiser will be on the road to success. Just remember to always be creative and have fun with your team spirit look!
