Team T-Shirt

[darkland8]

Hey i'm from a new team and we're working on new team t-shirts and i was curious as to what other teams shirts looked like, and also i was curious as to how much each team associates themselves with the schools they are connected to (like do you mention your school name or your shirts and such).

sorry if this is the wrong place for this thread but i wasn't sure where to put it

These are all of the t-shirt designs over our history from the beginning to the black, red and white tie die we wear today. I would recommend making it a priority too display your sponsors (which your school; should be considered one) since they have taken a chance on your team and it is the respectful thing to do.

There should be some pictures of the IRI T-shirt quilts around CD-Media. Those have a pretty good sampling of team shirts. (You could also search CD-Media with the term "T-shirt" and see what comes up between the T-shirt cannon pictures.)

There are a few tendencies that I've noticed in the teams that wear T-shirts:

Team T-shirts tend to have the team logo (front and possibly a smaller one on the back) and a list of sponsors (back). If the logo doesn't include a number, the team number is typically placed somewhere on the shirt. Sometimes teams also put the FIRST logo on their shirts; be sure to review the logo guidelines if you go that route.

The worst team shirts I've seen were the ones where it looked like the instructions were, "Go get a white T-shirt and mark it with team identifiers." Those students didn't look much like they belonged together; a common shirt really helps show who goes with which team.

If, for some reason, you can't get a custom team T-shirt (cost is typically around $10 apiece), then your next-best bet is to choose a team uniform so that everyone matches, and so that you look reasonably professional, and go with that.

Hey! The front of my teams shirts say our team name and have a picture of a train on it. The back have our number and our team slogan. A great website to use to help design the shirts is customink.com. It helps you design the shirt so you know what it looks like on the shirt. Then when you're done designing just print it out and take it to the place you are using to print your shirts.
