Team pins are not just for baseball and softball teams.
This type of pin is also popular in other types of sports, such as lacrosse, football, basketball, volleyball, soccer and hockey. Depending on the players, pin trading may or may not occur. Not all of your players may be into pin trading. However, it never hurts to have a large supply of pins available to your players, especially for the ones that want to trade pins with other teams.
What usually happens, is that initially a few players won’t want to trade pins. They act uninterested or just too cool. Once they start seeing all of the other cool pins their teammates get, soon they want to join in and start trading, too.
Team Pins Can Be Custom Designed Using Different Styles
There are different types of team pins available. Additionally, you can customize them with your team’s colors, logos, and other information. Pin styles include die struck, photo etched, soft enamel, silkscreen printed, and offset printed. Moreover, each type of style uses different methods in order to create individual pins.
The level of detail you want in your pin design can limit which styles you can use. In fact, some designs restrict the number of colors and the amount of detail. For example, silkscreen pins work best for simple artwork and designs with just a few colors. Additionally, working with a professional pin designer can help ensure your final product is both eye-catching and appropriate for your sport.
Whether your team is just starting out or you’re heading into a tournament season, custom team pins add excitement and a sense of camaraderie. They make great keepsakes, encourage interaction with other teams, and serve as lasting mementos of your sports journey. From team bonding to memorable trading moments, custom pins bring players together in a unique and meaningful way.
