Problem
Youth and recreational sports clubs struggle with the logistical and financial burden of ordering team gear. Traditional methods require upfront inventory purchases, involve complex coordination with multiple vendors, and leave clubs with little to no fundraising margin, while parents face confusing ordering processes and delayed deliveries.
Solution
Club Lab offers a comprehensive platform that builds, manufactures, and delivers custom team stores for free. The service handles everything from a quick 5-minute onboarding form to a fully branded online storefront, live within 48 hours. Parents and players order directly from the store, customizing names and numbers, while Club Lab's in-house factory sublimates and ships each item directly to the player's doorstep. This model eliminates inventory risk and middlemen, ensuring clubs retain the fundraising margin on every order.
