Is your team gearing up for company sports events but missing matching gear? Or maybe you’re planning a group trip and worried about keeping everyone together in the crowd? We’ve got you covered! Matching team shirts are the perfect way to stand out, create unity, and give your group a strong, cohesive look.

In this post, we’ve rounded up 10 different team shirt ideas to inspire you for your next team events. Let’s get to it! 

1. Corporate team shirts

Every company should have matching t-shirts. They’re perfect to wear for conferences, team-building events, or a casual day at the office. When it comes to designing corporate team t-shirts, it’s pretty straightforward: just choose a t-shirt type that you like and add your company logo to it. Logo shirt designs enhance the professional look of your team and help showcase your company style. You can find the right t-shirt design and logo placement guide

2. College sports teams

Having matching team t-shirts is a crucial part of every college sports team. They not only help represent the school but also contribute to team spirit and pride among students. 

The most common designs for college team t-shirts include the institute’s logo, crest, or mascot. Check out the best t-shirts for printing from our catalog and create custom t-shirts that fully represent your institute’s identity and team spirit. 

3. Competing teams

Whether for a dance contest or an amateur volleyball tournament, having matching team t-shirts is a must for every team that competes. Customize team shirts by adding your group’s name or logo to keep it cohesive and professional-looking. For an added touch, personalize the t-shirts with each team member’s name to make it even more special.

4. Fraternity/sorority shirts

Matching t-shirts for fraternity/sorority groups are more than just an apparel item—they’re a symbol of a brotherhood/sisterhood and a shared life experience. Whether worn for a casual day on campus, at a fun social event, or a themed party to kick off the new semester, these shirts proudly showcase the Greek organization a student belongs to.

To create a unique fraternity/sorority shirt design, incorporate the Greek letters in a prominent yet stylish way by choosing a trendy font and colors that reflect your chapter’s identity. To express the values and traditions you believe in, try adding custom graphics and slogans to the design. 

5. Matching slogan shirts

By customizing slogan t-shirts, you create shirts that are suitable for a variety of team events. They’re versatile because they can fit different themes and occasions while still conveying a strong team spirit through a unifying slogan.

Whether for a sports tournament, team-building activity, or fundraising campaign, matching slogan shirts help unite team participants and enhance their sense of belonging. It also ensures that your group stands out and is easily recognizable at any event.

6. Family reunion shirts

Being part of a family is being part of a team, which makes family reunions the perfect occasion to create matching team shirts. They not only unite family members but also serve as a sentimental keepsake to remember the great times you’ve shared. Customize t-shirts for family reunions by adding your family’s last name, the year of the reunion, and perhaps a special symbol that enhances the sense of togetherness. 

7. Charity group shirts

Matching custom t-shirts for charity groups is a great way to unite a team that’s fighting for a special cause. Whether for a fundraising event, volunteer activity, or awareness campaign, having coordinated shirts helps to create a unified group appearance, making it easier to identify and engage with the team.

To create a shirt design for a charity group, incorporate the charity’s name, logo, or a meaningful slogan that represents the cause. These shirts can also be sold at the event to raise funds that support the cause. 

8. Travel teams

If you’re organizing a trip with your family, friends, or favorite club, consider creating matching t-shirts for your travel team. They’re perfect for finding each other in crowds and keeping the group together. 

To create a shirt design for a group trip, include the name of your travel team, a fun graphic, a slogan, or go all out with a trendy, bold design on the back that showcases the year of your trip and travel destination.

9. Bachelor/ bachelorette shirts

Organizing a bachelor/bachelorette party takes a village—or some might say a team. Creating custom t-shirts for the groom/bride and the guests is a perfect way to add that extra layer of fun and unity to the celebration. Just like team shirts for sports or charity events, these personalized bachelor/bachelorette shirts bring everyone together and create lasting memories of the special occasion.

Customize the shirt designs with fun quotes, the groom’s/bride’s last names, and graphics that go with the theme. T-shirts like these will not only make the party special but also remain in your closet as a cool throwback to fun times. 

10. Parent teams 

When parents team up to support their children’s growth and work towards common goals great things happen. If you’re a part of a mom/dad club or other parent group and you don’t have matching team shirts yet, it’s time to take matters into your own hands. 

Customize a shirt design with the name of your group or with a shared slogan that you and your mates can wear at meetings or on casual outings, proudly showcasing your role as a parent.
