Team stores in Canada · Minor hockey

Minor hockey team stores with nothing up front.

Yes, your team or association can sell its own gear without paying a cent up front. We open a free 30-day store with your crest, parents order and pay for their own gear, and every order comes back in a bag with the player's name and team, in one box to the rink. The association gets 25% of every sale before tax.

What parents can order

Hoodies, quarter zips, tees, toques, hats, jackets and pants, with your crest. You pick the range. Pieces that come in youth sizes show YS to YXL above the adult sizes, so a whole family can order in one go.

Sorted by team, bagged by name

One store can cover the whole association. At checkout, buyers pick their player's team from your list, like U9, U11 A or U13 AA. When the store closes, every order goes in its own bag labelled with the player's name and team, and you get a report by team, name, item and size. No sizing night, no cash at the rink and no box of leftovers in the equipment room.

When to run it

A drop takes about nine weeks: 30 days to order, 30 days to make it and a few days to ship. For gear before the holidays, open the store by early October. Most organizations run two a year, a season opener and a holiday store, and late orders roll into the next one.

Who does what

How it compares with other hockey fundraisers

A store is slower than a pizza kit drive, but there is no delivery night and no cash to count, and the gear gets worn all season. See the side-by-side with pizza kits and chocolate.

Team Drops is run by TEAMLTD, a Canadian brand, and isn't affiliated with any league or governing body. Your store carries your association's own crest. Here is how a team store works in general.

Questions

Does a team store cost our association anything?

No. There is nothing to pay up front and no minimum order. Parents pay for their own orders at checkout, and the association gets 25% of every sale before tax at delivery.

Can one store cover every team in the association?

Yes. Buyers pick their player's team from your list at checkout, so every bag is labelled with the player's name and team, and the report breaks orders down by team.

Do you have youth sizes?

Yes. Pieces that come in youth sizes show YS to YXL above the adult sizes. Youth hoodies come without a hood drawcord.

When should we open a store to have gear before the holidays?

A drop takes about nine weeks from opening day to hand-out, so open by early October for gear before the holidays.

What if a parent misses the deadline?

Late orders roll into the next drop. Most organizations run two a year: a season opener and a holiday store.

Is Team Drops tied to a hockey league or federation?

No. Team Drops is run by TEAMLTD and isn't affiliated with any league or governing body. Your store carries your association's own crest.
