A team tent
A team canopy in your colors, with the team name on the valance and your mark on the roof, is where families find each other at a tournament. It shades the bench at summer games and marks the team's spot at meets. Your own logo goes on if you have the rights to it.
Running an event
- Check-in tent at the entrance, for teams and runners.
- First aid, easy to find from anywhere on the grounds.
- Water station for a 5K course.
- Team store for spirit wear.
First aid tents use plain words and a color that stands out, not a red cross, whose use federal law restricts.
Sponsors
"Proudly sponsored by" puts a sponsor's logo on the roof of the team tent: a perk a local business will pay for, since the tent is in every photo all season.
From the shop: Weigh every leg. A canopy on a windy field can lift even when it looks calm; sandbags or water weights on each leg keep it down.
