I'd Rather Be Fishing - Almega Sports' Partnership With An Up And Coming Champion

Wil Epps is ready for his 2014 tournaments.

     Most fourteen year old guys are focused on one of two things- video games or girls, maybe even both. But for freshwater tournament fisher Wil Epps, nothing beats a good day on the water with a rod and reel in his bass boat powered by Yamaha V Max. He loves fishing so much in fact, that he is a two time FLW Youth Division state competitor, coming in 7th place in the state in 2013.

     For his 2014 competitions Wil needed to look like a serious, professional competitor- and for that his dad David contacted us at Almega Sports. David wanted a personal one of a kind design that not only showcased Wil's sponsors, but also featured everything Wil had in mind. Working with Almega Sports personable staff- getting one on one consulting to get sponsor permission and create artwork- we created a fully sublimated, original fishing jersey in an efficient time window, managing to feature all of Wil's sponsors- his major two being Fitzgerald Rods and Slick Stix.

His most recent catch is the 9 pound 6 ounce large mouth bass shown below. Wil also competes in the Haven Hospice Youth Tournament, as well as the Wolfson Children's Hospital Bass Tournament. Wil plans to take on a partner and compete in the World Finals in 2015.

Custom Uniforms

There are so many choices when it comes to custom team uniforms.  Screen printing, embroidery, sublimation, and tackle twill are all great choices, but what is the difference between them?  Which choice is the best fit for my team and my budget?  Almega Sports has you covered.  We are specialist in custom team uniforms and we will explain the different options that are out there.

Screen printing is a very popular and affordable option for team uniforms.  Screens can be placed on virtually any fabric and come in multitude of colors and designs.  Screens can also be customized to any logo and transferred easily to jerseys and fan apparel.  This provides the most cost effective and versatile option while not sacrificing on your design and desired style for your team. 

Embroidery is often reserved to corporate team shirts, coaching shirts, and small logo designs.  This option is more expensive than screen printing.  However, embroidery offers a very professional and clean look for polo style coaching shirts, team bags, and even fan apparel and traditionally offers a longer life on the design.

Sublimation is a great choice for custom team uniforms.   It is the latest concept in uniform design.  Sublimation takes a blank white uniform and chemically injects colored dyes deep into the fabric.  While this option is more expensive then screen printing, it provides a long lasting product with greater versatility when it comes to unique designs. 

Tackle twill is most often seen in baseball, basketball and football jerseys.  This is a great option when the uniform is required to be used for multiple seasons.  This type of uniform offers a professional look and lengthy durability.  It is the choice of all professional sports uniforms.  Tackle twill is the customized stitching of machine cut fabric in multiple layers onto the surface of a uniform.  While tackle twill is the most expensive uniform available, the durability of the product proves to be most cost effective in the long run.

Almega Sports is your custom uniform team specialist.  We offer screen printing, embroidery, sublimation, and tackle twill team uniforms.  Our team of designers will assist you in every step of the uniform process from logo design to fan apparel.

Team Uniforms

There is now more pressure than ever to save money in every area possible.  Unfortunately, extracurricular activities such as, school athletics often fall victim to necessary budget cuts.  Recreational leagues and travel ball clubs are also feeling the pinch when it comes to securing sponsors for their teams.  However, where there is a will there is a way and ball is being played on fields and courts across the country. 

Now that athletic directors, coaches, and team sponsors are required to be more creative than ever with  budget dollars, the question on where to purchase team uniforms will be a top priority.  Internet team dealers are sometimes chosen to provide uniforms at an inexpensive price.  However, buyers beware.  There are often downfalls to purchasing team uniforms at 
                                                   a bargain basement price. 

In a recent interview with Coach Mike Walker, co-owner of Almega Sports, he addresses the benefit of choosing a locally owned and operated uniform supplier over Internet sales.

We are experts in the area of team sales and custom uniforms.  Our dedicated and experienced team sales department will help you customize your team uniforms and have your players stand out on every field while keeping your team budget in bounds.  We have you covered!
