Why Custom Tennis Kit Matters Ahead of Wimbledon 2026
There’s nothing quite like Wimbledon fortnight. The fans, the grass, the Centre Court roar, the clean kit, the history. As the oldest Grand Slam, Wimbledon still sets the tone for tennis style, from elegant white clothing to the sharp, professional look of every player walking onto court.
The Championships have also moved with the sport. Recent years have brought more technology, including live electronic line calling, while the famous dress code remains part of the event’s identity. Wimbledon’s predominantly white rule has deep roots, with Time tracing the tradition back to Victorian ideas around propriety and sweat control.
That mix of tradition and performance is exactly why custom tennis kit matters. When a squad watches the official championships, then steps onto its own tennis court in matching colours, it feels part of something bigger.
Custom branding and colors in teamwear help create a professional appearance and foster unity among team members. Personalized sportswear can boost players’ confidence and club pride, making them feel more connected to their team.
A strong example is a club running a summer “Wimbledon Festival”. Juniors play in the morning, adults play in the afternoon, families stay to watch, and the new tennis apparel is unveiled on finals day. Simple. Memorable. Built for success.
Building Your Custom Tennis Kit: Core Pieces Every Team Needs
A proper custom tennis kit should work for training, league matches, school fixtures and summer events. At My Club, our tennis wear range includes custom tennis shirts, polo shirts, shorts, skorts and optional off-court layers to keep the whole team looking sharp.
Custom tennis kits can be designed to meet the unique specifications of teams, allowing for complete control over the clothing design. That means colours, patterns, sponsor space, crest position and the final style are all treated with care.
Core on-court pieces include:
- Tennis shirts, ideal for juniors, club ladders, team training and fast match play.
- Polo shirts, a classic choice for captains, coaches, school teams and official championships.
- Shorts, with a generic option for training and a tennis-specific option for match performance.
- Skorts, built for women, girls and mixed squads who want comfort, movement and a polished finish.
- Optional layers, including jackets, hoodies, tracksuits and bags for travel days, cooler evenings and presentation photos.
Custom tennis kits typically include options for various apparel types such as shirts, dresses, shorts, and jackets, which can be personalized with team logos and colors. My Club’s focus for tennis is on shirts, polo shirts, shorts and skorts, with extra teamwear available when your club wants a wider range.
Each item is made from performance fabrics designed for breathability, and ease of movement during long rallies on hot June and July days. Breathable, lightweight tops and shorts help maintain agility, especially when players need to split-step, sprint, serve, recover and hit again.
You can go traditional with Wimbledon-inspired white, or choose bold colour-blocked club designs for league nights, indoor winter tennis or even squash sections that share the same house style.

My Club Tennis Clothing & Polo Shirts
Tennis shirts and polo shirts are the foundation of most tennis kits. They’re the first thing people see when your players arrive, warm up and walk onto court.
Our custom tennis shirts start at £19.50. Our polo shirts start from £22.50. Custom tennis shirts and tops generally start at around £19.50, which includes design, player names, numbers, sponsors, and badges.
That matters when you’re managing money for a grassroots club, a school squad or a full academy programme. You get a professional finish without asking families to pay elite-level prices.
Bespoke, moisture-wicking fabrics regulate temperature and prevent chafing during long matches. Our lightweight performance fabric helps players stay cool through tie-breaks, hot afternoons and back-to-back fixtures. Designs are sublimated into the fabric, so the print will not crack, peel or fade like basic transfers can.
Style options include:
- Crew neck match shirts for a modern tour-inspired feel.
- Classic-button polo shirts for captains, coaches and traditional teams.
- Alternative panels, sleeve accents and stripe layouts.
- White designs with narrow club trims.
- Bolder colour designs for non-Wimbledon tournaments and training.
The free online kit builder lets coaches and captains upload a logo, choose colours, test patterns and preview custom tennis shirts before ordering. Many custom sportswear companies offer online kit builders that allow teams to design their own apparel by selecting colors, patterns, and logos, providing a user-friendly interface for customization. We’ve built ours to make the process simple, fast and useful.
Whether you need men’s cuts, women’s sizing, junior shirts or simple t shirts for warm-ups, we help you create a tennis kit that looks unified from first serve to final handshake.
Tennis Shorts & Skorts: Comfort, Movement, and Fabric Choices
Lower-body comfort is huge in tennis. Players lunge wide, recover fast, chase drop shots, slide on artificial courts and load through the legs on serve. If the shorts or skorts fight the movement, the player feels it straight away.
My Club offers two shorts options:
- Generic shorts at £13.25, a strong choice for training, multi-sport sessions and tight budgets.
- Tennis-specific shorts at £24.50, made using woven interlock fabric instead of generic interlock or pindot.
The tennis-specific shorts are built for the demands of the sport. Woven interlock gives extra structure and durability, with a smoother feel, better drape and improved ball pocket support during service games and long rallies. Generic shorts are generally lighter and versatile, but tennis-specific shorts give a clear advantage when the match gets intense.
Custom skorts are £22.50. They include built-in shorts, comfortable waistbands and enough stretch for aggressive baseline play, net approaches and quick changes of direction. Some players ask about skirts, but skorts are widely chosen because they combine the look players want with the coverage and confidence they need.
Tailored apparel offers moisture management and maximum mobility. That is vital when players are moving for two hours, not just posing for the team photo.
Every pair of shorts and every skort can be matched with your shirts or polo shirts. The outcome is a complete tennis kit for mixed squads, women’s squads, juniors and adult league teams.
Designing a Wimbledon-Inspired Look With My Club
Wimbledon’s dress traditions are famous for a reason. Predominantly white kit, clean cuts and minimal trim create a look that feels calm, sharp and competitive. The All England Club’s rules are strict for players, with white being the key standard, while clubs can take inspiration without copying every regulation.
For your club, that could mean:
- A white shirt with subtle trim in your club colours.
- A white polo with a refined crest on the chest.
- Matching white shorts or skorts with small accent details.
- A bolder alternate kit for away matches, training or indoor leagues.
- Sponsor logos placed neatly so the whole design still feels premium.
Integrating a club’s logo and design elements into tennis kits enhances team identity and recognition during matches and tournaments. Our designers can help adapt your crest, sponsor marks and colour palette so they work on lighter fabrics, darker alternates or both.
This is where custom tennis becomes more than clothing. It becomes a signal. Players feel ready. Parents notice the detail. Sponsors get value. Younger ages see the older squad and want to be part of it.
Think summer evenings, rackets in hand, club finals under a low sun, and a champion lifting the internal trophy in kit created for that moment.
How the My Club Custom Tennis Process Works
We support clubs from first idea to final delivery. Whether you’re ordering for a junior squad, a school team, a company tennis day or several teams across one club, the process is built to keep things clear.
Here’s how it works:
- Choose your garments, shirts, polo shirts, shorts, skorts or extra layers.
- Use the free online kit builder or work with an account manager.
- Upload your logo, sponsor artwork and design ideas.
- Confirm colours, names, numbers and sizes.
- Approve the artwork.
- We move into production and manufacturing.
- Your kit is produced, checked and delivered.
The process of creating custom tennis kits can involve using an interactive kit builder or working with an in-house design team to ensure the final product meets team branding needs. Custom sportswear design tools often include features for integrating team logos and branding elements, enabling teams to create a cohesive look that represents their identity.
The use of advanced design software in sports kit design allows for high levels of customization, including the ability to visualize designs in 3D before finalizing orders. That helps committees, coaches and captains make decisions with confidence before the order is confirmed.
Bulk orders of custom tennis apparel can take approximately 5-6 weeks from order confirmation to delivery, including design finalization, manufacturing, and shipping. For Wimbledon 2026, we’d advise getting started well before the rush. If you want kit in hand before 29 June, aim to approve designs by April or early May.
Personalisation is part of the service. Names, numbers, club badges and sponsor marks help teams present themselves properly at tournaments, open days and league nights.
For larger clubs, assign one organiser to gather sizes, check sponsor artwork and convert committee feedback into one final brief. It saves time and keeps the whole process clean.
Preparing Your Club For the Summer Tennis Season
The UK summer term comes fast. School fixtures, LTA-style local competitions, holiday camps and social events all build around the same window. Wimbledon gives the spark, but your club has to be ready to use it.
A simple plan works best:
- Confirm squad lists in early spring 2026.
- Decide whether you need one design or separate designs for men’s, women’s and junior teams.
- Finalise sponsors and artwork before ordering.
- Place orders 8 to 10 weeks before Wimbledon.
- Plan a kit handover night or launch session.
- Use the new kit to promote open days, taster sessions and internal tournaments.
A polished tennis kit supports participation and pride, but tennis gear matters beyond clothing too. Grip size is essential; improper sizing can cause wrist strain or racket twisting. Proper customization acts as a natural defense against tennis elbow and wrist strain.
Modifying static weight, balance, and grip size transforms how the racket feels. Open string patterns help generate spin, while dense patterns offer more control. When players combine the right racket set-up with breathable kit, they’re better prepared to play freely.
That doesn’t mean overcomplicating things. It means doing the basics well. Good fit. Good fabrics. Good footwear. Correct grip. A racket that suits the player. A kit that lets them move.
For events, consider branded hoodies, jackets, tracksuits and bags alongside the on-court tennis apparel. These pieces help on travel days, team photos, cooler evenings and awards nights. They also give the majority of the club a way to wear the same identity, even if they are not playing that day.
If your club also runs squash, gym sessions or multi-sport camps, keeping one visual style across the wider clothing range makes everything feel connected.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should we order custom tennis kit for Wimbledon 2026?
Clubs and schools should ideally confirm designs and place orders at least 8 to 10 weeks before Wimbledon 2026. That means aiming for April or early May 2026 if you want your tennis kit delivered before the tournament starts on 29 June.
Typical lead times are around 5 to 6 weeks, but early ordering helps avoid peak-season pressure, late artwork changes and sizing delays.
Can we create different designs for our men’s, women’s, and junior tennis teams?
Yes. My Club can adapt one core club design into several versions for men’s, women’s and junior squads. You might keep the same logo, colours and sponsor layout, then adjust cuts, panels or trim details.
Keeping a consistent colour palette helps every team feel connected, from youngest juniors to senior league players.
Do you only supply white kit, or can we use bold colours and patterns?
We can create both. Wimbledon itself is known for its predominantly white dress code, but your club kit can use almost any colour combination for local leagues, training, school matches and non-Wimbledon events.
Many clubs choose one white summer kit and one bolder alternate kit. It gives players flexibility across the season.
Is there a minimum order quantity for custom tennis kit?
The minimum order quantity for custom tennis apparel is typically five items, with no minimum required for subsequent orders. That makes it easier for clubs to place an initial team order, then top up later when new players join.
Minimums can vary by garment type and product range, so contact My Club for the latest numbers on shirts, polo shirts, shorts and skorts.
Can sponsors be added to our custom tennis shirts and polo shirts?
Yes. Sponsor logos can be added to tennis shirts, polos and other tennis apparel, usually on the chest, sleeves or back depending on the design.
For the best result, send high-resolution or vector artwork. Sharp sponsor artwork makes the final kit look more professional and helps your sponsor feel properly represented.
