Sports are simply part of the fabric that unites Americans. Whether it’s a neighborhood basketball game, a Pop Warner football game, or a professional baseball game, you can guarantee fans will be passionately cheering on the sidelines in support of their team. However, while sports like basketball, football, and baseball — dubbed America’s favorite past time — have long been apart of America’s history of athletics and recreation, lacrosse is beginning to garner more and more attention.
Lacrosse is becoming one of the fastest growing sports in America, with a whopping 1.6 million people participating in this exciting contact sport last year. That’s a staggering 37.7% increase. In fact, lacrosse participation as a whole has increased by 218.1% over the last 10 years.
As such, it’s likely that you know one or two lacrosse athletes and fans, if you aren’t already one yourself. Why not share in your love of lacrosse and get the season started off right by giving custom lacrosse gifts? Not only do custom gifts make for great sports gifts, but they also help to build anticipation and excitement for the season ahead. This passion translates onto the playing field. In addition, the personal touch adds an element of sentimentality.
While there are a variety of custom and personalized lacrosse gifts to choose from, perhaps one of the most popular is personalized tee shirts and other custom gear such as sweat pants, wind breakers, and hooded sweatshirts. There are a variety of designs to choose from, or you can create your own by incorporating you favorite team’s colors or mascot.
If you’re looking for something a bit more unique, consider lacrosse ornaments. While Christmas may be months away, lacrosse ornaments can be hung anywhere as a fun and festive accent. Similar to t shirts or personalized gear, you add your team’s favorite colors, or perhaps included an inspirational quote or message.
