UniformsCSLL has longstanding relationships with some great local businesses, including
Play it Again Sports in Soquel and
Sport About Graphics. Included with every registration is a player game jersey, undershirt, hat, belt, pants, and socks. All you need to provide for your player is their mitt, cleats, and helmet. Each team in the league will be issued a set of bats, catcher's gear (face mask, chest protector, shin guards, catcher's mitt), so you do not have to invest these things if you don't want to.
The coach/manager/team parent/etc. of your team will hand out the jerseys and caps to the players when they become available, which is typically a week or two before picture day. The accessories (undershirt, hat, belt, pants, and socks) are gathered at Play it Again Sports in Soquel by way of a voucher system. Simply hand an employee your voucher, tell them you player's team, and they will get all the items you need. They will have a standard set of goodies that they will give you, including a predefined brand and model for each item. If you feel the need to upgrade any of those items, you can use the store credit for the item to make the upgrade. It's quite simple and has been a very good model for a number of seasons now.
Many teams will wish to add "spirit wear" to their team's look. This is a fun thing to do, and there are many ways to go about doing this, including online options. Our local printer, Sport About Graphics, prints all of the league's jerseys, so it can be simplest to use them for your team's spirit wear and many of the league's team go this route.
Higher divisions will also typically purchase "practice jerseys" for their team, which many times can be worn at practice and as an undershirt for game days.
EquipmentPlay it Again Sports in Soquel also has a lot of great new and used equipment for players of all ages. CSLL recommends checking with their staff to ensure that the equipment is appropriate for the player.
If you have any questions about this, please feel free to reach out to a seasoned team parent and/or board member.
