Rowing Team Names FAQ

How do we pick a rowing team name?

Water puns work best, like Seas the Day or Pier Pressure. Pick one the whole boat will be happy to wear.

Can we put the boat or seat names on the shirts?

Yes. Many crews put the team name on the front and each rower’s seat or name on the back.

When should we order our shirts?

Order a few weeks before you need them. That leaves time to approve the design, collect sizes, and have the shirts arrive in time.

Can I get help with the design?

Yes. Start in the Design Lab, and Custom Ink’s Inkers can help with fonts, colors, and placement.
