Surprise Mom with Garden Signs This Mother’s Day

If you run a football team and the start of the season is fast approaching, you'll have a number of responsibilities that you need to address in a timely manner. One task that you shouldn't forget is ordering the signage that your team will need once the season begins. A football team can use a variety of signs, including vinyl banners. A local custom sign company can produce banners in the size and style that you want, as well as adorn them with colors, words, and images that are consistent with your organization. Here are some banners that you'll likely want to order for your football team.

Parade Banner

In many communities, football teams take part in one or more parades throughout the season. For example, if you play in a small town that strongly supports your team, there might be a parade that takes place just before the first game of the season. Toward the end of the season, your team may take part in a homecoming parade. A banner that your team captains can carry — featuring the name and logo of your team — will be important. You may also want to add a message to the community on the sign, such as "Thank You For Your Support."

Breakaway Banner

It's common for football teams to make a big entrance when they emerge onto the field before the start of each game, and one way of doing so is running through a banner that tears down the center. You won't want to attempt this with a conventional vinyl banner, as it's durable and won't give you the desired effect of breaking apart. Instead, order a breakaway banner from your custom sign company. This is a banner that can feature your team's colors, names, and a slogan, but that has a seam down the center. The two halves of the banner are connected with hook-and-loop fasteners, so you can reuse the banner for each game.

Fan Banner

While some fans may bring their own banners to your games, you may wish to order your own banner that your fans can use during the game. Some teams have a tradition of placing an enormous banner at one end of the grandstand and having the fans work together to pass the banner along. This can create a neat visual effect, as the banner will slowly make its way around your stadium. This banner should be in your team's colors and feature your logo, team name, and other pertinent information.
