Print Methods for Unity School Apparel
The right print method depends on order size, design complexity, and garment type. Here's how we handle Unity orders:
Screen Printing — For Larger Team and Fan Orders
Screen printing is the standard for Unity team uniforms, booster club orders, and event shirts where quantity is 24 or more pieces. It produces durable, vivid prints and is the most cost-effective method at higher quantities. Our 6-color, 8-station automatic press handles production efficiently for school-volume orders.
DTF Printing — For Small Quantities and Full-Color Designs
DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing is available with no minimum order. It is the right choice for individual name and number jerseys, staff shirts in small quantities, or any design with photographic detail or gradients. DTF works on polyester and performance fabrics that screen printing does not.
Embroidery — For Hats, Polos, and Premium Gear
Embroidery is used for polos, hats, jackets, and bags. It produces a professional, durable result. We digitize artwork in-house before embroidery production. Embroidery is common for coach apparel, staff polos, and premium spirit items.

- Church groups and community events
- Fundraiser apparel
- Family reunions and custom events

Turnaround and Ordering
Standard production turnaround is approximately two weeks from art approval for most orders. Rush options may be available depending on order type and production schedule. Contact us to discuss timeline before placing an order if you have a hard deadline.
For spirit store purchases, orders are fulfilled individually through the online store — no group coordination required. Items ship directly or are available for local pickup depending on the order.
Artwork and Design for Unity Orders
We have a professional graphic arts background and can prepare or adapt artwork for production. If you have an existing Unity Rockets logo, we can work with it. Vector files (AI, EPS, SVG) are preferred for screen printing. For DTF, high-resolution raster files also work well.
