Is It Worth Having a Practice Uniform in Addition to a Competition One?

Short answer? Yes. Practice uniforms offer benefits that go far beyond just “looking coordinated.” They support your team culture, logistics, and budget in ways many coaches don’t realize.

Here’s why it makes sense:

  • Consistency in training: When athletes wear the same thing to practice, it reinforces discipline and creates a focused mindset.

  • Branding: Even during training sessions or local scrimmages, a branded practice uniform helps your team look organized and professional.

  • Preserve your competition gear: Athletes won’t wear out their premium gear before big events if they have a dedicated training set.

  • Budget-friendly for new members: New athletes might not be ready to invest in full competition uniforms right away. A more affordable training set can be a great first step.

You don’t need to go all-out. A branded t-shirt, tank, or leotard with matching shorts or leggings can be enough. And if you work with Bold&Grit, we can design your practice set to complement your competition look, while keeping it affordable.
