The Sports & Game Day DTF Transfers collection at Marie Gems holds 24 ready-to-press listings: 21 single designs from $2.00 and 3 transfer bundles at $18 each. It covers designs for football, soccer, baseball, basketball, dance, cheer and team families. They are DTF transfers, not finished shirts.
I run Marie Gems, a DTF transfer shop in Wichita, Kansas, with more than 500 orders shipped and no minimum order, and October is football season, so this is the collection I would look at for a team, a booster club or a tailgate. I print every transfer myself, in house.
What is in the Sports & Game Day collection?
The Sports & Game Day DTF Transfers collection holds 21 single designs and 3 bundles. I counted the single designs by title into five groups, and the group names are my own labels.
| Group | Designs | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Football | 7 | Tailgate Ready Football, Touchdown Football |
| Soccer | 6 | Game Day Soccer Ball, Soccer Balls and Bows |
| Sports mom, cheer, dance and team parents | 5 | Team Mom Whistle, Cheer Mom Pom Poms |
| Seniors | 2 | Senior 2027 The Final Inning, Basketball 27 Senior |
| Coaches | 1 | Coach Bow |
Which football designs are in the collection?
Seven single designs are built around football, from bold tailgate graphics to bow and floral styles. Tailgate Ready Football features an engraved football with burnt-orange motion lines and stars, printed with full opacity so the orange shows on light and dark fabric. Touchdown Football is a bold football graphic, and its photo shows camouflage-pattern lettering over a checkerboard. The rest are Touchdown Game Day Football, Game Day Football Checkered Floral, Tis the Season Football and Drinks, Tis the Season Football Bow and Purple Football Mom Bow.
Which soccer, senior and coach designs are there?
Six soccer designs, two senior designs and one coach design are in the collection. Game Day Soccer Ball is an engraved soccer ball with red motion lines, stars and bold game-day lettering, built for soccer parents. The other soccer designs are Colorful Soccer Collage, Loud and Proud Soccer Mom, Soccer Balls and Bows, Soccer Mom and Soccer Mama. The Class of 2027 designs are Senior 2027 The Final Inning, which the listing says marks a baseball player's last season and is built for senior night and team gifts, and Basketball 27 Senior. Coach Bow is the design for the person running the sideline.
What do the three sports bundles hold?
The three sports bundles each hold five different 12x12 transfers for $18, which saves $2 compared with five singles at $4 each. Shirts, garments and digital files are not included.
| Bundle | Price | Designs |
|---|---|---|
| Sports & Game Day Volume 1 | $18 | Touchdown Game Day Football, Touchdown Football, Tis the Season Football and Drinks, Tis the Season Football Bow, Game Day Football Checkered Floral |

My post on Mama DTF transfers shows examples of the sports and dance mom designs that also sit in the Mom & Mama collection.
What does a team order of game day DTF transfers cost?
A team order costs $2.00 to $4.00 per shirt, and buying 5, 10 or 20 of the same design in one size lowers the price. Every single design in this collection uses the same ladder.
| Size | 1 transfer | 5 transfers | 10 transfers | 20 transfers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4" | $2.00 | $9.00 | $17.00 | $32.00 |
| 6" | $2.50 | $11.25 | $21.25 | $40.00 |
| 8" | $3.00 | $13.50 | $25.50 | $48.00 |
| 10" | $3.50 | $15.75 | $29.75 | $56.00 |
| 12" | $4.00 | $18.00 | $34.00 | $64.00 |
For a 16-player roster with the same design at 10", the cheapest mix is one 10-transfer order, one 5-transfer order and one single, which costs $49.00 ($29.75 plus $15.75 plus $3.50). Twelve shirts at 12" cost $42.00 ($34.00 plus two singles at $4.00), against $48.00 for twelve singles. My size guide lists 10" as popular for adult shirt fronts and 12" as the full-size option.
What do I need to press game day DTF transfers?
You need a compatible blank and a heat press, plus 320°F for 15 seconds with firm, even pressure and a cold peel. My listings say to wash inside out on a cold, gentle cycle. My post on how to choose a heat press for DTF transfers shows which platen sizes fit 4" to 12" designs, and my DTF pressing guide has the settings. If your team needs its own logo or names, you can upload your own artwork for a custom transfer priced by size, from $2.00.
