Fédérations et ligues : équiper tous vos clubs avec un seul partenaireFederations and leagues: kit out all your clubs with a single partner

Plusieurs clubs, des identités différentes, un calendrier commun et des effectifs qui bougent : équiper une fédération, une ligue ou un comité n’est pas équiper un club en plus grand. Voici ce que propose Flare Custom, fabricant européen (atelier en Bulgarie, UE), et les six points à vérifier avant de choisir votre partenaire.

Several clubs, different identities, a shared calendar and squads that change: kitting out a federation, league or committee is not just kitting out a bigger club. Here is what Flare Custom, a European manufacturer (workshop in Bulgaria, EU), offers, and the six points to check before choosing your partner.

Straight answer

Which partner should kit out a federation, a league or several clubs?

A manufacturer that handles several designs in one order, with no minimum per club, and reorders single pieces during the season. Flare Custom produces in full sublimation in its workshop in Bulgaria (EU): jersey at €25.90 excl. VAT for 20 and €16.84 for 500, names and numbers included, one proof per design, production in 2 to 5 weeks after approval and an online club shop for members.

Updated 16 October 2026 · prices excluding VAT; applicable VAT is added according to the country of delivery.

Comment choisir un partenaire pour équiper toute une ligue sportive amateur ?

How do you choose a partner to kit out an entire amateur sports league?

Six points décident de la réussite d'un équipement de ligue, et ils se vérifient tous avant la commande : la capacité à décliner une identité différente par club sur une base commune ; le minimum de commande, qui conditionne le réassort en cours de saison ; la façon dont le budget est construit et à quel niveau les paliers de prix s'appliquent ; les délais rapportés au calendrier de compétition ; le circuit de validation, club par club ; et l'existence d'un interlocuteur unique côté fabricant.

Six points decide whether league kit succeeds, and all of them can be checked before ordering: the ability to give each club its own identity on a shared base; the minimum order, which governs repeat orders mid-season; how the budget is built and at what level the price tiers apply; lead times measured against the competition calendar; the approval process, club by club; and whether there is a single point of contact on the manufacturer's side.

Le piège classique est de ne comparer que le prix unitaire d'un maillot. Sur une ligue, ce qui coûte cher n'est presque jamais le maillot : c'est le club oublié dans le comptage, le joueur qui arrive en janvier, la commande minimale qui interdit un réassort de trois pièces, et le retard qui tombe la semaine de la première journée.

The classic trap is to compare only the unit price of a jersey. Across a league, what costs money is almost never the jersey: it is the club left out of the count, the player who joins in January, the minimum order that rules out a top-up of three pieces, and the delay that lands in the week of the opening fixture.

1. Une base commune, une identité par club

1. One shared base, one identity per club

Une ligue veut de la cohérence sans uniformiser : le même modèle de maillot, la même coupe et le même tissu pour tous, mais les couleurs, le logo et les sponsors de chaque club. En sublimation intégrale, cette déclinaison ne coûte rien de plus : les couleurs sont illimitées et sans surcoût, et changer une couleur d'un club à l'autre ne change ni le prix ni le délai. Une ligue de douze clubs peut donc partir d'un modèle unique et sortir douze tenues distinctes.

A league wants consistency without uniformity: the same jersey model, cut and fabric for everyone, but each club's colours, logo and sponsors. In full sublimation, that variation costs nothing extra: colours are unlimited and free, and changing a colour from one club to the next changes neither price nor lead time. A league of twelve clubs can therefore start from a single model and end up with twelve distinct kits.

2. Le minimum de commande décide de votre saison

2. The minimum order decides your season

C'est le critère le plus sous-estimé. Un fabricant qui impose un minimum de dix ou vingt pièces vous convient très bien au lancement, quand chaque club commande son lot — et vous bloque dès le mois de novembre, quand un club a besoin de deux maillots pour deux nouveaux licenciés.

This is the most underestimated criterion. A manufacturer imposing a minimum of ten or twenty pieces suits you perfectly at launch, when each club orders its batch — and blocks you by November, when a club needs two jerseys for two new members.

Chez Flare Custom, la production démarre dès 1 pièce, au lancement comme en cours de saison. Le design de chaque club est conservé : un réassort se commande à l'identique, sans refaire de fichier ni de bon à tirer.

At Flare Custom, production starts from 1 piece, at launch and mid-season alike. Each club's design is kept on file: a repeat order is placed identically, with no new file and no new proof.

3. Le budget : à quel niveau s'appliquent les paliers

3. The budget: at what level the tiers apply

Les prix baissent par paliers de quantité — c'est la règle chez tous les fabricants. La vraie question, sur une ligue, est de savoir sur quoi la quantité est comptée : sur la commande de chaque club séparément, ou sur le volume de l'ensemble. L'écart entre les deux se chiffre en milliers d'euros sur une ligue entière.

Prices drop in quantity tiers — that is the rule with every manufacturer. The real question, on a league, is what the quantity is counted on: each club's order separately, or the combined volume. The gap between the two runs into thousands of euros across a whole league.

Posez la question explicitement lors de la demande de devis, et faites écrire la réponse dans le devis. C'est aussi le moment de cadrer la facturation : au nom de la ligue, ou de chaque club séparément selon votre organisation.

Ask the question explicitly when requesting the quote, and have the answer written into the quote. It is also the moment to settle invoicing: in the league's name, or each club separately, depending on how you are organised.

4. Les délais, rapportés à votre calendrier

4. Lead times, measured against your calendar

Un équipement de ligue se planifie à l'envers, en partant de la première journée de compétition. Comptez environ cinq à six semaines entre la demande de devis et la livraison : 48 heures ouvrées pour le devis, la validation du bon à tirer, puis deux à cinq semaines de production selon le produit et le volume, et environ six jours ouvrés de transport. Pour une urgence, une option express est possible sur demande, dès 72 heures selon le produit et la quantité.

League kit is planned backwards, starting from the opening fixture. Allow around five to six weeks between the quote request and delivery: 48 working hours for the quote, proof approval, then two to five weeks of production depending on the product and volume, and around six working days in transit. For emergencies, an express option is available on request, from 72 hours depending on the product and quantity.

Sur une ligue, ajoutez le temps de collecte des tailles et des effectifs auprès des clubs : c'est presque toujours l'étape la plus longue, et elle ne dépend pas du fabricant. Lancez-la avant même de demander le devis.

On a league, add the time it takes to collect sizes and squad lists from the clubs: it is almost always the longest stage, and it does not depend on the manufacturer. Start it before you even request the quote.

5. Le circuit de validation, club par club

5. The approval process, club by club

Rien n'est produit sans bon à tirer validé. Sur une ligue, cela veut dire un bon à tirer par club, chacun validé par la personne qui engage le club — pas un accord global qui ferait porter à la ligue la responsabilité d'une erreur de couleur sur le maillot d'un club.

Nothing is produced without an approved proof. On a league, that means one proof per club, each approved by the person who commits that club — not a blanket sign-off that would leave the league carrying the blame for a colour error on one club's jersey.

Le configurateur permet de faire circuler chaque projet en interne, avec des versions successives, des commentaires et des approbations : le président valide, le trésorier commande.

The configurator lets each project circulate internally, with successive versions, comments and approvals: the chair approves, the treasurer orders.

6. Un interlocuteur unique

6. A single point of contact

Douze clubs qui écrivent chacun de leur côté à un service commercial générique, c'est douze fils de discussion et autant d'occasions de perdre une information. Demandez un interlocuteur identifié, qui connaît le dossier de la ligue, ses délais et ses douze designs.

Twelve clubs each writing separately to a generic sales inbox means twelve threads and as many chances to lose a piece of information. Ask for a named contact who knows the league's file, its deadlines and its twelve designs.

C'est aussi ce qui permet un réassort rapide : le design est déjà en base, la commande se passe en quelques minutes.

That is also what makes a fast repeat order possible: the design is already on file and the order takes a few minutes.

How can one supplier kit out every club in a league?
One order can group several designs: one per club, plus the league’s shared kit. Each design has its own proof, sizes, names and numbers. Volume pricing is counted per design, and each club can reorder from 1 piece.
What budget to kit out one club in a league?
Jersey: €32.38 excl. VAT for 10, €25.90 for 20, €24.61 for 50. Shorts: €24.88 for 10, €19.90 for 20. −5% on complete kits (top + bottom of the same sport) from 5 kits. Names and numbers are included.
Do you respond to tenders and consultations?
Yes. We provide a detailed quote per product and tier, product sheets (fabrics, sizes), our terms and conditions and the company details of OLB Sports OOD (Bulgaria, EU). Payment is 100% on ordering; another schedule can be considered on request, after reviewing the file.
Can members order for themselves?
Yes, with an online club shop created free of charge by Flare Custom: each member picks their size, name and number and pays online. The club sets its prices and can add a margin, paid out monthly.
What lead time for a season or a tournament?
2 to 5 weeks of production after proof approval, then 6 working days’ delivery in Europe. For the start of a season, launch the proofs 6 to 8 weeks before the first match, club by club.
Can we keep the same design for several seasons?
Yes. The approved file is kept: identical reorders from 1 piece. Between two productions far apart, slight shade variations remain possible (different fabric and ink batches).
What criteria should you use to choose a jersey supplier for a club?
Check nine points before signing: the minimum order (at launch and for reorders), the lead time after proof approval, what the customisation includes (colours, logos, names, numbers), the fabrics on offer, how the price tiers are counted, whether there is a proof, after-sales service for defects, the place of manufacture and the tools to manage several teams (group order, club shop). At Flare Custom: from 1 piece, 2 to 5 weeks after proof approval, customisation included, made in Bulgaria (EU).
