Track & Field and Cross Country Team Tents
Track and field and cross country teams rely on a quality custom canopy tent to shade athletes from the sun and protect them from wind, rain, and snow.
We’ve helped countless track and cross country teams like yours design custom-printed canopies, flags, and walls to show off their school spirit at track meets across the country.
TentCraft’s engineered durability and easy-to-setup MONARCHTENT frames come with a lifetime warranty - giving team coaches and school administrators the confidence that their new tents will handle whatever your student athletes or the weather can throw at them.
MONARCHTENTS Provide Protection Your Team Deserves
TentCraft knows a thing or two about how to build custom pop-up canopy tents that can stand up to tough weather. That’s because we control the entire manufacturing process in the good ol’ U.S. of A — and we have an in-house team of engineers who nitpick every little detail of our custom structures to ensure they last a REALLY long time.
Our heavy-duty MONARCHTENT pop-up frames come with certified wind ratings that start at 35 mph when properly ballasted. That wind rating is issued by a professional, third-party engineering firm and is backed up by a lifetime frame warranty.
For sports that routinely compete in unpredictable weather conditions, like track and cross country, we can add on walls, doors, and clear windows to your tent to keep your athletes warm and protected from the elements.
Your Team's Custom Printed Canopy Made to Perfection
School pride is important. We're here to help you live up to the hype.
Our dedicated print and art teams are here to:
- Match your organization’s colors to the canopy and help you incorporate a high-resolution graphic of your team’s most important symbols, logos, and slogans.
- Guide you when you're unsure how you'd like your tent to look. Ask for the “artist choice” tent and watch our magician artists create something that really stands out in a sea of tents.
- Use processes and printing technology that holds for the long term. We use dye-sublimation (the ink becomes part of the canopy fabric) so you don’t have to worry about peeling or cracking down the line.
Custom Flags & Accessories
Do you really want to stand out at your next athletic competition?
Complement your tent with a custom flag and banners. Our lineup of event flags includes custom feather flags, rectangle flags, teardrop flags, shark fin flags, and wind dancer flags.
And all heavy-duty MONARCHTENTS include a free double-sided, custom-printed peak flag or peak banner.
All flags can be completely customized with your school’s branding. We print any color single-sided or double-sided.
Sporting Event Tents for Volunteers, Information Centers, and Concessions
Those critical volunteers who help organize and put on sporting events also need protection and a branded presence.
Examples:
At track meets, for example, many schools invest in a smaller pop-up tent, like a 5x5, for race check-ins, and then 10x10 for the timing crew.
At a football game, boosters may set up a concession stand underneath a branded tent. And at a golf tournament, organizers may set up hydration stations throughout the course. (We also sell a custom table cover to really help you stand out!)
TentCraft is here to help those volunteers stay comfortable as they contribute to the success of youth sports.
How it Works: Designing Custom Sports Team Tents
The true beauty of a custom team tent is that your tent doesn’t exist today - and it’s not collecting dust on a shelf in a warehouse. TentCraft follows a build-to-order business model, which allows us to cut down on waste and deliver your custom project in record time.
1. The process starts with a phone call to determine the size and configuration of your tent. The more information you can provide on your use case, the easier it is for our team of tent experts to come up with the perfect solution.
2. Next up is designing your tent. Most teams have a general idea of what they want their tent to look like and send us their artwork, but others consult our in-house art team to come up with a spectacular design. Our team is more than capable of creating an "artist choice" custom-printed canopy tent for your sports team or working with you to execute your vision to perfection.
3. Once that’s decided, our production team starts handcrafting your tent and typically turns around the project in 3-5 business days.
4. We then ship it out to anywhere in the country.

Team Tent FAQs
- What is the production time for a custom team tent?
-
Because TentCraft manufactures all of its frames in America (Traverse City, Michigan, to be exact!) we turn around custom projects really quickly. Depending on our current workload, we can typically turn around your project in three to five days.
- How much do custom team tents cost?
-
The final cost of your tent depends on many different factors, from size, to printed graphics, to accessories, to where we need to ship it to... you get the idea. We like to tell potential customers they should be comfortable investing at least $2,000 - $3,200 with us on a custom solution that will last a really long time.
- Do TentCraft tents come with certified wind ratings?
-
Our heavy-duty pop-up tent, MONARCHTENT, includes a certified wind rating of 35 mph. Our lineup of frame tents is engineered to withstand even more powerful winds when properly ballasted.
- Does TentCraft sell tailgate tents?
-
Prospective customers often ask us if we can manufacture a custom tent for tailgating. Of course, our answer is “Absolutely!” We can produce any type of pop-up tent that would perform well during a tailgate party.
Full disclosure: Requests for custom tailgating tents often are misaligned with customer expectations due to our tents higher cost than a Wal-Mart or EZ-Up frame. We're building frames with more aluminum and engineering meant for rigor that some people aren't trying to achieve with their tailgate tent.
If you're looking for a fully-customized, all aluminum tailgate tent that's American-made quality, then let’s chat!
Example of leg engineering and and material difference of frames:
- Should I leave my tent up for extended periods of time?
-
No. Pop-up tents are built to be temporary and taken down after each use. Taking down your tent will ensure the longevity of your tent.
- What size tent do I need based on team size?
-
Use this chart as a starting point to determine how large of a canopy tent you need for your teams.
