Cedar Hill, TX (PRWEB) January 28, 2014 -- PepWear announces the signing of a multi-year contract naming the company the “Official Spirit Wear provider for USA Football”TM, the sport’s national governing body. Under the agreement, PepWear will be the preferred provider of screenprinted and embroidered T-Shirts, shorts, bags and embroidered polos, caps and hats for the youth football leagues and teams associated with USA Football.
In 2013, USA Football programs such as Heads Up FootballSM, FUNdamentals NFL FLAG powered by USA Football, and USA Football’s national team program involved youth and high school coaches and players spanning all 50 states and Washington, D.C.

PepWear has long standing relationships with many premier organizations that are dedicated to youth achievement and involvement including Music For All, Winter Guard International, the University Interscholastic League and many others. “We enjoy supporting organizations that are in the business of providing positive experiences and promoting youth achievement, and USA Football is a perfect example of a group with exactly that set of values,” said PepWear President, Craig Johnson. “We are proud to take part in raising awareness and recognition of their programs as well as providing great spirit wear products to their participants.”
USA Football’s International Bowl, where the USA’s top high school football players take on the best high school-age players from Canada, will take place at the University of Texas at Arlington on February 7-8, 2014. Fans and families will have the opportunity to purchase game memorabilia from PepWear’s USA Football merchandise booth. In addition, PepWear is providing apparel for use by the event’s coaches and staff. This will be the first opportunity for PepWear to showcase their abilities and introduce themselves to the USA Football community.
“We are pleased to have PepWear serve as our official spirit wear provider,” said USA Football Executive Director Scott Hallenbeck. “Youth and high school athletes who enjoy the fun and benefits of playing football through many of our programs will perform at their best in PepWear apparel. Having a partner like PepWear that shares our commitment to ensure positive experiences for young athletes and their families is an ideal fit.”
