Soft enamel and photo screen options, free artwork, and rush production when the tournament date is close. What is the Colorado Sparkler?The Colorado Sparkler is Triple Crown Sports' flagship 4th of July fastpitch event, held around the Denver metro area, Northern Colorado, and Colorado Springs. It runs with related Fireworks and Sparkler Juniors divisions and draws over a thousand 10U-18U teams from across the country each year. Families treat it as a vacation-week tournament: games, showcases, and a lot of Colorado Sparkler pin trading between fields. Colorado Sparkler Pin TradingSparkler tournament trading pins get exchanged in dugouts, parking lots, and hotel lobbies all week. Teams that bring a distinctive pin - glitter, a 4th of July theme, a Colorado landmark, or a limited larger pin - get more trades. Plan one pin per player per team you expect to meet, plus extras for family and coaches. Last year's team count plus about 10% is a solid estimate if the final list is not out yet.

Most teams order soft enamel. Photo screen is used for full-color or faster-turn designs. When should we order Colorado Sparkler trading pins?Start artwork as soon as the team is committed to Sparkler week. Soft enamel needs more lead time. Photo screen is the better rush path if you are inside 30 days of the first game. Rush orders are welcome, but earlier is cheaper and safer. Do you make Triple Crown Sparkler pins every year?Yes. Metro Pins has been making custom Sparkler team pins for Colorado Sparkler softball teams for more than 20 years. How many Sparkler tournament trading pins do we need?Plan one pin per player per team you expect to meet, then add extras for family and coaches. Sparkler and Fireworks fields are large and spread across multiple complexes. Use last year's division size plus about 10% if the current list is not posted. What size should our Colorado Sparkler pins be?Most teams order 1.75" or 2.00" for the main pin. Order at least 1.50". A limited 3" piece is optional when you want a scarcer trade during the 4th of July week. Do the pins need a fireworks or Colorado theme?No. Team colors and a readable logo trade first. A small mountain, sparkler, or 4th of July detail can help the pin stand out, but it is optional. Can we add glitter, danglers, or sliders?Yes. Glitter, sliders, danglers, and glow are common when a team wants more trades at a packed Sparkler week. Is there a minimum order?There is no strict minimum. A sample is available on most styles. Volume pricing applies at higher quantities. Can we get pins in time if we order in June?Often yes. Photo screen is usually the faster process. Include the first-game date and the ship-to address, whether that is home, a Denver-area hotel, or a Colorado Springs or Northern Colorado complex. How do we start an order?Submit your logo, Sparkler week, quantity, and needed date through our softball design request. We will send artwork and pricing for approval. |
