🏀 Why Sports Teams Love Coffee Fundraisers

From uniforms and travel costs to tournament fees and equipment, sports teams always have something to pay for—and fundraising is part of the game. But let’s be honest: most teams are tired of the same old candy bars and raffle tickets.

That’s why more and more sports teams are switching to something better: coffee fundraisers.

Here’s why coaches, players, and parents alike are loving the switch—and why it might be your team’s smartest move this season.

☕ 1.  Everyone Drinks Coffee

Let’s start with the obvious: coffee is universal. Parents drink it, teachers drink it, your neighbor drinks it. Unlike niche products, coffee is something supporters already buy—often weekly.

Instead of asking people to buy something extra, you’re offering them something they already use—with a portion going straight to your team.

💰 2. High Profit, Low Effort

With Grade A Grounds, your team keeps up to 40% of every sale. That adds up fast—without the hassle of perishable items or complicated logistics.

We handle the roasting, packing, and shipping. You just promote your paper forms and online store. Simple as that. Learn more about how our fundraisers work. 

🧍 3. Great for Players of All Ages

Whether you’re coaching a youth soccer team or a high school basketball squad, coffee fundraisers are easy to explain and easy to sell.

Younger players use printed forms with parents and family. Older players can share a custom link via text or social media. It meets people where they are.

🎯 4. Your Team Logo on Every Bag

We’ll print your team logo right on the coffee bag—so every supporter gets a product they’re proud to hold and share. It’s a small detail that makes a big impression and strengthens team spirit.

📦 5. No Inventory to Manage

Gone are the days of organizing a pickup table full of frozen cookie dough. Coffee is shipped directly to buyers or delivered in a simple group order—no ice packs required.

This makes it ideal for teams with busy schedules or limited storage space.

🔁 6. Year-Round Support with Subscriptions

Here’s the game-changer: after someone buys during your fundraiser, they can subscribe to their favorite blend and keep supporting your team every month.

That means:

• Ongoing income for your team
• No extra selling

• Happy supporters who never run out of coffee

Imagine raising money after the fundraiser ends—automatically.

📣 7. Builds Team Spirit (and Community Pride)

There’s something special about seeing your team’s name and logo on a coffee bag. It creates a sense of pride, momentum, and community connection.

Coaches have even used coffee fundraisers to:

• Reward top sellers

• Sponsor tournaments

• Pay for scholarships or extra team gear

Final Thoughts

If your team needs a smarter, fresher, and more effective way to raise money, coffee might be your MVP.

It’s high-quality, high-impact, and high-energy—just like your team.
