Custom volleyball uniforms are performance equipment, not just matching tops. The right kit moves freely through overhead swings, survives floor contact, keeps numbers readable for scorers and referees, and gives your libero the contrast most competitions expect. This guide covers jerseys versus singlets, shorts that actually suit jumping sports, sponsor-friendly design, sizing and the ordering process that keeps a whole club matching.
VS Wear makes custom volleyball jerseys, singlets, shorts and full sets for Australian clubs, schools and social teams. Pricing is factory-direct, which lands 30 to 40% below what most clubs pay elsewhere, design help costs nothing, and production takes 3 to 4 weeks from the day you approve your artwork.
Clubs get the best results by locking in the match-day essentials before touching training gear or merchandise. Get these five right and everything else follows.
The tidiest way to buy the core kit is as a bundle. Custom volleyball sets pair the top and shorts in one order, which guarantees full colour consistency between garments because everything prints from the same artwork run.

A volleyball top has one job above all others: disappear during play. No twisting through swings, no cling in long rallies, no restriction across the shoulders.
Sleeved custom volleyball jerseys are the match-day standard for most indoor leagues. A raglan sleeve cut keeps the shoulder seam away from the swing path, necklines come in modern V-neck or traditional round neck, and the sleeve gives sponsors a third readable placement zone alongside chest and upper back.
Sleeveless custom volleyball singlets shine in hot venues, summer competitions and heavy training blocks. Traditional wide-shoulder cuts read classic; racerback T-back styles maximise airflow and shoulder freedom and are especially popular in women's leagues and beach volleyball. Breathable fabric choices matter for the outdoor game, where sets are played in full sun.
Plenty of clubs run both: jerseys as the official match top, singlets for training and the summer social comp. Because both print from the same master design, the club still looks like one club. Unsure which suits your competition? Call 1800 845 056 and describe where you play; we will give you a straight recommendation.
Shorts are where volleyball kits most often disappoint, because generic sports shorts are not built for repeated jumps, deep defensive posture and floor contact.
VS Wear makes custom volleyball shorts in two distinct builds. Ladies' compression shorts use a poly-spandex blend with a Lycra feel for a supportive, skin-tight fit, with inseam options of 2.5, 3 and 4 inches so each squad can choose its comfort point. The opacity is squat-proof, tested at full fabric stretch under stadium lighting, and the wide, flat waistband is designed not to dig in or roll down mid-match.
Men's and unisex woven shorts take a relaxed mid-thigh fit in lightweight micro-woven polyester, with side vents that let the leg extend laterally without the fabric pulling tight. Both builds carry reinforced stitching at the crotch and side seams, the two points jumping sports stress hardest.
Sublimated side panels can mirror the jersey design so the kit reads as one outfit rather than a top and an afterthought. Get shorts priced with your tops and see the difference a matched set makes.
Volleyball is overhead arm action, explosive jumps and floor contact, repeated for hours. The uniform has to be engineered for all three.
Raglan cuts and four-way mechanical stretch keep the top moving with the arm through serves, swings and blocks. Tight armholes that rub on repeat swings are the first thing players notice and the last thing they forgive.
Indoor venues get hot and humid on multi-game nights. CoolDry micromesh fabric wicks moisture away from the skin instead of letting the top go heavy and clingy late in a rally.
Dives and floor saves put abrasion through fabric and seams. Double-stitched, reinforced seams are built to survive sliding on hardwood, week after week, wash after wash.
Dye sublimation infuses the design into the fibre itself, so floor contact cannot crack or flake it the way it destroys transfers, and the printed fabric stays exactly as breathable as unprinted fabric.
Every element above is standard in the VS Wear volleyball range, not an upgrade tier.
Most volleyball uniform dramas are not about style. They are about numbers a scorer cannot read, a libero who does not contrast, or two teams arriving in navy.
Keep high contrast between number and base colour, and keep a clean panel behind the number rather than running patterns through it. Use the same number font and placement across every grade, which also makes reorders and grade transfers painless. Front and back numbers with a captain's bar are included in the sublimated print at no extra cost.
Where your competition uses a libero, the top must contrast clearly with the team kit. The clean solution is a same-design, different-base-colour version of your jersey, produced in the same order batch so it arrives with the kit rather than months later. Dark team kit means light libero top, and the reverse.
Clubs that play tournaments and mixed venues save themselves grief with one light kit and one dark kit sharing identical design language. Default to one, switch early when a clash looms, and travel with a spare jersey and a spare contrasting libero top in common sizes. Reversible garments are another route to the same insurance, carrying both colourways in a single piece.

A volleyball kit is your club's most photographed asset. It appears in team photos, tournament livestreams, sponsor announcements and every social post the club makes.
Sublimation gives volleyball designs unlimited colours and gradients with zero added weight, and the design service that shapes it is free with every VS Wear order: once you order, our in-house team keeps revising your mock-ups, without limit, until you approve the artwork. There are no setup fees for custom artwork.
| Tier | Placement | Why it works |
|---|---|---|
| Major sponsor | Front chest | Maximum visibility in photos and streams |
| Gold | Upper back | Strong sideline and spectator visibility |
| Silver | Sleeves | Clean placement for local businesses |
| Support | Shorts panel | Extra fundraising tier without clutter |
Every sponsor logo on the kit is included in the one sublimated price, so the hierarchy is a design decision, not a cost decision. Keep spacing generous and the number zone clean, and resist the logo-collage look that devalues every sponsor at once.
Have the logos ready to go? Start your quote and attach them; the first mock-up moves much faster.
The strongest volleyball clubs design once for the whole organisation: juniors, seniors, men's, women's, mixed, coaches and supporters.
Standardise three things and hold them steady: the club master design, the numbering rules, and the sponsor hierarchy. Leave flexible the things players genuinely care about: jersey or singlet cut, shorts length, and training gear versus match kit. That balance keeps identity tight without volunteering anyone into arguments about sleeve preferences.
Coaches polos make the bench look organised. Warm-up tees keep match jerseys out of training rotation, so numbers stay sharp for photos. Hoodies and tracksuits cover winter travel and walk-ins, and supporter tees, caps and beanies turn parents into a wall of club colour while quietly raising funds. Our custom jackets and hoodies guide covers the outerwear side in depth.
Schools run the same structure across sports, and our custom team uniforms guide shows how multi-sport programs keep one identity across codes. Want staff and supporter mock-ups alongside the playing kit? Ask for the full club range in one quote.
One coordinator, one spreadsheet, one deadline. That sentence has saved more volleyball clubs than any fabric technology ever will.
The VS Wear volleyball range starts at kids size 4 and runs right up to adult 5XL, with unisex, men's and ladies cuts available, so a club can size a 10-and-under squad and an open men's side off the same chart set. Detailed size charts accompany every quote.
Order early in the season and plan for growth, and prioritise arm opening comfort over a fashionably tight fit. Keeping a small buffer of common sizes covers mid-season arrivals without a rush order.
Confirm early whether specific squads want ladies cuts or compression shorts, and double-check shorts sizing rather than assuming it mirrors the tops. Waist stability matters more in volleyball than in almost any other indoor sport.
If the spreadsheet throws up something odd, send it to hello@vswear.com.au before you approve; a two-minute check beats a remake conversation.
Uniform delays are almost never production delays. They are late sponsor logos, slow sign-offs and sizing rounds that drifted. Plan like a club and the process is easy.
Lock sponsor logos early; late sponsor swaps cause more uniform delays than anything else in club sport. And if the finished garments ever fail to match the artwork you approved, the 100% remake guarantee applies.
A little season craft keeps a volleyball kit looking new through the washing machine marathon of a full fixture.

Straight answers to the questions coordinators send us most often.
Jerseys are the usual match-day choice for indoor volleyball because the sleeved cut suits most venues and gives sponsors more placement room. Singlets suit hot venues, summer competitions and training, with racerback styles popular in women's leagues and beach volleyball. Many clubs order jerseys for matches and singlets for training off the same design.
Most competitions that use a libero require the libero to be clearly identifiable in a contrasting top. VS Wear produces a contrasting libero version of your jersey in the same order batch, keeping the design language identical while switching the base colour, so it arrives together with the team kit.
Volleyball orders start at just 10 units per design, lower than the standard 20 unit minimum, which comfortably covers a single team with spares. Jerseys, singlets, shorts and sets can be combined within one order, and junior and senior sizes mix freely.
Production at VS Wear takes 3 to 4 weeks from design approval. The variable is everything before approval: sponsor logos, committee sign-off and sizing collection. Clubs that start 8 to 10 weeks before they need the kit never feel rushed.
No. Sublimation prints the entire design in one pass, so names, front and back numbers, a captain's bar and unlimited sponsor logos are all included in the standard price at VS Wear. There are no setup or artwork fees either.
Kids size 4 through to adult 5XL, in unisex, men's and ladies cuts. Ladies compression shorts come in 2.5, 3 and 4 inch inseams, and men's woven shorts take a relaxed mid-thigh fit. Every quote includes detailed size charts.
Reserve a clean, high-contrast panel for the numbers and keep gradients and patterns away from it. Light numbers on dark bases or the reverse photograph best and satisfy referees and scorers. Our designers set this zone up in the first mock-up so the rest of the design works around it.
Yes, and tournament-active clubs should. Keep the same design in two base colours so both kits read as the same club, nominate a default, and switch early when a clash is likely. Both colourways can be produced in the same production run.
Lock a club master design and leave it alone. Your approved artwork and production files stay on record at VS Wear, so next season's top-ups print identically, and consistent number fonts and sponsor placements mean new garments slot straight into existing squads.
Yes. Schools order volleyball kits through the same process as clubs, often combining interschool team kits with sports-day singlets and PE gear. Brisbane Boys College's volleyball sets pictured in this guide are one example of a school program kit.
Every order is covered by the VS Wear remake guarantee: garments that do not match your approved artwork or production files are remade in full. That is why the approval step, and confirming sponsor spelling before it, matters so much.
