Green Sports Alliance Releases Sustainable Apparel Playbook for Teams

Portland – October 16, 2026 -- The Green Sports Alliance has released its Sustainable Apparel Playbook, a guide that shows sports organizations how to cut environmental impact across the full apparel lifecycle while supporting revenue growth, cultural influence and customer satisfaction.

Case studies cover procurement, end-of-life and fan marketing

The playbook draws on professional and collegiate sports examples across product procurement, end-of-life solutions, community engagement and impact marketing. The Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix worked with its local school district on a sustainable fashion contest that reimagined outdated race suits as fashion pieces. Oakland Roots' Upcycled Fashion Project teamed with local students to create pieces from outdated jerseys and other upcycled items.
