As a former basketball player and coach, I experienced a problem that has existed in basketball practices for decades. We always had three teams competing at practice, but only two colors available with traditional reversible practice jerseys. That meant the third team had two choices: take off their jerseys and play “skins” or grab a second practice jersey just to create a third team color. I kept asking myself one simple question: Why do we need two jerseys when one should be able to do the job? That question inspired me to create 3 VERSEIT — the three-sided reversible basketball practice jersey. One jersey. Three colors. No more skins. No more second practice jersey. Our innovative design allows players to simply WEAR IT, REVERSE IT, and TURN IT to create three different team colors using just one jersey. But 3 VERSEIT is about more than adding a third color. It’s about making basketball practices more efficient, organized, and affordable. By eliminating the need for extra practice jerseys, teams can reduce equipment costs, laundry, and the hassle of managing multiple sets of jerseys. As a former player and coach, I wanted to create something that makes life easier for coaches, players, and athletic programs at every level. Sometimes the simplest ideas can change the way we do things.
WE CAN DO IT REVOLUTIONIZE PRACTICE!
1. Ends body shaming by eliminating "skins" or "shirtless"
2. No need for a "2nd" practice jersey set "eliminates the pinnie"
3. Less laundry and storage for coaches and parents
4. Can still go back to two teams. Outside main color & inside 2 colors
"I agree!
This is a real problem for us every day at practice. It makes me nuts when we have 3 teams. We always go Red, white, and shirts. Every girl usually has a red or white shirt. We have old black uniforms, but they are tucked away, and we don’t grab them for one or two drills.
I mean it's an outstanding idea!!"
"No I agree when I was at Indiana State we always had 3 sets of jerseys out at practice"
" I will definitely say something to him because I think there is value in these."
"Dang! That’s ingenious!
No more pinnies. I think it will work. Girls yes. Boys too. Boys don’t like to go skins anymore."
