SquadLocker®, a leading provider of custom team apparel solutions, is thrilled to announce a new partnership with RYTE Sport™, expanding their offerings to include RYTE Sport's high-quality sublimated swimwear for water polo, swimming, and diving.
Organizations and teams using the online platform now have access to RYTE Sport sublimated swimwear in tandem with the comprehensive SquadLocker suite of products and services. This includes 24/7 digital stores, ordering items without minimums, and direct-to-athlete shipping. Fletcher Jones, SquadLocker CEO, said, “We’re thrilled to partner with RYTE Sport to serve our many water sports customers better. Until recently, we could only offer spirit wear and gear, but not the actual swimsuits. Now, our customers can fully leverage our tech-enabled digital stores for all swimwear orders, plus access our roster tools, vouchers, and more.”
Alex Young, CEO of RYTE Sport remarked on the partnership, “We built RYTE Sport to provide a customer-centric swimwear solution for aquatics teams and clubs. Since inception, we’ve focused on delivering best-in-class competitive swimwear quickly and made locally. When we first discussed the opportunity with Gary (Gary Goldberg, SquadLocker Founder and President) and the SquadLocker team, it was evident we shared the same values. It is very hard to find companies that put the emphasis on customer experience first. Our partnership with SquadLocker provides the ultimate solution for aquatics athletes to continue to compete in RYTE swimwear and top-of-the-line custom apparel.”
This strategic partnership marks a significant milestone as SquadLocker becomes the first complete custom apparel solution to offer a sublimated swimwear line with on-demand fulfillment. Swimwear is shipped directly to athletes, meeting the needs of organizations with time-sensitive requirements and accommodating late registrants or lost swimwear uniforms effortlessly. SquadLocker continues to lead the market with innovative and versatile options for athletes.
Young finished, “I look forward to supporting the greater swimming and water polo market nationwide with a solution that cannot be matched by other platforms or aquatics brands.”
The watersports community is vibrant and growing. According to USA Swimming, there are over 400,000 registered swimming athletes. USA Water Polo boasts 50,000 water polo athletes, and USA Diving has more than 200 clubs nationwide. This partnership aims to support these athletes by offering high-performance swimwear that enhances their competitive edge.

Goldberg continued, “The technical textile requirements for swimming are complex, between the pH of the pool, to the stretch and recovery needed for the performing athlete; RYTE has done an impressive job covering all the bases with both breadth of products and their durability and performance. I am excited to also be able to offer these products through our distributors as well.“
