About Trading Pins
The trading of custom Trading pins started gaining popularity about
10 years ago in Little League Baseball tournaments. Teams would
bring baseball trading pins to each tournament to trade with players
from other teams that they were competing against.
Today custom trading pins are popular among most team sports such
as soccer, swimming, softball, hockey, football, basketball, tennis,
golf and rope jumping and even events like Destination Imagination.
Most tournaments have a pin trading ceremony where the teams get
together to trade pins with each other. This event is the highlight
of the tournament for the kids.
