Big, little, large or small for Your Logo Here

It doesn't matter about the size or number for Your Logo Here — just ask and we can keep everyone feeling part of your banding team...

Your Logo Here
  Your Logo Here can even make polo shirts in a special Evelyn size too!

The team at Your Logo Here is ensuring that no member, however big or small will feel left out when it comes to being a member of the band they love.

For instance, the picture below is of 6 year old Evelyn, Stretford Band's mascot and trombone fanatic.

Mad keen

YLH's Lloyd Shipp told 4BR: "Evelyn is mad keen on learning to play the trombone, so we decided to get her a band polo shirt, exactly the same as the older members wear, just Evelyn sized!"

Evelyn is currently working hard each day practicing to play Christmas Carol parts so that she can join the other members of Stretford (including her proud mum) when they do a caroling gig at her school

Few more inches

Stretford Band is currently on the lookout for a new MD, and although Evelyn would love to do that too, she admits that she may just have to grow a few inches yet!"
