UNSPSC 57040200: Recreational kits

This class includes different types of recreation kits for individual and team sports.

UNSPSC 57040200 Recreational kits is a Class code under which state and local governments procure athletic equipment, apparel, uniforms, supplies, and related goods to support competitive sports, physical education, and recreational programming across school districts, colleges, and municipal recreation facilities. Recent solicitations show school districts dominating activity, with purchases spanning weight room equipment, multi-sport athletic uniforms and branded team wear, sport-specific equipment catalogs (football, basketball, baseball, softball, volleyball, soccer, tennis, golf, track and field, cross country, wrestling), fitness equipment maintenance, gymnasium floor services, and challenge course construction and certification. The code also captures institutional fitness procurement by departments of corrections and state health agencies acquiring commercial-grade exercise equipment for medical facilities and recreational centers.

Issuing bodies are heavily concentrated among independent school districts in Texas (Donna, Harlingen, Pasadena, Katy, Northside, Birdville) and Michigan (Paw Paw, Utica, Blissfield), with activity also from community colleges (Mt. San Antonio College), state universities (Texas State Athletics, University of Wisconsin Stevens Point), municipalities (City of Dallas, City of New Haven, Sarasota County, Santa Clara County), state departments (Kentucky Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services), county recreation (Henry County), and transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit). Representative solicitations include Northside Independent School District's IFB 2026-073 for multi-sport athletic uniforms and branded team wear (May 14, 2026 deadline), Mt. San Antonio College's RFP for athletic apparel, uniforms, and equipment for 24 collegiate sports (May 18, 2026 deadline with estimated annual value of $100,000 to $250,000), Donna Independent School District's suite of catalog bid RFPs for sport-specific equipment across 12 categories (April 8, 2026 deadline), and Paw Paw Public Schools' sealed bid for high school weight room equipment (July 28, 2026 deadline). Geographic concentration is strongest in Texas (particularly South Texas and the Dallas-Fort Worth region) and Michigan, with scattered activity in Florida, Connecticut, California, Kentucky, New Hampshire, Colorado, and Wisconsin.
