Re: sports merchandising license

I'm not positive what you mean by a "license for Sports Merchandising". If you mean a trademark license to sell items with a particular team's emblem, then you need to go to whoever handles the licensing for that team. Some professional sports have centralized licensing for all teams; in other sports it is on a team-by-team basis.

This system won't let me list the phone numbers of NFL Licensing and MLB licensing but you can get the information online at:

Good luck.
