Spotlight: SidelineSwap

Meet SidelineSwap… sports recommerce marketplace and the “#SeeingGreen Solutionist of the Day” for September 18.

SidelineSwap is an online marketplace that connects athletes looking to buy or sell new and used sports equipment. Founded in 2015, the company has grown into one of the largest platforms for secondhand sports gear, offering equipment for a wide range of sports, including hockey, lacrosse, baseball, and golf. Since launching the marketplace in 2015, more than 1.5M athletes have joined SidelineSwap and listed more than $1B worth of gear for sale. With backing from investors including eBay Ventures, the company’s partners include Rawlings Sporting Goods, DICK'S Sporting Goods, MonkeySports, Inc. and more.

SidelineSwap is committed to promoting a circular economy in sports equipment. By facilitating the buying and selling of secondhand gear, the platform helps reduce waste and extend the life of products that might otherwise end up in landfills. This model not only saves consumers money but also reduces the environmental impact associated with the production of new sports equipment. The company promotes the idea of “reuse and recycle” in the sports community, encouraging athletes to rethink how they source their gear while making sustainability a core part of their business.
