Cleaning your little one’s sports uniform is a problem faced by mothers the world over. Whether you are a soccer mom, rugby mum or athletics mother, at one point or another you will find yourself faced with grass stains that seem impossible to tackle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fear not though, this guide will help you regain the joy you first felt watching your children play sport and no longer shudder every time they come home with a dirty kit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Act Straight Away<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    You could be forgiven for wanting to bury your head in the sand when your child first comes home with a fresh bag of wet, muddy and smelly clothes . Especially if it isn’t laundry day<\/a>. It is important to keep in mind that by doing this you will be making the whole process much harder for yourself in the long run. If you take one thing away from this guide today let it be this. Tackle that kit as soon as it comes through the door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Know Your Fabric<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Standard football kits are made predominantly from a polyester-nylon mesh. School rugby kits are often made from polyester with a lycra blend. Both sets of materials are made for their durability and thankfully are both easier to clean than cotton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Pre Soak<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Once you’ve established the fabric you want to get that kit soaking as quickly as possible. Try to run the tap and get as much mud off as possible. Some parents have even been known to hang the kit on the washing line and rinse with a hose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Once you have got as much mud off as possible, fill a bucket with warm water, mix with one cap of laundry detergent and a cup of baking soda. We would advise leaving the kit to sit for at least an hour or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Pre Wash<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Check to see if your washing machine has a pre-wash option. If so, take advantage of it! Using your pre-wash setting allows the main wash to be as clean as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We advise using half a cup of standard washing powder and a half a cup of oxidizing stain remover in the pre-wash. Do the same when it comes to the main wash but use a full cup of stain remover this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"laundry<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Avoid Chlorine Bleach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Despite how tempting it may seem to use chlorine bleach, don’t! Polyester and chlorine do not see eye to eye. If you feel you have to use bleach try to find an all-fabric bleach. You don’t want to be forking out more money for a new kit because you ruined the last one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Removing Grass Stains<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The absolute best way to get rid of grass is to use non-chlorine bleach. But as mentioned above make sure this bleach is not chlorine bleach as it won’t end well for anyone involved. Make sure you soak the kit in this for a solid hour before using the heavy-duty detergent to finish the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Removing Mud<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Mud can be a tricky one. This is because the key to removing it is by letting it completely dry. If your children used their kit at the start of the school day then this shouldn’t be a problem for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If this is not the case and the mud is still wet, do not attempt to wipe it away as it will only rub deeper into the fabric. A good hack is using a toothbrush or plastic cutlery to gently scrape the mud from the kit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Cleaning Sweat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    We seem to never stop mentioning the benefits of baking soda and white vinegar<\/a> on this blog. Cleaning sweat stains or smells is where this unlikely couple truly show they are a match made in heaven. Simply rub some on the affected area before placing your kit in the wash. The outcome will be a fresh smelling sports kit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Drying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Always air dry sports kits to make sure no shrinkage occurs. If you have to use a tumble dryer we advise setting it to low heat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Consult The Professionals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    When in doubt, go to the professionals. Laundryheap <\/a>will give you a fast and professional service on any dirty sports kits you can’t bare to wash again. We pick up and deliver in 24 hours and charge no delivery fees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
