premium collegiate licensed apparel
Campus Course is a premium collegiate licensed golf apparel brand based in Tampa, Florida. Founded in 2024 by Michael Melendez — a former Division I Athletic Director — Campus Course designs performance polos and hats for golfers and fans of Florida's leading universities.
The brand is officially licensed through the Collegiate Licensing Company (CLC) and Affinity Licensing for Florida State University, University of Florida, University of Central Florida, University of South Florida, and University of Tampa. A portion of every purchase supports student-athlete scholarships through university licensing royalties.
Campus Course's product line includes custom performance polos with choosable logo placement (chest, sleeve, or back), signature ready-to-ship polos in school-specific colorways, and premium hats. All polos are crafted from moisture-wicking, four-way stretch fabric with SPF 50+ protection and an athletic fit.
What sets Campus Course apart from traditional collegiate merchandise is its focus on golf-ready quality. The brand intentionally removes its own branding from the outside of each garment so the school identity comes first — comparable in quality to Peter Millar and Holderness & Bourne, but with officially licensed collegiate logos.
Campus Course products are available at campuscourse.com, through select pro shops, and specialty retailers across Florida.
