Tap a teammate in — you're connected.
Your game. Your crew. Your feed.
The sleeve gets you in. The app is where you stay. ZGuards Max is where athletes and fans share the same space — post highlights, talk trash with your team, follow the pros, and earn real rewards just for playing the sports you already love.

Build your crew

Tap a teammate's sleeve and you're connected. Create your squad, build a team page, and see everyone's highlights in one feed. Every game, every practice, every pick-up run.

Post your highlights

Caught a one-handed grab at practice? Film it, tag it, post it. The best clips get featured on the weekly leaderboard, and the community picks the winners.

Team chat

Group chat for your crew. Talk strategy before the game, hype each other up after. No switching apps — it's all inside ZGuards Max, tied to the people you actually play with.

Weekly challenges

New challenge every week — best catch, nastiest crossover, longest throw. Submit your clip, the community votes, and winners take home gold coins redeemable for real gear.

Follow the pros

Athletes with ZGuards sleeves post exclusive content — behind-the-scenes training, game-day routines, shoutouts to top fans. Tap your sleeve to unlock their feed. It's not Instagram. It's not TikTok. It's a direct line between you and the athletes you look up to, built around the gear you both wear.
