The Coalition to Advance the Protection of Sports logos (CAPS) is a coalition formed in 1992 by Collegiate Licensing Company, LLC (CLC), Major League Baseball, NBA Properties, Inc., NFL Properties LLC, and NHL Enterprises, L.P. CAPS aims to centralize and coordinate trademark protection and enforcement matters, ensuring that fans purchase only the highest quality, authentic fan gear.
CAPS members work together to combat counterfeiting, providing fans with guidelines on how to spot counterfeit merchandise, such as the absence of authentic holograms, licensed hang-tags, or sewn-in labels. Additionally, CAPS offers assistance to law enforcement agencies and encourages individuals to report counterfeit goods to help protect the integrity of sports logos.
