The difference between Box Out and Canva? Box Out templates are sports-specific, so you don’t have to sift through mountains of irrelevant graphics to find what you need.
And, if we’re being honest, Canva’s sports graphics are bush league compared to Box Out’s.
What does Box Out have that every other program is missing?
In a nutshell, sports-specific graphics created by professional designers from the NBA and NCAA Division 1 programs.

The math isn’t complicated. Canva has thousands of sports templates and hundreds of thousands of graphics overall.
That’s good, right?
Not so fast!
Did you know that if you search Canva’s templates for a “sports” graphic, you come up 39,310+ templates? And frankly, a lot of them have nothing to do with actual sports.
Let’s say it takes you 1 second to view each template. It’ll still take you almost 11 hours to view each one. And that’s without a single bathroom break.
Instead of feeling like you’ve gotta hit the ball out of knee-high rough every time you need a template, head on over to Box Out where you have a carefully created and curated selection of industry-appropriate graphics that all knock it out of the park.
Sign up for free for full access to the Box Out template library, and you’ll be sitting in the catbird seat. No more cringe graphics. No more spending hours trying to get it right. No more paying expensive designers to get you back onto the fairway.
You’re invited to access a full-feature version of Box Out at no cost. When you’re ready to publish your shiny new graphic, pick your plan, and you can schedule or post your content at your leisure.
