|  | STEP THREE: DETERMINE SIZES NEEDED
Measure each of the girls on your team, using the guidelines below. Compare each girl's measurements to the measurements the table provided. This will tell you what size to order for that girl. Email a list of the sizes you need, along with your choice of color and lettering style, to us, for processing of your order.
-
2 piece uniforms are sized for a normal fit.
-
Jumpers are sized for a snug fit (order next size up if you want a normal fit).
-
CheerKids uniforms are designed for girls who have not yet started to mature (there are no darts in the larger sizes).
Have the same person measure all girls. (Do not ask mothers to turn in their daughter's measurements.)
-
Use the same method to measure all girls.
-
Have the girls wear undergarments similar to those they will be wearing under the uniform.
-
If a shirt or tights are to be worn under the uniform, be sure to allow for that.
-
Measure all girls at the same time if possible.
-
Use a fabric tape measure if possible.
-
Make sure the tape measure is held snugly, and firmly (not tightly) against the body.
-
When measuring circumference measurements, make sure the tape measure is parallel with the floor.
-
Use the following to estimate sizing:
-
If a girl is out of proportion with standard measurements, order a size large enough to be altered to fit.
-
If chest measurement is close, but waist and/or hips are smaller, size by the chest and alter the waist.
-
If chest measurement is close, but waist and/or hips are larger, size by the hips and alter the chest and/or waist.
