Bear Grips Pro ShopsCustom Youth Basketball Team Jerseys and Team Shirts
- Performance moisture-wicking tees with player numbers serve most youth basketball jersey needs.
- No minimums -- each player's parent orders direct, no coordinator required.
- Youth sizing covers ages 4-14 across tees, shorts, hoodies, and hats.
- Done-For-You VIP handles per-player numbered designs as part of monthly setup.
Why Performance Tees Work as Youth Basketball Jerseys
Most youth basketball programs do not need cut-and-sew reversible jerseys. They need shirts that identify the player, survive a season of practice and games, and can be ordered in any size without a 36-piece minimum.
A Sport-Tek Youth Moisture-Wicking Performance Tee with the team logo on the front and player number on the back hits all three needs. It breathes during play, prints any design, and costs $23.88 VIP base with free shipping.
Parents who see these on game day frequently comment that they look better than the generic reversibles from sporting goods stores.
Youth Basketball Apparel Sizing Guide
Sizing by approximate age for youth basketball shirts:
- Youth XS: ages 4-6, 33-35 inch chest
- Youth S: ages 6-8, 35-38 inch chest
- Youth M: ages 8-10, 38-40 inch chest
- Youth L: ages 10-12, 40-42 inch chest
- Youth XL: ages 12-14, 42-45 inch chest
For players aged 13-14 who have hit their growth spurt, adult small often fits better. Since parents order their own size, incorrect guesses are the parent's to resolve -- add a size chart link in your shop description.
Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.How Per-Player Numbered Designs Work
For youth programs that want each player to have their own number on the shirt, the Done-For-You VIP service handles individual design files per player as part of the monthly setup.
The layout: team logo on the front chest, player number (large, 4-6 inches) centered on the back, player name above the number. This mirrors traditional jersey structure on a performance tee body.
Standard setup: coach provides a roster list with player names and numbers. Done-For-You applies each number as a separate shop product variant.
Building a Full Youth Basketball Kit in Your Shop
Beyond the jersey-equivalent tee, a complete youth basketball kit includes:
- Youth mesh shorts -- $26.88 VIP base, matching team colors
- Gildan Youth Hoodie -- $36.88 VIP base, warmup before games
- Youth Classic Baseball Hat (embroidered) -- $25.86 VIP base, program hat
Organize these into a 'Youth Player Kit' collection in your shop. Families who buy the set spend 3-4x more per order and your program earns proportionally higher profit.
