Custom roller hockey apparel for kids and youth leagues is available through Bear Grips Pro Shops with no minimum order. Youth performance tees, athletic shorts, and hoodies ship from US print facilities in your team colors with your team logo. Youth sizing covers ages 6 through 14 depending on the product. Here is the best youth roller hockey apparel setup for small leagues, travel teams, and house programs that need coordinated team gear without a bulk purchase minimum.
Youth roller hockey programs need gear that moves well, washes easily, and holds a printed logo through a full season of rink sessions. The products that meet those requirements at youth sizing:
Youth roller hockey apparel sizing follows standard athletic youth sizing. The practical guide for parents ordering for their kids:
When a league coordinator is ordering for a full youth roster without individual measurements, the most common size distribution for a 15-player youth roller hockey team is: 1 XS, 3 S, 5 M, 4 L, 2 XL. That covers most youth programs without significant overage.
Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.Youth roller hockey leagues face a coordination challenge that adult rec leagues do not: parents are doing the purchasing, not the players. The most effective setup for a youth program is the parent-direct ordering model:
The key advantage of this model for youth leagues: parents are used to buying their kids' gear online. A store link sent to 20 parents at the start of the season generates orders from 12-15 of them within the first week with no follow-up required. The families who are most engaged in the program buy first and often buy the complete kit (tee, shorts, hoodie).
Youth leagues that include gear in the registration fee (one kit per registered player as part of enrollment) use the bulk-order model instead: the league coordinator collects sizes at registration and places one order for all enrolled players. No-minimum ordering means 8 registered players get 8 jerseys without paying for a 24-piece minimum.
Youth programs and adult programs have different priorities when it comes to custom roller hockey apparel, and understanding the difference helps a league coordinator make smarter choices about what to stock and how to price it.
Youth priorities: Durability over aesthetics, easy washing, proper youth sizing, and parental buy-in. Parents making purchasing decisions for their kids respond to clarity (this is the official team shirt) and convenience (here is the link, just order the right size). Price sensitivity is higher because parents are already spending on equipment, rink fees, and registration.
Adult priorities: Aesthetics matter more, performance fabric is expected, and team identity investment runs deeper. Adult recreational players often want the hoodie and the tee because they wear the team gear socially, not just at the rink. Price sensitivity is lower per item because adults are spending their own money.
The practical implication: a youth league should lead with the performance tee and athletic shorts at accessible price points, and offer the hoodie as an optional premium. An adult rec league can lead with the hoodie and tee together as the standard package.

Youth roller hockey gear searches often include equipment terms alongside apparel searches, and it is worth being clear about what Bear Grips Pro Shops handles and what it does not.
We do not cover: roller hockey helmets, gloves, elbow pads, shin guards, inline skates, roller hockey pants with integrated hip and tailbone protection, goal pads, chest protectors, or any other physical protective equipment. These are sourced from dedicated hockey equipment retailers like Pure Hockey, Hockey Monkey, or your regional sporting goods chain.
We do cover: everything that goes on after the gear comes off. The team shirt that says "Riverside Junior Roller Hockey" on the chest. The shorts that match the jersey at the recreational level. The hoodie that the whole team wears in the photo at the end-of-season party. The team tee that parents buy in adult sizes to cheer from the stands. That is the apparel layer, and it is what Bear Grips Pro Shops is built for.
