Confirmation of Jersey & Track Suit Order

For this trip, you will have to bring along 3 jerseys for the school visits.

Jersey #1: 2011 School Team player jersey
Jersey #2: "Aspire" Training Tee
Jersey #3: the butterfly jersey (set) you ordered today

Those without Jersey #1, I will try to order for u but need to check if there are still available stock.
Those without Jersey #2, as this was ordered from a commom T shirt printer (not specialising in Table Tennis jerseys), it is impossible to reprint and you can wear any other AMKSS Jersey or PE T shirt you have., alternatively, u can borrow it from those who are not going for the trip.

For Jersey #3, the confirmed design will be B1 (according to majority's choice), and the Track Suit will be C. The order has been placed and change of sizes is not possible.

As we are ordering from overseas and I do not want to risk missing the shipment to SG, I have all of them delivered to Taiwan (our Tour Leader's House), so you will receive the Jersey and Track Suit upon arrival at the airport.

You will be advised on what clothes to wear for which day during the parents' briefing. 

The cost of the Jersey #3 set is confirmed as $16. 

The cost of the track suit is pending because we are looking into doing the embroidery of your name and the school name in Taiwan, and we are yet to find out the cost of embroidery there. We will let you know the confirmed cost for track suit probably during the parents' briefing. Estimated cost of the track suit before embroidery is $25.

Order your Jersey and Track Suit by Wednesday, 12pm.

Please order your jersey and track suit by Wednesday, 12pm. We are running a tight schedule as we are ordering from overseas.

Order of Track Suit (Overseas Trip Specified)

We have two choices for the track suits here and both happened to be black. Please choose the design you like and fill in the order form.

Approx cost per suit is S$22-25. Material is silky to the feel.

However, if you really dislike both designs, you can leave comments under this post and we can get it in SG but it will be S$45-55 per suit. Whatever the case, you still have to fill up the form. 

For this suit, if we are getting what u see in the blog, we will be getting from overseas, and there will not be time for embroidery. You will probably receive it only at the airport or in school on 10/11. So alternatively, we may be wearing our school badge on the jacket instead. if we order locally, we may still be able to stitch our sch name and your name on the jacket.

The decision is yours. Response by 12pm on Wed.
