The Cheetahs Executive has decided not to
proceed with a follow-up order of uniform pieces this season. The
production time frame quoted was longer than originally anticipated and
delivery would not be in time for the final event
of the season. Further, since all athletes requesting a uniform have been
provided with a new singlet (despite the ~40% increase in athletes
this season), all who wish to represent the Cheetahs in competition are
able to do so.
Additional uniform pieces will be ordered in
advance of the 2017 season and will take into account the specific size
shortages experienced this year. There will be multiple uniform
exchange/pick-up sessions scheduled next season, during
which all athletes without the optimal sizes or new style of jacket and
pants will be able to exchange. And as always, athletes who have
outgrown their uniform will be able to exchange for larger
sizes.
