US Kids Club -- have you found the recommended height range to be accurate?

Worm_Burner · May 10

Hi Everyone,

US Kids clubs are offered in 3-inch height brackets: 51-54 inches, 54-57 inches, 57-60 inches, etc.

In your experience with your own kids, have you found this recommended sizing to be an accurate guide?

Or are the size ranges biased upwards or downwards? For example, maybe the 57-60 inch clubs are ideal for kids that are 60 inches tall, but too long for kids who are 57 inches tall?

I realize every kid has different proportions, so no sizing guide will be perfect for every kid. But I'm curious to hear your own experience.

I'm asking because my daughter is 56 inches (with shoes on) and is growing quite quickly. In anticipation of her growth, it seems like the 57-60 inch clubs would be a reasonable choice -- but only if the sizing guide is correct. If the 57-60 inch clubs are a poor fit for 57-inch kids but a good fit for 60-inch kids, then they will probably be too large for my daughter.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Yes. I always moved up when he hit the next threshold.

I always leaned towards "shorter" than "longer" with my now 13 YO son. He went through just about every set age 5 - 10. I would usually have the next set on hand and ready once he hit the recommended height range, but found he played better with the previous set until he was 1"-2" into the new sets range. Not sure if it was length, weight, or just a learning curve but thats what worked best for him. I will also add he seems to have petty long arms, which may of also contributed.
