T-Shirt Sign Up Form
A charity run organiser ordering team t-shirts for sixty volunteers
Six questions that give you the exact count per size and colour to send to the printer, with no guessing.
6 questions: 3 short answers, 2 dropdowns, 1 multiple choice question.
A t-shirt order goes wrong in one predictable way: the sizes. People guess, the printer needs exact numbers per size, and someone always ends up in an XL they will sleep in. The form is built around getting the size right once.
Size as a dropdown, with the guide in the form
Sizes XS to XXL in a dropdown, and the size chart (chest measurement per size) written in the question’s description, or added as an image. A dropdown gives the printer a count per size straight from the summary chart; a text box gives you “medium-ish”.
Quantity and name
“How many?” is a dropdown from 1 to 4, because someone always orders for their partner. If the shirts are printed with names, the name to print is its own question, with a note that it will be printed exactly as typed.
What the form cannot do
It cannot take payment. Say how and when people pay in the description, and add a “Paid” column to the linked spreadsheet. Close the form on the printer’s deadline; the summary chart for the size question is then the order you send.
