Jerseys maybe in place for turning (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tops

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'jerseys maybe' is the definition.
(jersey is a type of top)

'place for turning' is the wordplay.
'place' becomes 'top' (top is a kind of place).
'for turning' becomes 's' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'top'+'s'='TOPS'

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tops that I've seen before include "spinners" , "Beats" , "Maybe puts icing on" , "The Four -, Motown group" , "Surpasses; toys" .)
