Newcastle Jets extend collaboration with Legend Sportswear

Newcastle Jets and Legend Sportswear

Newcastle Jets have disclosed a renewal of their clothing contract for the next season with Australian-owned Legend Sportswear.

Legend Sportswear is an Australian family-owned and operated in business since 2004 – they will provide the Newcastle Jets with their on-field jerseys as well as training apparel for the upcoming season.

Legend Sportswear is the ultimate custom sports apparel company. Legend Sportswear has grown from humble beginnings to become legendary, from production to an international brand to sportspeople. They provide a door to door service with an unrivalled attention to detail and innovation to world class standards providing the winning edge on and off the field.

Newcastle Jets Executive Chairman Shane Mattiske is pleased to have Legend Sportswear on board again for the following season, continuing their strong partnership with the club.

“Legend have been working very closely with us in designing our new jerseys for the coming season and we’re proud to unveil our new jersey which we will be debuting in the Australia Cup on Monday night against Melbourne Victory in Darwin,” he said via press release.

“I’m very excited for our fans to see our new jerseys and training range for the upcoming A-League Men’s and Women’s season and I know our fans will love them.”

Legend Sportswear offers a wide range of products for athletes across a variety of sports, while also providing a range of active wear and can provide customised solutions for teams or organisations.

The Legend Sportswear Newcastle Jets home jersey is gold with navy trim on the collar, cuffs and hem. A honeycomb pattern partially covers the shirt with gaps left in between the sections. A thin red line is part of each cuff, while all logos on the home jersey are navy. The away shirt is predominantly white with gold stripes on the bottom half that fade away as they reach the middle of the jersey. The round neck collar and cuffs are also gold.

The move is smart from Newcastle Jets as they support a local business in Legend Sportswear, giving the business a professional partner to further grow the company.

Melbourne Victory’s brand-new infrastructure strategy

Melbourne Victory & SEDA

A-League giant Melbourne Victory has revealed a brand-new extensive infrastructure strategy to foster and support tomorrow’s footballing stars.

The strategic infrastructure plan set out by Victory will aim to develop youth and women’s football programs by providing improved access to world class footballing facilities and player pathways across Victoria.

To achieve this, Melbourne Victory has opted for a campus model to enable players access to connected and consistent facilities across the North, East, South and West of Melbourne, all within an hour’s journey of Victory’s club administrative centre and the A-League Men’s training facilities at Gosch’s Paddock.

The club also intends to build another campus within the Melbourne city centre, with the first campus location to be announced by the club soon, as it continues to review and assess possible sites across the city.

Melbourne Victory Chairman, John Dovaston, explained why the club had chosen the campus model.

“The announcement of this project, and the direction taken, is aimed at ensuring we are best placed to attract and retain football talent across the State,” he said in a press release.

“Our innovative approach will allow us to have a number of campuses with not only an elite focus, but also, an eye on building our community to ensure that all Victorians have an opportunity to participate and engage in our game.”

Melbourne Victory Managing Director, Caroline Carnegie, outlined why the new infrastructure strategy was so important to the club.

“It is well understood that sport and football can influence social cohesion, and it’s our responsibility as a Club to establish infrastructure and programs that can positively impact members of the community, regardless of gender, background or location, whether that be through training the next generation of football stars, or using football as a vehicle to lead, unite, connect and inspire the community more broadly,” she said via press release.

“By enabling Victory to connect with communities across the North, South, East, and West of AAMI Park, our spiritual home, we can truly grow the Victory family and set new standards for elite facilities in our Pathway and community programs.”

The infrastructure project is an important move for the club, allowing it to grow, improve and future-proof its current suite of footballing programs. Currently, Victory operates nine elite and 23 pathway programs, providing services to over 16,000 participants across Victoria. Through the campus model, the club hopes it will be able to more efficiently develop the new generation of A-League and national team players.

“The priority is to provide not just an entry point for individuals to engage and participate in football, but to keep them engaged and provide a holistic journey to grow the Victory family across the State,” Carnegie continued.

“We are excited about the opportunities that the project can provide and the potential for growth for our Club and for football in the future.”

Melbourne Victory will continue to issue updates as it sets on the 5-year-plus journey to complete the entire project. For more information on the club’s major infrastructure strategy, access the plan HERE.
