The Committee wanted to let you all know that they have been listening to your feedback and have some exciting news to share! After considering your concerns, we're thrilled to announce that we've signed a deal with a new kit supplier Y1.

This change will bring a modern design, great quality of kit and fresh ideas from our partnership with the Y1 team. We have also been very impressed by the customer service standards. We are really looking forward to seeing you all wearing the new kit and a big thank you to everyone who provided feedback on kit and shared their thoughts on next steps - your input has made a real difference.

I am sure this will raise a few questions but hopefully the information below will provide the answers, and you can look Y1 up on google to find out more information about them. Please bear with us while things settle as it's a major project and lot for us volunteers to cover.

We have shared some thoughts on new kit designs on the teams WhatsApp groups but if you have missed them, or if you have any questions please contact our Secretary:

Regards, Linda (Club Chairperson)

HOME SHIRT QUESTIONS
What size will I be? Samples have been requested and will be available towards end of June.

How much is the shirt? If bought in the initial bulk order £32.99, after that shirts will be available online for £36.99. We have done extensive research and feel these prices are competitive.

What if I don't want to buy a new shirt? That is fine! It will be a gradual kit change with Ladies 1s and Mens 1s taking the lead. Goal Keepers and umpires Kit will also be available!

Are Juniors/Colts are included in this transition? Yes!

AWAY SHIRT UPDATE
We are also looking at an alternative white shirt as many teams are not happy with Adidas style and they were due to be discontinued anyway. Design work is in progress and will be shared as soon as possible.

We have also asked Y1 to come to the club over the summer and show us the rest of the stock kit that they can supply, hoodies, training kit and more will be available!
