Uniform

The Newington squad presents itself in a uniform manner each week and appears as a team both on and off the track. Each boy should have a Newington track-suit as part of his general school uniform and this should be used each week. A Newington Athletics long-sleeve T-shirt is available from the Newington Shop. Boys may wear normal PE gear until the GPS team is finalised. (NB: football jumpers are NOT part of the Athletics uniform).
