Uniform Updates - Phase 2

As outlined in the 'Sport Uniform Updates' document sent during Term 4 of 2023, we are pleased to share additional enhancements to select sports uniform items. It's important to note that the items mentioned below are not mandatory for general HPE (Health and Physical Education) use. 

 

1. Rugby Shorts

In compliance with CaSSSA regulations, students participating in Basketball, AFL, and Rugby fixtures must wear shorts without pockets. If your child chooses to engage in these sports, the purchase of the Rugby Shorts is required. Additionally, students have the option to wear these shorts for regular HPE lessons, in lieu of the Core Shorts. Apart from lacking pockets, this uniform item offers increased durability, ensuring a longer lifespan, especially during contact sports.

 

2. Bike Pants

Introducing our new performance Bike Pants, designed for competing in CaSSSA sports, for training or to be worn under either the Core Shorts or Rugby Shorts. Students are required to wear the College branded bike pants if the bike pants are visible. For example, if bike pants are worn under formal dresses, they do not have to be College branded bike pants. If bike pants are worn as an external garment (at training or CaSSSA sport), they must be the College branded bike pants.

Transition Period

Students may be requiredto purchase the Rugby Shorts in 2024. This will be advised by the Sport Department upon signing up for Basketball, AFL and Rugby.

 

There is a 12-month grace period for the Bike Pants. For example, if your child is in Year 8 in 2024, they will not be required to wear the new Bike Pants until the commencement of Year 9 in 2025.
