GLOBAL sports company PUMA and Netball South Africa today unveiled the Home and Away kits for the SPAR Proteas women’s team as well as for the men’s national team.
There is also a new Unisex Home replica shirt for netball fans.
The kit design is a continuation of the United Warriors theme from the World Cup campaign in 2023.
It features the national colours and takes the South African flag as the key design element, paying homage to the symbol that binds us all. This design also features in the new Unisex Home replica shirt.
“The national flag features in the new Home and Away kits, because we wanted to focus on the enduring strength of the SPAR Proteas which comes from being united in their diversity,” said PUMA South Africa, Marketing Director Brett Bellinger.
“The kits are inspired by teams who are fuelled by passion. By players who never say die, no matter the odds. Who always look forward to future successes.”
The campaign video for the women’s kit features SPAR Proteas players and the inspirational words: “We remember the sweat-soaked dresses, the echoes of cheers and groans. Every catch, a shared victory. But our strength goes beyond the court. We are sisters, friends, family, unified by our crest and national flag. Trust. We rise together … unbreakable. This is our story. This is our legacy. We are the United Warriors.”
Netball South Africa President, Cecilia Molokwane, passionately emphasized the significant impact of a strong visual presentation on athletic performance.
“I am a firm advocate of the notion that when you look good, you play good. Our carefully crafted 2024/25 kit, in collaboration with PUMA, authentically embodies the strength of the SPAR Proteas that is rooted in their unity amid diverse talents and backgrounds. I am convinced that it will instil a deep sense of pride and motivation in our players, empowering them to showcase their absolute best on the court,” said Molokwane.
The Unisex Home replica shirt will be available at PUMA Retail stores, PUMA.com and Totalsports from 2 October 2024.
Retail price R499.
