Uniforms

MANDATORY UNIFORM

Each Little Athletics Centre has its own uniform and Little Athletics NSW, requires that all athletes must wear the Centre uniform. “No uniform, No run!”

Accordingly, athletes must compete in the The Ponds Little Athletics Centre uniform each Friday, wearing their specific Athlete’s Number on their top front. (Parents please don’t get sibling numbers mixed, it confuses the computer!)

All athletes must wear their TPLAC uniform with patches in the correct spot from our Tiny Tots to our Seniors.

✅ McDonald’s Bib Number – centre of the top
✅ Coles Age Patch – right side of the top, above the registration number to ensure the logo is not covered (where possible)

👉 If your top is smaller, the Coles patch can overlap slightly, but it must not cover the McDonald’s logo or number.
