Team Uniforms On A Calendar Where Winter Starts In March.
Most of what is written about ordering team kit assumes a northern-hemisphere year. In Australia the seasons run the other way: winter sports play through the colder months, summer sports take the pitches back around spring, and the school year runs from late January to December. An Australian club or school that follows northern-hemisphere ordering advice will find the dates are off by about six months. We offer zero MOQ on samples and 20 pieces per design for bulk, made in-house in Sialkot.
Planning Around Australian Seasons, Not European Ones.
Exact dates differ by state, sport and competition. Treat the table as a planning frame, and check your own fixture list.
| Winter Sports | Summer Sports | |
|---|---|---|
| Typical Months | From around March or April through to August or September. | From around October through to March. |
| Examples | Football codes, netball and hockey, among others. | Cricket, and some netball and softball competitions. |
| Kit Needs | Long sleeves, warm-ups and layers for cold mornings. | Lightweight, breathable fabric, sun protection and caps. |
| When To Start | Spring and summer of the previous year, ahead of pre-season. | Winter, ahead of the first spring fixtures. |
Two Buyers, One Year Of Terms.
A school typically thinks in terms and carnivals: sports uniforms for house events, representative teams and PE. A club thinks in seasons, registration days and sponsors. Both need to allow for the long summer holidays over December and January, when approvals and decision-makers can be hard to reach.
If your first fixture is in autumn, try to settle design and artwork before the end-of-year break, so the sample step can run while people are away. If the order is for house colours, confirm swatches early, because colour matching is the most common source of delay.
For sport-specific pages, see cricket, rugby, guernseys and netball.
Season Ordering Checklist
- Mark the first fixture or carnival date.
- Count back through freight and customs, which vary.
- Add bulk of about ~18 days and the sample step of about 8–10 days.
- Leave room for your own approval days, including holidays.
- Send artwork, swatches and the roster early.
One Identity For Both Seasons.
Shared Crest And Colours
Multi-sport clubs and schools often keep one crest and palette, with the cut and fabric changed per sport. Brief us once and we apply it across designs.
Sun And Warm Layers
A summer set may add a long-sleeve sun-protective top or cap, and a winter set a hoodie or jacket. See teamwear and caps and beanies.
Reorders And New Starters
Players and students join each term. A saved design and size record make a top-up easy to quote. See the reorder guide.

Start with a sample. Each order has a private tracking page with photos, and shipping is quoted per order with tracking provided.
Common Questions.
When should we order for a winter season that starts around March or April?
Count back from your first fixture. A sample takes about 8–10 days, bulk about ~18 days after approvals, and freight and customs clearance come on top. Freight times vary and are not guaranteed, so clubs that begin the conversation in the preceding spring and summer months are generally more comfortable than those who start in the new year.
Can a club order for the winter and summer seasons together?
Yes. Clubs that play more than one sport often brief us once on colours and crest, and order a winter set and a summer set from the same identity. Each design is quoted and counted separately for the 20-piece minimum.
Can a school order in house colours?
Yes. House colours are a common request for carnivals and inter-house events. Each colourway is a separate design for the 20-piece bulk minimum, so decide how many houses you need before we quote. We match colours against the swatch or digital reference you send.
Our competition has uniform rules. Do you follow them?
Rules differ by sport, association and school, and we cannot read them for you. Send the relevant clause or handbook page with your artwork, and we will adjust the layout on the sample. You confirm the final design is acceptable.
What about customs, duty and GST?
Check your local import requirements. We prepare the commercial invoice and packing list for every shipment, quote shipping per order and provide tracking.
How do we pay?
By bank transfer or Wise, against an official quotation or invoice. We do not take card payments. You can check our business verification before you pay.
