What uniform do I have to wear?

• Open athletes are encouraged to wear their Member Association or First Claim Club uniform.
• Underage athletes who are part of their state team must wear their approved Member Association uniform. Underage athletes not in the state team should wear the uniform of their First Claim Club.
• All uniforms must comply with the Australian Athletics uniform regulations (https://www.athletics.com.au/resources/?search=uniform).
• Watch for Nike Pro style garments (and similar from other manufacturers) with oversize branding around the top bands of lower body garments. Athletes will not be permitted to compete in items that do not comply with the advertising regulations, and taping or turning down the non-compliant branding is not allowed. Athletes should not wear these garments for on-field warm-up or competition.
