VOTE NOW for a New Alternate Colour Referees Shirt

February 3rd, 2010

We have recently received news from Northern NSW Football that we have the option to order a new alternate colour referees shirt, to give us an extra colour option in addition to our current black and yellow shirts.

For this to happen however, we need to order a minimum number of shirts, SO we are giving YOU, the members, the opportunity to tell us whether you would be interested in buying a new alternate colour shirt and if so, what colour you would prefer.

The suggestions for colours that have been put forward for the additional alternate colour shirt are; Sky Blue or Bright Pink.

So members, please use the poll below to cast you vote on what colour you would purchase (if any) and as long as we have enough interest to make an order, the most popular colour at the end of our poll will be added to our current selection of black and yellow shirts.

YOU MUST BE LOGGED IN TO THE MEMBERS ONLY AREA TO VOTE.

Would you purchase an alternate colour referees shirt and if so, what colour?

  • I am not interested in purchasing an alternate colour referees shirt (8%)
  • Bright Pink (46%)
  • Sky Blue (46%)

Total Votes: 37
