CLAC Uniform

 

Canterbury Athletics Uniform

Canterbury Athletics club uniform must be worn for competition on Friday nights and when representing the club at championship events.

  • Club uniform consists of a royal blue Canterbury Athletics singlet or crop top and black running shorts.
  • Black shorts are generic so you can wear any plain black running shorts or bike pants.
  • All required uniform items are available to purchase through our outsourced uniform shop provider, Sports Magic.

There is no uniform requirement to participate in the optional training sessions. However, if you’re looking for a lightweight top to train in, the Anniversary tee is a great choice.

Registration Bibs & Patch Placement (2025 update)

For the 2025/26 season, the Coles and Age patches have been combined. Rules regarding placement have been updated by Athletics NSW. Please see image/ points below.

  • Age Patch and Registration Bib must both be fixed to the front of the Canterbury Athletics singlet or crop top.
  • Registration numbers must be worn and visible by all Little Athletics NSW registered members, including Tiny Tots.
  • If space is limited on the front of the crop top, the registration number patch may be resized so that both patches fit. The red borders may be folded to reduce the overall size. Sponsor logos, registration number and season date must all remain visible.
  • Age patch can now be worn on either side of the singlet or crop top.

For noting:

Athletes will not be able to receive points or have their times recorded on competition night if they are not in full club uniform displaying their registration number. 

  • If your child is cold, please put a long sleeve shirt on under their singlet, since jumpers and jackets obscure the registration number.
  • Registration number bib and age patches are now both required to be placed to the athlete’s crop top or singlet, so it is no longer acceptable to have the age patch pinned to the athlete’s shorts.
  • We recommend patches are sewn on to avoid being lost, however you can also use safety pins.
  • Patches may be re-issued at cost, with requests assessed on a case by case basis.
  • Athletes will not be able to compete at Zone, Region and State Carnivals if they are not wearing club uniform.

 

Footwear

Children MUST wear shoes at all times to avoid possible injuries from broken glass, rocks or other dangerous matter.  It is compulsory to wear shoes at all association carnivals.

  • Spikes may be worn by 11 – 12 age groups in the long jump, triple jump, high jump, javelin and all events run in lanes.
  • Spikes may be worn by 13 – 17 age groups in the long jump, triple jump, high jump, javelin and all track events.
  • Spikes MUST be carried to each event and should only be worn while participating in the event.
  • At the end of each event, athletes must remove their spikes.
  • All other age groups may wear waffles or sneakers.
