The jersey, designed by First Move Sport and manufactured by Ciovita, was inspired by ‘Playful Living’, a design trend characterised by a playful reaction to the ordinary.

“Now, more than ever, it’s essential to keep ourselves inspired and motivated and not to get discouraged by the hard times we have faced. This period is at the same time really uncertain but also filled with an amazing number of opportunities and new horizons.” ~ Kathy Crabbe, First Move Sport.

The jersey design expresses energetic humour; boasting an array of colourful creativity, symbolising a new optimistic attitude, and embracing a desire for life to simply be… more fun!  “We are extremely grateful for our sponsors’ continued support and for trusting us enough to colour outside the conventional ‘Pro Team’ lines with this jersey design. We love it and the feedback has been phenomenal. The requests have been rolling in, so we’re planning on making it available to the public.” ~ Kandice Venter, First Move Sport.
