HOCKEY NZ OFFICIALS APPAREL
We have been working alongside our apparel provider to make New Balance apparel available for purchase for all officials throughout NZ.
Primarily, this apparel is for all our officials appointed to our HNZ domestic tournaments (excluding the Ford National Hockey Championship). The best way for us to do this is a pre-order window well ahead of tournaments. Our first window is now open and will be until the 3rd of May. Orders will be delivered from June 10 to individual’s addresses. The yellow shirts available are what you will have seen around over the last couple years, plus we’ve added a red shirt (2nd alternate colour) and a jacket. Note that the cheaper items on the site are what is left from old inventory in limited sizes and are not part of the pre-order window (these can be purchased at any time with what’s available). The pre-order items will have all size options available. Here is the link for you to browse and purchase:
There is also a size chart available once you click into each item. We have also recently messaged this information through our officials networks and our standard social media platforms. Any questions or feedback please contact HNZ Technical Manager, Colin French.
