Waverley Hockey Club Team Uniform
In 2024 we have three options for you to purchase uniform:
- Second uniform via second hand sales at the Club
- Current uniform by Kookaburra via online and also via sales at the Club
- New uniform (Compulsory for PL / PLR on 2024. Other levels and age groups can order if prefer or if their size is no longer available in the current Kookaburra uniform) – order during limited order windows via Grays online shop
Please find below more information about each option.
1. Second hand uniform
We encourage reuse of uniform at all levels, except for PL / PLR which are required to wear the most current WHC uniform.
We encourage all members to donate uniforms, merchandise and equipment they no longer require (eg shoes). Players can donate uniform and merchandise they no longer require (please ensure it is clean and in decent condition) by dropping uniform and merchandise at the Club in the designated second hand bin or contact us via uniform@waverleyhc.org.au.
Second hand uniforms and equipment are available to purchase on regular occasions during pre season, including during Junior Academy and during pre season training nights (when we have volunteers to man the stall).
If you would like to arrange to view available stock please contact us via uniform@waverleyhc.org.au.
2. Current uniform by Kookaburra
Current uniform is now only available at the Club (no longer available at Just Hockey). Uniform can be purchased either online (see below) or via the second hand uniform stall when operating at the Club.

We recommend you check if your size is available so you can decide if you order the current uniform by Kookaburra or the new uniform by Grays. We do have lots of the Kookaburra uniform still in stock but some sizes are limited so you may be lucky, or you may need to buy the new Grays uniform (which has very limited order windows – see below).
How do I order?
Click here to view the online store https://waverley-hockey-club.square.site/
You can pick the items you want, your colour and size and then pay online with a credit card.
How do I pick it up if I have ordered online?
Once we get your order our volunteers will package it up for you and leave it with the canteen team for collection. Please allow at least a week for this to occur. If your order is urgent, please let us know at uniform@waverleyhc.org.au.
How do I try uniform on?
If you would like to arrange to view available stock and / or try sizing please contact us via uniform@waverleyhc.org.au.
How long will this uniform be worn?
Generally, we are not strict on what uniform the lower grades of seniors and juniors play in. PL, PLR and Shield juniors do have uniform requirements. PL & PLR are required to wear the new uniform from the start of the 2024 season. Junior Shield teams will transition in 2025. Other teams can continue to wear a mix of the old and new.
Are there any differences between this uniform and the new Grays uniform?
From a distance they look very similar. The only real difference is the alternate socks which are light blue in the Kookaburra range and white in the new Grays range.
What happens if I cannot get my size in the Kookaburra stock and I have missed the Grays order window?
If you are a PL/PLR player please contact your Unit Chair. All other players please wear navy / white plain top / bottoms until a uniform is available.
3. New uniform by Grays
Waverley is pleased to present a new uniform for the 2024 season (and onwards). This uniform is available to purchase online a couple of times per season within designated order periods. To find out when the next order will be made contact uniform@waverleyhc.org.au or check the WHC Facebook page for updates.
What is different?
The new uniform features a racer-back style (or a standard back style) for the Women and printed playing numbers on the back (as opposed to the former ironed-on playing numbers) for the PL/PLR/Shield players. In addition, the alternate socks have changed from a light blue to white, to match the white away shirt.
How do I order?
The new uniform is available through the Grays site, see below.
When ordering please ensure the correct uniform option is chosen, including age range and gender (JNR – Junior, WMNS – Womens, MENS – Mens), and if you are required to have a number, choose the (PL/PLR) option.
