OLDHAM Rugby League Club can today unveil the home and away shirts for the upcoming 2023 Betfred League One season.
The wait is over for fans, and the shirts - designed by our kit partners Ellgren - are available to pre-order now.
The home jersey features the familiar and popular red and white hoops with blue trim, while the away shirt offers a fresh look with it being grey, yellow and black.
Said Chairman Chris Hamilton:
“Firstly we apologise for the fact that we were not able to get these out earlier. With the current economic climate, I am sure people will understand that it has been harder to secure sponsorship and it has inevitably taken longer as a result.
“However, I am delighted with the position we have reached and together with the newly announced deal with Amari Plastics Manchester as our new Main Sponsor, we have managed to retain a number of existing partners and have also managed to bring some new companies on board.
“Despite all the challenges we continue to face, we are making progress off the field, as well as hoping to emulate that on the field this season and this is very encouraging, as people are literally buying into what the club means to the fans and the wider community.
“There has been a lot of hard work gone in to get the club to this position and we are very much looking forward to working with all our kit sponsors - old and new - throughout the coming 12 months.
“We hope that people will really like the new home and away designs, with the home kit retaining the hoops that are so popular whilst the away kit is a new and fresh design."
Priced at £48 for adults and £35 for children, pre-orders for the shirts will be delivered before our Challenge Cup game.
Sizes start from small to 7XL for men, with women’s sizes ranging from 6-22 (6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22).
Children’s start at 4 and go 6,8,10,12,14,16.
