The Wildcats are going to have a whole new look in the Fall! As part of the club's rebranding and selection of a new logo for its 40th anniversary, the Board of Directors recently voted on new uniforms for both its Intramural and Travel programs.
Coaches and administrators have heard lots of feedback over the years from Intramural parents about their desire to get more breathable jerseys. The reversible nature of the Intramural top is essential to ensuring the Saturday games run smoothly, with all players having easy access to both the home and away colors in a single shirt. However, this meant that the jersey was 2-ply, and very hot and heavy for the players. But, after scouring far and wide for a single-ply, reversible jersey, we were finally find one made by SCORE Sports. The new uniform has upgraded shorts and socks as well as a more fitted jersey. The new uniform will replace all uniforms for Micro, Intramural and Senior Intramural programs. Socks will be red for the Micros.
For the Fall 2017 season, the old uniforms will be grandfathered and allowed on the field, but we're guessing that many will want to make the switch. Micro / Intramural uniforms will still be purchased at Sport Loft in NHP.

As far as our Travel program, New Hyde Park has never had a single uniform for all its teams. In years past, each team chose its own apparel manufacturer and model as long as they stayed within certain guidelines. However, in its desire to unite the program and create a more unified identity, the Board elected to go with a single Adidas uniform for all teams. We chose the Adidas Tiro 17 model, and we also upgraded the non-mandatory spirit wear, such as the warm up suit, jackets and bag.
All uniforms now bear the club's new shield. Some teams may elect to stay with their existing uniform until 2018, but all teams will convert by the Fall of 2018, and the club is financially incentivizing those teams who elect to shift sooner than later.
