The South African national netball team and Puma have unveiled the kits for the upcoming 2023 Vitality Netball World Cup tournament in June.
As it will be hosted in Cape Town, Puma and Splash PR announced that the United Warriors kit will be worn by the SPAR Proteas team at the global tournament to be staged in July.
According to the media release, the replica Home and Away kit will be available at Puma stores, Puma retail, Totalsports, and Sportsmans Warehouse from Thursday, March 09.
At the same time, the German sports manufacturer also unveiled a range of fanwear across men’s, women’s, and kids’ sizes.
“We launched the Home and Away kits on International Woman’s Day to honour women across the world and to celebrate the Women’s World Cup coming to South Africa,” said Puma South Africa Marketing Director Brett Bellinger.
“The kit features the latest technical fabric used by PUMA performance teams, and the design is inspired by African art, and our country’s symbols.”
The kit campaign video features SPAR Proteas players in the Home and Away kits and these inspirational words:
“I’ve waited for this moment. I’ve sweat. I’ve bled. I’ve tried. And cried. I’ve failed. Then won. I did it all for this moment where I can say “WE”. Because this game is greater than me. We did it all to represent YOU. And we would do it again … We are a team. We are a nation of culture. So we will fight. We will play with pride. Because we are united. And together…we are Warriors,” added Bellinger.
“South Africa is a diverse country and the story of this team, and this kit design is that our strength lies in our diversity. Makes us world beaters.
“The kit is a call for all South Africans and all sports to unite behind the Team as they embark on the opportunity to compete in a World Cup on South African soil.”
On behalf of Netball South Africa, president Cecilia Molokwane expressed her excitement, saying the technical sponsor has provided a stunning kit for the ladies.
“PUMA South Africa has provided a striking kit concept for this passionate team of warriors who continue to fight no matter the odds.
“The campaign will encourage South Africans to unite behind the team, and we look forward to a wonderful and successful World Cup.
“I strongly believe that the team will also take to court with pride and full of confidence because this new kit oozes nothing but confidence.”
