Indigenous Round Jersey 

Today we launched our new Indigenous round jersey, designed by local Aboriginal artist and Yuin man, Billy Reynolds. His artwork ‘Coastal Connections’ is about the grounds on which we play today, Queens Park, which was once connected to Centennial Park.
The area was once a meeting place for the Bidjigal, Kameygal and Gweagal people of Botany Bay and the Gadigal and Birrabirragal people, who lived nearer to Watson's Bay. The parks had fresh waterways which provided Aboriginal people with plentiful food and spaces for them to camp, trade and hold meetings during their journeys.
The circle in the middle of Billy’s artwork represents this meeting place and the features on either side represent Aboriginal people coming together. As Waverley is on the coast, Billy used gradients of blue and yellow to represent the land meeting the ocean.
We would like to thank Billy Reynolds, Fran Grant and Jonathan Ward for this special collaboration.
