Every club has a story; ours is stitched into every thread.

We are incredibly excited to share a first glimpse of the new North Wellington FC kit. This design is more than just a fresh look for the upcoming season; it is a tribute to the people and the history that built the foundation of this club. Every detail has been chosen with intention, connecting the generations of players, volunteers, and supporters who have worn our colours with pride.

Honouring Our Legends

In a first for the club, the new shirt features the names of those who have reached significant milestones in our history. Subtly woven into the sleeves are the names of our Life Members, along with players who have made over 100 First Team appearances or scored 50 or more First Team goals. These aren’t just names; they represent the dedication and the stories that have shaped North Wellington FC.

Respecting Our Roots

Our club today stands united thanks to the legacy of our founding clubs: Onslow (1934), Johnsonvilla (1954), and Newlands Paparangi United (1968). Their founding years are honoured within the design, acknowledging the deep football heritage of the North Wellington region.

On the back of the neck, you will find the year 1972, a subtle but powerful nod to the year North Wellington FC began its own journey.

Values at Our Core

At North Wellington, we lead with our values: Inclusion, Respect & Integrity, Community, and Ambition. These values are now printed inside the collar, serving as a quiet reminder of what we stand for every time a player pulls on the shirt.

What’s Next?

While these detail shots offer a look at the craft behind the kit, the wait for the full reveal won't be long.
