While the first-choice strip retains the gold jersey, navy shorts and navy socks that Hyundai A-League fans have become accustomed to, Newcastle's' alternate strip is different to anything the club has worn in the past. A navy jersey, with gold and red trim, sits atop white shorts and white socks.

Club chief executive, John Tsatsimas, today expressed his excitement regarding the new-look outfits.

"The new season kits certainly do look fantastic," he said. "We've maintained the tradition of the home strip by keeping a similar look to previous seasons. We felt that this was an important image to continue with as it comprises a significant part of our club's identity."

"The alternate strip is something completely different to what the team has worn before, it gives us something totally fresh, so I'm sure that the supporters will appreciate the change and become fond of the new look.

"Now all football fans, including myself, will be eagerly awaiting the new season to see these kits out on the pitch."

Meanwhile, the team will travel to Port Macquarie on the NSW mid-North Coast tomorrow to prepare for a Pre-Season trial this Sunday, July 12 against state rivals Sydney FC.

The Jets will then stay an extra day up north to attend the club's Junior Jets Coaching Clinics on Monday to sign autographs and give children in Port Macquarie the opportunity to meet with the team.
