Uniform

Mt Barker LAC requires ALL registered athletes to wear full uniform when attending all state, interclub or association events. 

Appropriate footwear is compulsory for safety reasons. Athletes may not be able to participate if they are not in the correct footwear. Safe footwear includes either velcro or lace-up shoes that enclose the toes.

Spikes are ONLY permitted for U11+ (subject to event rules).

As we follow a Sun Smart policy, athletes will also be encouraged to wear a hat when not competing, as well as wear 30+ sunscreen.

Athletes requiring alternative uniform items for medical or cultural reasons may request an exemption.

Uniform Patches

Once an athlete has registered, at the start of the season, they will receive three cloth patches for their uniform. One will be their athlete registration number (for the current season), their age group patch and a Coles sponsor patch. These patches need to be sewn on the MBDLAC uniform.

Friday Night Club Meets

Athletes can wear either the blue MBDLAC shirt or the white club training shirt. On the bottom options are black shorts or leggings , or MBDLAC embroidered shorts.

The training shirts, which can be purchased from the club, can be worn during home meets, training sessions, and any other events that your child wishes to represent Mount Barker LAC in (Christmas pageant, parkrun events etc). 

Training shirts are NOT to be worn at any SALAA-based events.

Come and Try Athletes may wear a blue or black T-Shirt, and any athletes waiting on a polo shirt from Work Locker may wear a Blue or Black T-Shirt in the interim (please temporarily attach bib and age group number).

SA Athletics Stadium Meets

All registered athletes MUST wear the full uniform with all of the appropriate badges attached at all SA Athletics Stadium events. Disqualification can occur at SA Athletics Stadium Meets when the correct uniform isn’t worn. This includes all required patches being correctly attached to the uniform.

Winter Season Events

For Cross Country events, athletes may wear black leggings in lieu of their approved Centre shorts colour and must conform to Rule 143.3.

For Race Walking events, only approved uniform shorts may be worn and they must be above the knee.
