The Neath Rugby supporters have chosen the home strip for next season from a choice of four as presented by Samurai our new kit suppliers. The winning design was all black with a big Maltese cross in keeping with the more traditional Neath rugby jerseys of the fabled Neath glory years. The shorts and socks will also be all black.

Neath Rugby Chairman, Mike Cuddy, commented on the supporters choice ‘I didn’t get involved in the vote but really wanted the all black kit to win as I’ve had first hand experience of how it adds to the ethos and identity of this great Club. Everybody knows next season is a pivotal one with four or five teams going to be relegated. In sporting terms we are going to war and we need our iconic all black armour to strengthen us as a Club and ensure we are fighting at the top of the league. I can’t wait to see the boys run out at the Gnoll in it.’
