VS Wear designs and manufactures custom sports uniforms for the football, netball, cricket and small-code clubs of Nelson Bay and Port Stephens, produced factory-direct at 30 to 40% below usual retail pricing and delivered on a guaranteed 3 to 4 week turnaround from design approval.
Twelve activities share one complex here, and every one of them gets drawn rather than templated.
Clubs order to the Tomaree Sports Complex across a code list most towns would need three venues for.
Guernseys, shorts, socks and training gear for the junior sides playing Dick Burwell Oval and Don Waring Oval. Browse our AFL uniforms range.
Strips, keeper tops, shorts and training gear for the sides using Tomaree sporting fields 2 to 5. Browse our soccer uniforms range.
Dresses, bodysuits, skirts and warm-ups for the grades on the Nelson Bay Netball Courts. Browse our netball uniforms range.
Playing shirts, pants, caps and training tops for the summer sides at the same complex. Browse our cricket uniforms range.
Shirts, polos, shorts and caps for the croquet and bocce clubs sharing the same site. Browse our lawn bowls uniforms range.
Hoodies, jackets, polos and supporter gear for a coastal winter and a very busy summer. Browse our off-field wear range.
The things clubs usually get charged extra for are already in the price.
Professional design is free, drawn by our in-house team from your colours, logo and ideas. Once your order is placed, mock-up revisions are unlimited right through to design approval.
Production is guaranteed at 3 to 4 weeks from the day you approve the design. The minimum order is 20 units per design.
The first line on that list is the one that matters most at a complex like this. A croquet club or a bocce club is usually offered a catalogue garment with a badge dropped onto it, because nobody expects a small code to be worth drawing for. Here the design work is free and identical whatever the sport, and the club with fifteen members gets the same in-house designers as the football club next door.
Worth looking past the football photos: the polos and shirts in there are the same job as a playing strip, drawn the same way.

View the VS Wear GalleryClubs order to the Tomaree Sports Complex at 20 Aquatic Close, which hosts croquet, rugby league, Australian football, soccer, touch football, baseball, cricket, bocce, netball, little athletics, rugby union and pickleball. Sides order to Tomaree sporting fields 2 to 5, to Dick Burwell Oval and to Don Waring Oval. Grades order to the Nelson Bay Netball Courts on the same site. Committees meet in the Bruce Scott Pavilion meeting room and hand gear out from a double-storey pavilion with change rooms, storage rooms, a canteen and a multipurpose room. Members order through Nelson Bay Croquet Club, Nelson Bay Junior Marlins AFL and the Nelson Bay Touch Football Association, with Nelson Bay Football and Nelson Bay Cricket involved in the complex as well.
Twelve activities is a long list, and the back half of it is made up of sports most suppliers treat as an afterthought. Croquet, bocce and pickleball clubs are used to choosing from a catalogue and having a logo added, which is not the same thing as having a uniform drawn for them.
Free professional design is attached to the order, not to the sport, so a club of fifteen members briefs the same in-house designers as a club of three hundred. Ask us to draw your code properly.
The clubs at the quiet end of that list are often the ones with three or four local backers to fit on a shirt. Unlimited placements is worth more to them than to anybody else on the site, because nothing is charged per badge.
Croquet and bocce both put players in shirts and shorts that look plain from a distance and are not plain at all up close, because the club's colours have to appear somewhere without breaking the convention. That is a design problem worth an in-house designer rather than a catalogue page, and it is included here like any other.
With winter codes, summer codes and year-round ones all working off the same fields, there is no single ordering season at this complex. That is an argument for booking your own design conversation when it suits your committee rather than when the site looks quiet.
Professional design is free, drawn by our in-house team from your colours, logo and ideas.
Once your order is placed, mock-up revisions are unlimited right through to design approval.
Every order carries our 100% remake guarantee: finished garments that do not match the approved artwork or production files are remade at our cost.
VS Wear is Australian owned and operated, and your order is looked after by our Australian-based team.
The real design consideration for a Nelson Bay club is whether its sport has ever been designed for at all. A shirt built around a club's own colours reads completely differently from a stock garment carrying a badge, and members notice immediately.
Because the drawing is free and the revisions are unlimited before approval, finding that out costs a small committee nothing but the time it takes to look.
Uniforms are designed and produced centrally, then freighted to whichever address your club or school nominates, whether that is a clubhouse, a home ground or a school office.
A complex with a street address and a staffed pavilion is a straightforward place to send a consignment, and a committee member's home covers the quieter weeks. We also supply Newcastle south around the bay and Maitland inland up the Hunter, and the full list of New South Wales cities we service covers the rest of the state through our New South Wales cities directory.
Committees pricing several grades at once can start with our free custom team uniforms guide, which covers sizing and artwork for multi-team orders.
A real one. Full custom design work is included at no charge whatever the code, drawn from your colours and crest rather than picked from a catalogue.
VS Wear designs and manufactures fully sublimated custom sports uniforms for clubs, schools, associations and corporate teams: playing kit, training gear, warm-ups and off-field wear across the football codes, netball, basketball, cricket and soccer. Every order is produced factory-direct and shipped Australia-wide.
You can, and each club still approves its own artwork. Sharing a delivery address is usually the practical benefit rather than anything to do with price.
No. Unlimited logos, sponsor placements, names and numbers are included, so the number of backers on a shirt does not change the price.
Three to four weeks from design approval, guaranteed. The design and revision stage sits in front of that, and how long it takes depends on how quickly your committee signs off the mock-up.
Yes, when somebody will be there to take it. A staffed pavilion is more reliable than a field nobody is standing at mid-week.
Yes. Nelson Bay primary and secondary schools order house sport colours, representative team uniforms and PE gear on the same factory-direct terms as the clubs, and a single year group usually clears the 20 unit minimum.
The minimum order is 20 units per design. Adult and junior sizes can share the one production run, so a single side with its coaching staff generally clears it.
No. VS Wear does not have a store or showroom in Nelson Bay. Every order is designed and produced centrally, then freighted to the address you nominate, whether that is a clubroom or a school office. That model is what holds pricing 30 to 40% below usual retail, and it means Nelson Bay clubs get the same free design service, the same guaranteed 3 to 4 week turnaround and the same Australian-based support as any other order in the country.
We deliver right around the bay. We supply Newcastle and Maitland, and we quote sides ordering out of Salamander Bay, Anna Bay, Shoal Bay, Raymond Terrace and Medowie. The pages linked above cover several in detail and the rest are quoted on identical terms.
One side or a whole club, and the design work is free either way, however small the code.
Send the garments, numbers and colours for a single side. The minimum order is 20 units per design.
Quote every grade in one pass. Production is guaranteed at 3 to 4 weeks from the day you approve the design.
Quick and easy. No payment details, no obligation.
