Whether standing on the sidelines or being in the midst of all the action, everyone involved in sporting activities wants to feel valued as the star player.

Increasingly, sports clubs are turning to Jerzees superb range to provide the cohesive and co-ordinated look, integral to providing that all important sense of community and professionalism.

George Watson's (Watsonians) Hockey Club, based in Edinburgh, is just one club which has been quick to embrace Jerzees' range. With a long history stretching back many decades, the Watsonians Hockey Club has seven teams (four mens, three womens) competing in various national, regional and district leagues and cups - indoor and outdoor -each week throughout the year. With a large membership and club sponsors to consider, using garments with the right look and with high performance fabrics is critical.

The 539M and the 539F Hard-Wearing Pique Polo Shirts are the match garment of choice at Watsonians, both of which are proving popular with sports teams across the country. Both are easy care garments, made from a 65/35 polyester/ring spun cotton mix, and therefore ideal for the demands of competitive sport.

Available in 15 bright colours and size ranges from XS up to 6XL, and with the fitted style of the 539F, which provides a more feminine look, every club member can find a polo shirt to suit and fit them. As with all of Jerzees garments, the fabric is carefully designed to provide an ideal surface for decoration, all-important for the team crest or logo.

Commenting on the club's choice of Jerzees, Watsonians Hockey Captain William Bald said, 'Playing competitive hockey every weekend with practices each week places demands not only on our players but also on our sports kit. Jerzees is renowned for offering high quality garments and good value for money, both which are important factors when we're buying in bulk for our club and our players, as individuals.

'What has really impressed us about Jerzees garments however, is the durability of our kit, which can be washed and worn time and time again without worries of shrinkage or fabric deterioration. It's these factors which have led us to return to Jerzees each season to supply kit for our growing membership.'

The Jerzees range caters for all kinds of sporting (and weather!) circumstances. Jerzees 411M Sprinter Jacket, for example, is an excellent light-weight companion for sporting activities. Made from a 70/30 cotton/nylon shell with a polyester mesh body lining, and a water repellent coating, this is ideal for reflecting a sense of style while deflecting the elements.

Proving to be a huge success after its launch last September, Jerzees' Microfleece range is another perfect accompaniment to any sporting kit. Turning the traditional trade notion of 'heaviest is best' on its head, the Micro+ range is made from 190g/m2 fabric - a fraction of the weight of conventional arctic fleece

This super lightweight fabric is made from incredibly small, smooth microfibres which, knitted together, form an extremely dense fabric which resists wind and light rain. The close cut, dense pile of the fabric also creates a beautifully smooth surface, ideal for embroidering and printing club sponsor details and logos.

Commenting on the success of Jerzees' range, Jerzees' Director of Business Development Jacqui Gale added, 'Jerzees has been quick to pick up on the demand for high quality sportswear. Our focus on the creation of high quality garments which offer good decoration potential, low maintenance hard-wearing features, comfort and excellent lifetime value has really kept us, and the teams which choose Jerzees, ahead of the crowd.'

Jerzees offers a wide range of easily decorated garments specifically designed as schoolwear, corporatewear and promotional wear. Each and every garment is underpinned by Jerzees' heritage of quality, reliability and ethics offering a lifetime value which is second to none.
