Our current club uniform was introduced at the start of the 2003 winter season. Continuing to use Attack Sports as supplier, the current uniform is in a different cut to allow greater shoulder movement, and the arm trims and a strip down the shorts are stark white for even more contrast.Socks remain black with a maroon turnover. To the left you will see the uniform as modelled by David Downs and Colleen Downs. |

In 1999 the club switched suppliers, and restocked in a maroon top in Jacquard fabric with an embossed pattern. The black trim on the neck and armbands provided a slight contrast, and a new club logo was embroided on the chest. The shorts were plain black in a matching fabric style, and black socks with maroon turnover. To the left you will see the 1999 uniform as modelled by Debbie Pisani and Colleen Downs. Below is a graphic of the logo.  |

The color change away from yellow occurred in 1996, and consisted of maroon shirts with black collar,
and black taslon (parachute) shorts. The socks are black with a maroon turnover.
To the left you will see the uniform as modelled by Alex Blake
and Lucy Steele.
In 1992, an addition to the club logo was made. Drawn especially for the club by
renowned Herald-Sun cartoonist Jeff Hook, the new logo was supposed to be for the junior division,
but it proved so popular that it was adopted across the whole club.

In August 1986, the uniform became 'bone' with royal blue trim and blue shorts/skits and socks.
Over the years, 'bone' became yellow, (then 'canary yellow!') and the navy trim was dropped for simplicity and cheapness.
The socks eventually evolved into yellow with navy blue turnover.
Here we see a later edition of the uniform modelled by Janice Reardon (nee Mendes)
Below is the club logo of the period, here shown on a cloth badge.

After a couple of seasons, a blue trim was added to the plain emerald green. A small logo was also printed over the right breast.
Here is the top modelled (years later) by Cassandra Downs

The first uniform was emerald green with royal blue skirts. Here we see
Sherreen Angleton and
Vicky Vanstan from the 1979 E Grade team.

Members of the very first team (1977 North E) were all presented with an inaugural medallion. Note M.L.H.C. - Melton Ladies Hockey Club! Thanks to Vicky Bailey for the loan!
