KIT
Players have the opportunity to purchase School of Rugby kit by the following link to the Staffordshire Kit Website - http://sru.sportreach.co.uk/
The page includes a range of kit that is made by Nike and has the County Knot and the England Rose, together with their initials.
It is important that parents put the player’s name on the form where they have to fill in their details, as that is how they pick up on the initials to put on the kit.
The TEAM WOVEN WARM UP SEMI CUFFED jacket has trousers included, it does say tracksuit but does not make it clear that there are trousers with it at the moment.
