Central Coast Mariners
The Mariners announced their new playing strip on September 20: a throwback to the early days, with the Mariners traditional yellow serving as the base of the jersey.
Four palm trees and the words ‘The Community Club’ adorn the back just below the collar, a nod to the Mariners’ presence on the Central Coast and the role the club plays locally.
With the Masterfoods logo once more on the front of the jersey, it is assured the famous sauce bottles will be on display during the 2019/20 season at Central Coast Stadium.

The defending Premiers released their new strip on July 10, ahead of their blockbuster friendly against Premier League giants Manchester United.

Western United
Western United unveiled their inaugural playing kits in June, with the home strip composed of vertical green and black stripes, accompanied by the club’s unique shield-less club logo.
United went for something completely different with their alternate strip which features a geometric design inspired by the green wedge from within the new club logo.
According to the Hyundai A-League 2019/20 season debutants, the motif was derived from the west pointer in a 4-point compass rose to symbolise that: “no matter where the team plays, they will always pay respect to the fans and the values of the west.”
