Pick a design!

Posted by phil b on 04/05/13 at 15:09:50

Right guys,
I know this is a bit late, been quite busy. There are a few designs up and we could do with picking which one we like best. I've been too busy to finish mine off but hopefully you should be able to visualise it from the description, If you're not sure though, don't worry, I wont be upset. Just put down which one you like best.

New Kit!

Posted by phil b on 29/04/13 at 10:09:43

Hey guys,
Just starting a fresh topic, the other one was getting very messy and a pain to trawl through and decipher.
Going to use this one as the official rolling list of who wants new kit. We did some talking at last training and it was decided that we needed a deadline to get names down for kit / pick a design / generally get things organised, the 5th May was suggested and seems to be a reasonable amount of time so get your name down before then. The general consensus seemed to suggest that people wanted shorts as well so this needs organising. Also after words about away kit it was suggested that we use the 'old' kent white kit as away. People seemed to be happy with this and I was informed we had enough to field a team, so unless anyone has any major objections to this I think this is what we should do. When we get everything decided we shall announce how we're going to sort out payment. So if you want kit, get your name on the lists. If you want to discuss anything e.g design or shorts, please put it on a different topic as I want to keep this one free of confusing clutter and purely a list of who wants what.
Insert names here:

I want kit:

I want shorts:

Desires for a swish new wardrobe

Posted by Mike on 25/02/13 at 12:30:27

Hey everyone wasn't quite sure where to put this topic so here seemed like the best place!

As an avid fashionista looking swish (or as these youths would refer to it, 'fly') is at the forefront of all I do. Nothing looks as dashing as new frisbee kit. At the AGM it was discussed whether we wanted new kit or the same kit and order some pieces for newbies (at the moment our esteemed Captain Phil lacks any genuine identity on the back of a Kent top when he plays!). Lets get the ball rolling- our we happy with the kit we currently have (in which case can we look into ordering a few new pieces for us newcomers please?) or do we want to think about a kit change (as much as I can imagine how SWEET a sublimated horse could look I appreciate this would be expensive for people already with kit and money concerns were mentioned at the AGM)?

And whilst the ball is rolling: Kent hoodies? Kent shorts? Lets get some crazy desires out there!

So in summary, current kit- deal or no deal?

Shorts

Posted by phil b on 29/04/13 at 10:35:07

Quick topic about shorts. If you want them, then get your name on the list. This page is for talk about design and anything that you want to discuss. Do people want a simple design, i.e just a simple block colour or do people want a full design carried on from the shirt. Please discuss your ideas here. Again this needs to have a deadline so this needs to be decided by the 5th of May so we can sort out an order.
I am more then happy to have a block colour design, maybe with a number on one of the legs but if people want a more complicated design then I am happy to go along with it.
Get your opinions and ideas down on here!

Help y'boy help others...

Howdy y'all,

Kate and y'boy are doing the three peak challenge (climb Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowden in 24hrs) on our wedding anniversary next weekend, in aid of Cancer Research, a charity close to our hearts at the moment. I know y'all are as poor as we are but if you can afford to give a few quid, we'd be super grateful.

Thanks,

TOUR!!!

Posted by phil b on 28/03/13 at 19:20:23

First of all I'd like to apologise for my absence from the forum for the past few weeks. I've had a very hectic schedule so I had to put writing messages on a bit of a back burner.
Down to business, Tour!!
I'm sure you all know tour is approaching, it's not really a secret. I just want to put the word out, I want Kent to take tour by the horns and hump it into submission! Lets rock up at tour and shock the crap out of all those chumps that think Kent Ultimate is a joke. They wont know what's hit them when we spank them 15-0. I got big plans. I don't know about you guys, but personally I think we can make our way into B tour. Tour 1- Smash C tour, promotion. Tour 2- Firmly stake our claim over B tour, prove to everyone else that we deserve to be there. Tour 3- Hit the high ranks of B tour. My opinion, Top 8. I think this is definitely a goal that we can achieve.
Tour should be sick, especially with the performance at training. This is only going to get better the closer we get to summer. Trainings will mostly be centred around practice for tour, I think people who have attended that past few training sessions will agree that they have been hard but useful.
Tour 1 is on the 1st/2nd June near St Albans. This is very easy to get to. Tour 2 is on the 22nd/23rd June in Nottingham. Tour 3 is 13th/14th July in Cardiff. I know this is quite a distance but I think it will definitely be worth it to prove what we can do.
I'm well up for tour this summer and I hope you are aswell. I know Karlos has already got the ball rolling with Tour 1 but I want to spark some interest for tour 2 and 3 aswell to get some commitment going.
TOUR!!
Peace out

New Kit

Posted by Whippet on 09/03/13 at 16:33:45

Who fancies new kit? Who needs new kit?

Get your designs up here. Buzz has come up with something good on the 'swish new wardrobe' thread - check it out!

Cost is likely to be about £30-£40 per shirt. And shorts are likely to be about £20. So if you get the full works it's going to work out at about £80-£120 (depending on how much it costs to get them made up). But when you're looking coldly at the number Forty Pounds, for a shirt, think to yourself how many times you'll actually wear this. My shirt has been worn and washed pretty much once a week for the last six years. So £40 is easily a good price. Maybe we should start a thread called "here's what else I could do with forty quid" and I think you'll find it hard to find something of better value. You might spend forty quid on a cheap jumper, or a couple of T-shirts, or a big night at a pub, or dinner for two etc. So when you look at that, you probably can afford it ...

For some of you, you might fancy one if the design is right - for now, call that a 'yes'. Right now we need interest.

Whether we go for simpler shirts or more flashy sublimated shirts will depend on designs we get in.

You can choose THREE options from below:

If you can help with sorting these out, please let us know

Other new Kent Kit

Posted by Whippet on 09/03/13 at 16:38:07

We can brand any clothing item or accessory with the Kent logo. We just need enough interest. And we need a good logo design, which can be either embroidered or printed on shirts.

If you'd got any thoughts, drop them here. I've put a few ideas in the poll - but add some more below and we can start a new poll. My costs are approximate and off the top of my head - you could probably source cheaper.

Again, any work anyone else can contribute to sorting this out would be ideal

Kent Hoodie - want one? Design one...

Posted by Whippet on 09/03/13 at 16:17:10

If you fancy a new Kent Hoodie, sign up to the vote! I'm definitely up for one. Or maybe I fancy a training top?

I'm going to work on a design. Get your designs up here too - the best one will get chosen.

It would be good if we could get the Kent Logo somewhere in there and kent ultimate in 'magneto' font. But it's up to you. We'll probably go to a local printers for this one. Remember every new colour costs a bit more (but could be totally worth it if the design is awesome). We might want to find our own hoodies and get them printed. I'd be in favour of getting some slightly more expensive quality hoodies, with some nice thickness, in whatever colour you think - the massive thin red ones have been good but they could be nicer! Equally, we could put that same design on the front/back of a 'training top'. By that I mean a kind of tracksuit top for training in...
