During Saturday’s game against Surrey 89ers, it was brought to our attention that our team’s jersey colours caused difficulty for spectators with colour blindness in distinguishing between us and our opponents.

While we still await the arrival of our official “Black Edition” jersey, the Club has decided to wear our temporary black kit for Wednesday’s game against Surrey 89ers and any future fixtures where our red jersey could result in a kit clash for those with colour vision deficiency.

Leicester Riders are committed to making our games accessible and enjoyable for all. We will continue to work diligently to ensure that our games are inclusive and accommodating for everyone.
