Uniforms:

If you are a new player or a returning player that requires a uniform kit (jersey and shorts) you can order via the VETO Store

Orders will need to be placed so that you receive your uniforms ready for your player to take the court commencing 2nd February 2026. The following options are available in order to receive your kit 

  • You can pay for your order to be posted directly to you 

  • Free pick up from Acacia Ridge during Veto’s office hours
