Mayo's Intersport Elverys helps Connacht Rugby reveal new home jersey

Connacht Rugby, in partnership with Macron Sports and Mayo firm Intersport Elverys, have revealed the new home jersey for the 2025/26 season.

This commemorative kit has been designed to mark a historic year for everyone associated with the club as Connacht Rugby celebrates its 140th anniversary this year, having formed on December 8, 1885.

It was on that day when six fledging clubs from Connacht came together after the first interprovincial match between Connacht and Leinster and set up the Connacht branch of the IRFU.

Now, 140 years later, more history will be made when the state-of-the-art North Stand at Dexcom Stadium will be completed during the season, following on from the opening of the Connacht High-Performance Centre over the summer.

With these momentous occasions in mind, this year’s jersey features an all-gold Connacht Rugby crest for the first time, with gold trimming across the jersey which has been designed in ‘forest green’.

The jersey will be worn for the first time on Sunday, August 10, when the Connacht women’s team take on Munster in the first round of the Vodafone IRFU Women’s Interprovincial Championship.

You can purchase the jersey from Friday, August 8, along with the full 2025/26 training wear and leisure wear, exclusively at www.elverys.ie and in your local Intersport Elverys store in Ballina, Castlebar, Claremorris or Westport.
