In 2019, Wests Tigers opened a jersey design competition for all NRL School to Work participants to design the club's 2020 Indigenous Jersey. The NRL School to Work program is an education and employment program that utilises the positive profile of rugby league to support young Indigenous Australians with work experience, mentoring and leadership opportunities to ensure they successfully complete school and transition into further study, training or meaningful employment.
Round 12 will see all NRL clubs celebrate Indigenous Round, with Wests Tigers planning a number of game day and mid-week initiatives for the round.
Limited stock of the club's official 2020 Indigenous jersey is available, with Wests Tigers Members encouraged to make the most of their exclusive 24-hour sale window that runs from 7:00pm AEST on Wednesday, July 1. Wests Tigers Members will receive an email with the link to purchase the jersey.
Following that exclusive window, the jersey will be then available for sale for the general public at 7:00pm AEST on Thursday, July 2.
