Colours and Emblem
Like many other teams from the Illawarra region, the Wolves play in red and white. These colours are taken from the local floral emblem – the Illawarra Flametree – which is used by representative teams and sporting associations throughout the area. During recent seasons, this arrangement was inverted, with Wolves playing in white shirts, with red shorts and socks. Season 2012 sees the return of an all-red kit, with a white chevron across the chest.
Since their transformation into a community run-club, Wolves have always worn an alternate kit of yellow and blue, drawing inspiration from the local beaches and the sea. However, Wolves have switched to an all-black away kit for the 2012 season, which – like the home shirt – is highlighted by a yellow chevron.
Both kits – as well as other team apparel – is supplied by local brand Dixon Sportswear, under the moniker #10 Teamwear.

Famous quotes containing the words colours and, colours and/or emblem:
“I should need
Colours and words that are unknown to man,
To paint the visionary dreariness”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
“The sounding cataract
Haunted me like a passion: the tall rock,
The mountain, and the deep and gloomy wood,
Their colours and their forms, were then to me
An appetite: a feeling and a love,
That had no need of a remoter charm,
By thought supplied, or any interest
Unborrowed from the eye.—”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
“Talking in bed ought to be easiest,
Lying together there goes back so far,
An emblem of two people being honest.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
