The home kit for the 2016-17 season sees a return to a more modest design as kit suppliers Kooga Rugby continue to capture the essence of the traditional deep Scarlet red that was first worn by the Llanelli RFC side back in 1884.

Newcomers Rhys Patchell, Werner Kruger, Jonathan Evans, Rynier Bernardo, Tadhg Beirne and Richard Smith were all welcomed to the region at a special showing for sponsors and fans and the club also welcomed back internationals Jake Ball, Aled Davies, Gareth Davies, Rob Evans, Samson Lee, Liam Williams, Scott Williams and John Barclay.

“The launch of the new kit is a milestone in our seasonal calendar and we are delighted to have been able to welcome sponsors, partners and supporters alike to what has been a showcase event at Parc y Scarlets,” said Darran Phillips, Scarlets Chief Executive Officer.

“We’re delighted to have the continued support of a renowned and respected global partner in BT which recognises the importance of rugby to Welsh culture and the rich heritage associated with the Scarlets. A return to a more traditionally designed home jersey links us back to our long-standing heritage and echoes our traditional values.”
