Mayo GAA's new home jersey was unveiled today at Elverys McHale Park.

The new home jersey will be worn by Mayo's male and female footballers as well as the hurlers from January 2017.

This is the first new home jersey introduced by Mayo in two years and was designed and produced in consultation with the players.

The new home jersey also features the traditional Mayo red stripe as well as an embossed Mayo GAA crest on the lower back of the jersey.

Mayo footballers Keith Higgins, Andy Moran, Colm Boyle, Evan Regan as well as ladies' footballers Aileen Gilroy and Orla Conlon joined Manager Stephen Rochford and Intersport Elverys to reveal the new playing jersey.

Mayo GAA players will also be appearing in Intersport Elverys Stores in Castlebar and Ballina this Saturday 3rd December between 2-4 pm as part of the launch.

"There is a huge sense of pride in playing for Mayo and representing your community on the national stage," said manager Stephen Rochford. "The jersey is a hugely important symbol of that. It is to wear this jersey that players across the county put their lives on hold for 10 out of 12 months in every year, for the chance of playing and winning for Mayo. We are already looking forward to re-grouping and meeting the challenges that 2017 will bring."
