Northumbria Sport announce new sport kit supplier

Northumbria University Sport are proud to announce PlayerLayer as their new kit supplier.

Having signed a five-year partnership, PlayerLayer will be providing Northumbria with team and leisurewear which will be worn by students and staff from September 2025.

Northumbria are delighted to be working with PlayerLayer who have been in business for 17 years and specialise in providing university apparel, providing students with great quality kit to help them perform whilst competing.

Head of Sport, Daryl Dixon said: “It’s great to be in partnership with a supplier who specialises in university team wear, and we are excited to see our students wear this kit to represent Northumbria over the next 5 years.”

Work has already begun on the designs of our new kit with both students and staff being involved and their feedback has been resoundingly positive.  

PlayerLayer Founder, Roderick Bradley said: “The passion and love for sport displayed by Northumbria students is contagious and we cannot wait to launch the full range of kit, we hope we can help all athletes, coaches and staff feel that they belong!”

All Northumbria students will be able to benefit from this partnership, as there will be a dedicated Northumbria online store for them to purchase branded Northumbria leisurewear. This will launch in September 2025.
