Whitehawk – Our Story
Since day one, sport has played a significant role our lives – a rich sporting history stemming back decades, ‘way back when’……Well, that’s where it all started for us!
Following around our folks, whom now it seems that we owe a lot to – after all, they did introduce us to one of the greatest things on planet earth – sport!
On one side – a story of crisp nights in basketball stadiums watching Dad play well above his 5’10 stature, with an occasional foul-out – followed up by traditional evenings in the shed listening to tales of the local squad comparing themselves to Jordan. Days spent walking the golf course, a balance of green in regulation, shouts of ‘fore’ and ‘uneven’ greens (Perhaps a little harsh given Dad’s handicap of <8).
Local footy - ½ time and ¾ time speeches, remembering players by the colour of their boots and calling by local cricket grounds only to listen to Dad retell the story of his high-school 7fa for the lost count time in a row. If there was local sport to attend, it was likely you’d see us there!
On the other hand – the story goes a touch different! Heading down to Junior Soccer Weekends to take in all the plays, and coaching spiels – then in transit to Senior Soccer Matchday’s, it started out as watching Dad and brothers playing, then it was Coaching. Mum played her part too – an influential member of an inaugural community women’s soccer team, and badminton extraordinaire.
The secret is out, and you would’ve guessed by now – we lived and breathed sports as kids, it was no different through our teens and it’s no different now.
Then it was our turn………
From the backyard competitiveness with our brothers, sisters, uncles, and aunts, to the countless hours of travelling in the car with our parents to gamedays, squad trainings and the likes.
Kicking the frosty crunch off the grass at junior soccer mornings, eagerly awaiting a pre-game downpour to play some wet weather footy and trying to bowl side-spinners at local junior cricket carnivals – not to mention the casual attempts at anything, and everything else sports related, we left no stone unturned.
Community sport, through to Tasmanian and Australian representation, on grounds situated in Aussie regional and city-based municipalities, to the greens in the UK and the fields of China and Dubai – experiences and relationships that have ultimately led us on our journey so far.
And when one door closes, another must open – here we are now!
Throughout all of those experiences and in all the time that has past – one thing is for sure, we’ve certainly seen, worn, torn and collected our fair share of teamwear and apparel!
We’re well versed, with a wide knowledge base to ensure adequate processes, best quality and service you deserve.
Whilst our on-field moments and stories are to be shared further down the track, the commencement of a new generation has just hit the fields, our four children and their peers being introduced to the greatest thing on planet earth – sport!
That’s our journey to date, now come with us and share the new way of life in custom teamwear with Whitehawk Apparel.
