At the past two International Cups, the Irish national side wore a green jumper, recognising both the players' Irish nationality (harp) and football's Australian origin (Southern Cross). The Australian Rules Football League of Ireland (ARFLI) has decided that the team will wear a different design at next year’s Cup however, and has called for public input on this design. Everyone is welcome to submit their proposed jumper, with the best submissions to appear on the ARFLI website. The public will then be asked to vote for their favourite home and away versions, with the most popular to be adopted by the Warriors. Submissions close on January 18 2008 and should be sent to jenright at interactiveservices.com

Winning designers will be presented with the jumper they designed, signed by the team and framed for posterity.

More information is available from the ARFLI website.
