The Grizzlies are proud to announce that after having an open vote on the jersey selection for the 2012 season that the white jersey was the overwhelming choice to be the official away jersey by a 3 to 1 margin. The jerseys are on order and we will be accepting separate orders for parents to order their own official game jerseys at a later date including the last two registrations. Feel free to contact Mike Curran for more information. We will only process one order for these as they take 5 weeks to produce and are custom jerseys. Cutoff date will be June 30th for adult orders.
