Jersey and Sponsors

Home jersey

In 2010 the Panthers jerseys were again made by ISC. They retained their predominantly black home jerseys from 2009, while revealing a new teal and white away strip. The new away strip was designed featuring performance technology and weighed less than half of the previous away design.

Sanyo were again the major sponsor of the Panthers in 2010. Titan Warehousing Solutions replaced ABCOE Distributors as the sleeve sponsor. HOSTPLUS secured the shorts sponsorship while Tony Ferguson retained the rights for the back of the jersey.

The Panthers once again participated in the heritage round, sporting a retro strip. This jersey featured a white V on a predominately brown background, paired with white shorts.

Fixtures

The Panthers again used CUA Stadium as their home ground in 2010, their home ground since they entered the competition in 1967.

Pre-season

The main squad returned to training on 5 November 2009 to start preparing for the 2010 season. Players involved in the 2009 Four Nations and 2009 Pacific Cup returned to training later.
