Jersey and sponsors
|
|
|
In 2011 the Warriors jerseys were again made by Canterbury of New Zealand. They retained their black and white home and away jerseys originally released in 2009. They will wear a special all-black jersey with silver ferns around the logo for the Eden Park match.[5] During the Heritage Round the Warriors wore a jersey based on the New Zealand Flag. Both special jerseys were worn again later in the season. The Junior Warriors have their own jersey in 2011, designed by Daryl John, who won a competition run by sponsors Vodafone and Canterbury of New Zealand to design a New Jersey for the team.[6] Vodafone New Zealand were again the naming rights sponsor of the Warriors in 2011. SKYCITY joined as a major sponsor for 2011, becoming the 'Home of the Vodafone Warriors'.[7] |
Fixtures
The Warriors opened the season by hosting the Parramatta Eels at Eden Park in Auckland. This was the first time that the Warriors played a home match away from Mount Smart Stadium.[8] The remaining 11 home games were played at Mount Smart Stadium, their only home ground since they entered the competition in 1995.
Pre-season training
The main squad returned to training on 15 November 2010 to start preparing for the 2011 season.[9] Players involved in the 2010 Four Nations and other representative matches returned to training later.
Pre-season matches
A fourth match was added to the Warriors schedule to raise money for the West Coast region after the Pike River Mine disaster. In a joint partnership with the NZRL, NRL and Newcastle Knights, all money raised was donated to the Pike River mining relief fund and the West Coast Rugby League.[10] The teams arrived early on 3 February to carry out community appearances in the region.[11]
The final trial match against the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles was also later made a fundraiser match, with North Harbour Stadium donating all profits of the match to the February 2011 Christchurch earthquake victims.[12][13]
