Hey good folk of NSC!

I've landed my first wrestling referee gig (I know, I know) and I'm in desperate need of a black and white striped ref shirt. Does anyone know where I might be able to get one in the Brighton and Hove area?

Thanks y'all!

Ps I need it for tomorrow!

How do you even get into being a wrestling referee?

There are a fair few British independent wrestling companies that hold various training from wrestling, being a wrestling manager, referee etc. I started out just over a year ago by supporting my daughter who wanted to give it a go. I had a fair few wrestling training sessions but realised my old ass body just can't take it. That's when I decided to give refereeing a go!

If you know anyone who plays roller derby, their refs all wear tops like that but (a) will probably be reffing over the weekend in them anyway, and (b) all have their names on the back.

Otherwise, only other non-online suggestions would be (a) buy a Newcastle United shirt from Sports Direct, (b) mug a Foot Locker employee and steal theirs, or (c) white shirt plus black fabric paint and make your own.

Can't you just buy a Newcastle shirt instead?
