Memphis RiverKings to Unveil New Alternate Jersey

SOUTHAVEN, Miss.—The RiverKings’ alternate jersey will be unveiled at its Wednesday, Dec. 31st New Year’s Eve game against the Indianapolis Ice at a special 6:05 p.m. start.

This jersey features a new logo set against a clean, smooth, New-Millennium look. There’s a new monogram on the shoulder that is a spin-off of the logo of the RiverKings’ parent company, the Toronto Maple Leafs.

“The main logo is a new take on the traditional turtle logo,” Director of Community Relations Michael Rice said. “The turtle is showing even more fierceness. The fans should really like it.”

The jersey will be worn for the team’s next seven home games and then intermittently throughout the rest of the season. Replicas of the new alternate jersey will be available at the merchandise stand at Wednesday’s game.

There will be no jersey auction on New Year’s Eve, breaking a two-year RiverKings tradition. The next special jersey auction will be Jan. 23, which is NASCAR night with the RiverKings. The ‘Kings will be wearing commemorative racing jerseys.
