If you are a playing member in good standing with KOMC, you should have these items in your uniform kit.

If you need something from this list, PLEASE check with Pam Rossi or Pam Brownlee BEFORE you order anything. They are our Uniform Committee (UC). They will get it for you, or they will tell you where to buy it for the best price.

THEY KNOW WHO HAS GOOD PRODUCTS FOR A FAIR PRICE. They know a lot of other stuff, too!!!

This applies to EVERYTHING on this list - Please check with Pam(s) first and save everyone some trouble.

The official uniform(s) consists of:
 

 Shirt
      - Black military shirt - get your size to Pam Rossi today so she can place the order this week.
