Reading, PA – The Reading Royals have unveiled a new purple-based sweater for the 2019-20 season, available to order at http://bit.ly/RLionJerseys or by calling 610-898-7262.

Athletic Knit designed the jerseys and they will be worn at the Royals’ home opener Sat., Oct. 19 at 7:00 p.m. vs. Maine. Boscov’s will have a patch on both the front and back of the sweaters.

“The color scheme is sleek and defines our goal to Restore The Roar at Santander Arena this season,” said General Manager David Farrar. “The use of our crowned ‘R’ logo on the front of the chest is bold and represents ‘R’ City perfectly.”

The jersey also prominently features the Royals’ NHL parent club, the Philadelphia Flyers, on the right shoulder and Reading’s AHL affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, on the left shoulder.

The purple look joins the Royals’ white-based jersey. Both are available at the online team store or by visiting the Lion’s Den Team Store at Santander Arena (corner of 8th and Penn).
