Bargate Announces New Partnership With Utilita Bowl And Hampshire Cricket
The partnership will run for over two years, strengthening Bargate’s presence within one of Hampshire’s most recognisable sporting destinations.
Hampshire Cricket has unveiled its new Training Kit, marking the start of a new era of elite performance wear and the Club’s first-ever kit launched in partnership with Official Kit Partner, Castore.
Designed to be worn where the work happens, the new training kit is built for intensity, movement and durability — supporting players through the unseen hours that underpin performance.
Elite training. Built for performance. Inspired by 25 years of excellence.
Worn daily by Hampshire Cricket’s men’s and women’s squads, the training kit has been developed to meet the demands of professional training environments — from high-intensity gym sessions to on-field drills.
The range focuses on performance-led design, combining comfort, flexibility and durability to support athletes through repeated training loads and varied conditions.

The launch of the training kit represents Hampshire Cricket’s first-ever kit introduced in partnership with Official Kit Partner, Castore.
Renowned for elite sportswear engineering, Castore brings its performance expertise to Hampshire Cricket as the Club enters its next chapter, delivering a training range designed to support modern professional sport.

Subtle design details within the kit reference 25 Years of the Bowl, with linear elements inspired by the wires that hold the Pavilion structure together - the iconic centrepiece of the venue since its opening in 2001.
Instantly familiar on the stadium skyline, the intersecting lines have been reinterpreted into a striking abstract pattern on the kit. The result is a design that feels contemporary while firmly rooted in Hampshire’s home.
Beyond their visual impact, the lines also carry deeper meaning. They represent stability, strength and connection - values that define Hampshire Cricket since its move to Utilita Bowl at the turn of the millennium.
While rich in symbolism, the kit remains firmly focused on performance. Modern in execution and purpose-built for the demands of elite training, it balances heritage with innovation, just as the club itself continues to evolve - a quiet statement of identity.
It celebrates a place that has become home, honours the foundations that provide strength, and looks confidently towards the future built upon them.
