FYI: Tonga and the fans
Just so you understand and don’t say Red is better.
🇹🇴 1. To avoid a colour clash
Tonga's traditional rugby jersey is red with white details, representing the country's national colours.
If Tonga play against another team whose jersey is also red or has similar colours, the two teams could be difficult to tell apart. Having an alternative kit helps solve this problem.
🔴 Home kit: Usually predominantly red, reflecting Tonga's traditional colours.
⚪ Away kit: Uses a different colour scheme, often white, to create a clear contrast with the opposition.
🏉 2. World Rugby rules and colour blindness
There is another important reason. Since 1 January 2025, World Rugby's kit-colour policy has required teams at its events to avoid certain colour combinations that could be difficult for colour-blind people to distinguish
Malo ‘ofa pe ‘oku mahino atu 💯❤️🇹🇴
