All AFF National tournaments have podium presentations (medal ceremonies). All athletes are expected to present themselves appropriately for these presentations and respect the importance of winning a medal at a National sporting event.
Unacceptable presentation attire includes Club tracksuits at National events, Australian Fencing Team uniforms, Olympic track suits, or generic tracksuits. Any exceptions (including those where an athlete wishes to wear a sponsor's promotional attire) must first be discussed with the Directoire Technique, who must have given their explicit permission prior to the presentation ceremony.
