Dig out your jersey! Wednesday, November 18, 2026, is National Jersey Day, and NT School Sports is joining School Sport Canada in celebrating school sport across the country.

We’re inviting students, school staff, families, and community members across the Northwest Territories to wear a sport jersey to school, to work, or wherever the day takes them. Wear your school colours, pull out an old team jersey, or put on the jersey of a team you love to cheer for.

It’s also a chance to thank the people who make school sport happen. Think of the teacher who opens the gym for practice, the student who keeps score, the coach who helps someone try a new skill, and the families who cheer from the stands. They all help give students a place to play and be part of a team.

Invite your class, school, or workplace to join in. If you share a photo, tag NT School Sports and use #SchoolSportJerseyDay so we can see the jerseys people are wearing across the NWT.
