Sydney: Australian athletes have unveiled their Olympic team uniforms and are starting to fine-tune their preparations for the delayed Tokyo Games.
Olympic champion Charlotte Caslick was one of ten Australian athletes who posed for photos in their green and gold competition kits at the uniform launch in front of the iconic Sydney Opera House.
Team leaders said having the kit makes the games seem more real for athletes who've already had to wait an extra 12 months to compete after the Tokyo Olympics were postponed to 2021 during the coronavirus pandemic.
The headline news around the Tokyo Olympics recently has focused on concerns about the spread of the virus, bans on foreign ticket holders and the so-called bubble that athletes and officials will have to live with and within during the games.
Up to 480 Australian athletes also will likely to have to quarantine after returning on charter flights from Tokyo.
