One rec league I do has players who have attended tryout camps. It's not unusual for them to wear their jerseys from those camps. Sometimes you have number 97 foul number 126.

That's fun.

In the rec league for which I am on the Board, we require the kids to wear all "legal" numbers and have the numbers on front and back. Of course, we order all the jerseys ourselves. In the past three years, we have gone to reversible jerseys, even though they cost a little more. Prior to that, we used T-shirts. When you have 12 teams in the same grade division, you run out of usable T-shirt colors really fast. For years, I had to do games with Navy Blue vs. Black, or White vs. Light Gray. Of course, none of the boys teams wanted Pink.

One year, we used "pinneys" with numbers if the shirt colors were too close, but the kids really didn't like them and kept getting tangled up in them.

Here's a question for OZ - in FEEBLE, do you use metric jersey numbers?
