club colours, club name

Rule 9.

(A) Every Club must register the colour of its shirts and shorts with the Treasurer by 30th June who shall decide as to their suitability.

Goalkeepers must wear colours, which distinguish them from other players and the referee.

No player, including the goalkeeper, shall be permitted to wear black or very dark shirts or replica kit.

Player’s names will not be allowed on their playing kit.

Any team not being able to play in its normal colours as registered with the Competition shall notify the colours in which they will play to its opponents at least 5 days before the match.

If, in the opinion of the referee, two Clubs have the same or similar colours, the away team shall make the change. Any team not having a change of colours or delaying the kick-off by not having a change shall be fined £10.

The Secretary of the Competition may request shirts to be submitted if complaints are received as to lack of distinguishing colours, and the Management Committee may refuse to permit any shirts or shorts as they think fit.

The player’s shirts must be clearly numbered.

(B) Any Club wishing to change its name, sponsorship and/or colours must obtain permission from its affiliated County Association and from the Management Committee.
