# Soccer Jersey Requirements

## You need jerseys/shirts of the same color with a permanent number

- All Players (except the goalie) must have a PERMANENT # on the back of their shirt/jersey. Players without #s will not be allowed to play!  
    - Permanent means NO TAPE and NO Sharpie/Marker!
    - Numbers must be screen-printed or ironed on (should be clearly visible from a distance).
    - Numbered Pinnies or pinnies that allow the jersey # to be clearly visible are permitted if your team has to wear an alternate color.
- There will be a pre-game check-in for all players, where jersey numbers will be validated against the roster. Any guest players must present a government-issued photo ID.
- All players must wear the same jersey number all season, this number must match the number in the referees system. Guest players must have their own number.
- Shin guards are mandatory for all soccer leagues, and no player will be permitted to play without proper equipment.
