Bluebirds Fans Forum / Names on shirts

**Posted by Charlie Bird** 29/10/2024 9:34 PM

Most teams in our league have players’ names on the back of the shirts. Listening to the Bath City commentary tonight the commentators stated that Bath now have their names on their shirts as it is now a league regulation. Anyone know if that really is the case?

Only if they have squad numbers I think?

You could argue on that basis that it isn't doing you much good not having them either.

Apparently its only in the National League that players must have names on their shirts. In NLN and NLS its optional, the only regulation is for squad numbers to be clearly displayed.
