Instructions

If you can, print enough copies of the ‘Football shirt template’ for everyone. It’s best to have a few spares too, just in case. You could also print one or two onto card for people to draw around. Don’t worry if you don’t have access to a printer – just draw the template on blank paper to draw your own shirt.

Get creative
Everyone should decide whether they’ll create a shirt for a real or imaginary football team. They could create a shirt for Manchester United’s 2020/2021 season, for example, or invent their own football team.

Everyone should choose the main colours for their football shirt. The colours on football teams’ home kits make them instantly recognisable, so people should try to pick eye-catching colours that stand out across stadiums and on TV. They should use their colours throughout their design.

Manchester United are famous for their red shirts. The designs change a little bit each year, but their block red means they’re one of the most recognisable teams all over the world. You can find out more about the changes to Manchester United’s home kit here.

Everyone should design a crest and draw it on the front of their shirt. Crests are teams’ coats of arms. Historically, they were worn on kits to pay tribute to this history of the town or city and its industries or landmarks.

Everyone should finish off by colouring in any gaps. What colours will they use as the background? Will it be a plain colour, or have a pattern (for example, stripes)?
Now’s also a good time to add in anything that makes their design unique.

send in your design via the parent portal or the group/leader email address as required.
