Club Colours

[chrisecurtis]

Is there a list anywhere or is it not that organised?
I was looking at some photos on compasssport and you almost have to hope that there is one where you can see the writing on the shirt before you can work out who is running for whom.

I'd be impressed if anyone has made a useful list - not only are some of the designs too complex to describe verbally, but most clubs will have changed them at some point in their history, some many times. (I have five different designs of CUOC O-top )

Not only that, but you'll also see international tops, squad tops, tour tops, Ultrasport-bargain-bin tops, and various clothes that aren't O-tops at all...

you'll just have to wait and see how many come out of the catching features kit collection, i'm sure the results of it could be modified into a quick checksheet.

I'd like to propose a male ex-SOS, now WAOC member, for the most torn pair of O trousers still in use - green SOS ones. You'll be relieved to know that no photo is available.

Somewhere on a scrap of paper im sure we have the list at home, designing a kit we didnt want to be a lame ass imitation of another kit (EBORE - Sweden, MAROC - SARUM, EUOC - Macedonia)...

what does that mean?

I spoke to BOF about this a few months ago, thinking that there might be a requirement to register club colours with them and they told me there isn't, unlike the British Cycling Federation for example, who do require colours to be registered to avoid any clashes.

The result is that I keep seeing this girl in what I is a very very close copy of my club's colours, only to notice that it says Laggnalia Tour on it

Since no-one wears our club top anyway, it probably doesn't matter

[rob f]

why doesn't everyone say their kit so we can get a list
Harlequins - any colour you can think of thats bright

[chrisecurtis]

PorkyFatBoy has it. People only wear club colours for a dare, so what does it matter!

only if they look like jobby

[mharky]

brooners right, people dont wear them becouse they are jobbie... if they are good then you weear them. clubs dont mean as much for people in britain as they do in other countries. even in bulgaria the club pays for its elite mens and womens relay teams. but here you have to pay to be in the club, then pay to run for the club, and pay to get the club it. The only thing keeping me in a British Club is the fast that I have to to go to JWOC. (and hence me choosing simply the best club in the UK... steam on!!!!)
