compliance with the above provisions.

team’s first-choice and second-choice outfield player attires, to the extent that
they could be worn by opposing teams in a match.
9.02 If one playing attire comprises predominantly dark colours, the other must
comprise predominantly light colours, or if one of the playing attires is hooped,
banded, striped or checked, the other must not contain either of the colours of
the hoops/bands/stripes/checks.
9.03 Teams must have at least two goalkeeper attires which clearly contrast with each
other and with the first-choice and second-choice outfield player attires.

a visible contrast with the other team.

9.05 The order of priority for the selection of colours for a match is as follows:
a. home team outfield player attire;
b. away team outfield player attire;
c. home team goalkeeper attire;
d. away team goalkeeper attire;
e. referee team attire.
However if there is a clash for one of the above participants that cannot be
resolved (i.e. none of the approved attires offer the required level of colour
contrast) then other participants may have to change (in reverse order) until a
suitable contrast can be found.
9.06 If the referee decides on the spot that the two teams’ selected colours could lead
to confusion, the home team must change playing attire, for practical reasons.
9.07 For a final, both teams should wear their first-choice outfield player attire. If this
would create a colour clash, the designated away team must wear its second-
choice (or other approved alternative) outfield player attire. If that too would
create a colour clash, the UEFA administration decides on the playing attire to be
worn by each team in consultation with the referee.

used, no number higher than 99 may be used and the number 1 may only be

XVI – Measurement procedures
Article 52 Measurement of identifications and representations
52.01 All items incorporated into equipment are measured in the smallest possible
geometric form (square, rectangle, triangle, circle etc.) and their dimensions
calculated using the usual mathematical formula.
52.02 To calculate the surface area, the widest part of the item is measured from edge
to edge. Exceptionally, items may be divided into several individual geometric
forms for the purpose of calculating the surface area.
52.03 Manufacturers may submit specific proposals as to how to measure specific items
submitted to the UEFA administration.
52.04 Manufacturer design marks and product line identifications are measured as
individual geometric forms when the distance between the various elements does
not exceed 0.5cm.
52.05 Player numbers and names are measured without including any shadow outlines,
3D effects or contrasting key lines.
52.06 One of the following surface areas, whichever is the larger, is used for measuring
sponsor advertising:
a. The surface of a single-coloured patch used for sponsor advertising if the
patch is not the same colour as the underlying shirt colour.
b. The surface of the sponsor advertising used if the advertising is printed
directly on the shirt, or on a patch of the same colour as the underlying shirt
colour (if two main shirt colours are used, patches used for sponsor
advertising may be either of the two shirt colours and only the sponsor
advertising itself will be measured for approval). This is measured as several
individual geometric forms when made up of more than one separable line of
text or consisting of a logo and text separately, however the distance between
the various elements must not exceed 5cm.
52.07 On shirts with chest rings (as a minimum from seam to seam across the front of
the shirt), the surface of the sponsor advertising is measured and not the chest
ring.
52.08 The following diagrams and related descriptions provide examples of the
measurement procedure:
a. Manufacturer design mark
i. The Nike logo size is calculated using the formula: "a" x "b"
ii. The Puma logo size is calculated using the formula: ("c" + "d")/2 x "h"
62 XVI – Measurement procedures

b. Manufacturer composite mark

i. The total size is calculated by adding the size of the two separate areas
measured as follows:
– The word mark size which is calculated using the formula: "a" x "b"
– The design mark size which is calculated using the formula: "b" x "d"
ii. The distance between the design mark and the word mark in a composite
mark may not exceed 0.5cm (otherwise they will be considered as two
separate identifications)

shirt colours
i. The size of a single item of sponsor advertising is calculated using the
formula: "a" x "b"

ii. The size of sponsor advertising containing more than one item is
measured by adding together the size of the two separate areas, measured
as follows:
– Two words calculated as ("a" x "b") + ("c" x "d")
– Word and logo calculated as ("a" x "b") + (area of the circle "c")
– The distance ("d") between the word and the logo may not exceed 5cm

Article 53 Measurement of colour contrast

53.01 The UEFA administration measures the contrast of colours used on playing attire
using a spectrophotometer to provide an objective means of decision-making.
53.02 Measurements are taken using a spherical spectrophotometer with an aperture of
6.6mm and a measurement area of 4mm on a white-point of D65 and a Standard
Observers Angle of 10°. A spectrally neutral 18% Reflectance Grey Card is placed
under the single layer of fabric to be measured, and each final measurement is
calculated from the average of three readings, at 0°, 90° and 45°.
53.03 The contrast between shirt colours in the number zone must be less than or equal
to a Delta L of 25. Colour combinations with a Delta L difference value greater
than 25 require a single-colour patch on the back of the shirt to serve as the
number zone.
53.04 Player numbers must contrast with the background colour(s) in the number zone
by a Delta L value equal to or higher than 30.
53.05 Tonal prints must be included in a tonal variation of the (background) colour(s) of
the item of playing attire into which they are incorporated, with a contrast that is
less than or equal to a Delta L value of 10. Background colours are measured
before the associated tonal print.
53.06 Jacquard weave thread must be included in a thread that must be the same
colour as the fabric into which it is woven. The jacquard weave must not
dominate, contain a colour that contrasts with, or otherwise affect the
distinctiveness of the item of playing attire into which it is incorporated. When
measured, the contrast between the two weaves must be less than or equal to a
Delta L value of 5. Background colours are measured before the associated
jacquard weave thread.
