European and international competition badges

What is a competition badge?

A competition badge is an official patch that is placed on the sleeve or chest of a jersey to indicate the competition it is associated with. It complements a name and number print and reproduces the badges found on player jerseys worn in the Champions League, Europa League, Nations League, or during a Club World Cup. On this page, all the badges offered are from the brand Sporting ID, a specialist in official marking.

Which competitions are available as badges?

The selection covers several European and international competitions, each with its own designs. Notably, it includes the Champions League badges, available in several versions depending on the position or edition, the Europa League badge, as well as the Nations League badges, with some models dedicated to a recent edition placed on the sleeve and others on the chest. A badge related to the Club World Cup is also included in the Marking selection.

As the exact name of a badge sometimes includes a specific edition or competition, take the time to read the product sheet to ensure it corresponds to the competition and season you are looking for before pairing it with your jersey.

How is a competition badge applied to a jersey?

A competition badge is applied using heat transfer or print, just like a name and number, from the Marking range on the site. It usually complements an official print already done on the jersey at the location reserved by the manufacturer (sleeve or chest depending on the competition and jersey model). The brand Sporting ID manufactures these badges to the same standards as those worn on official jerseys.

By league or by team: other pages for official prints

If you are looking for a print rather than a competition badge, several pages of the site allow you to filter by league or national team:

• The Ligue 1 prints for clubs in the French league.
• The Premier League prints for English clubs.
• The Liga prints for Spanish clubs.
• The Bundesliga prints for German clubs.
• The Serie A prints for Italian clubs.
• The National teams prints for national selection jerseys.

To return to all customization options, the Official Prints page groups all the markings offered on the site.

When to find the best deals on competition badges?

Competition badges follow the same commercial calendar as the rest of the catalogue. The nearest major event is typically Black Friday, followed by the end-of-year holidays, and then the winter sales which you can find on the Sales page. In spring, keep an eye out for French Days, and outside these periods, the Good Deals page gathers ongoing promotions.

To spot the models that have just been added to the catalogue, the New Arrivals page is updated regularly. If you want to receive your order quickly, the Shipped in 24h selection indicates items available immediately, and the Special Offers page collects occasional discounts outside of sale periods.

Frequently asked questions

Can a competition badge be applied to any jersey?

A badge is generally applied to a plain or already printed jersey, at the location intended for this type of marking (sleeve or chest depending on the jersey model). Some supporter version jerseys do not have a designated space as clearly marked as on a player jersey, but the badge can still be applied there using heat transfer.

How to know if a badge corresponds to the right edition of a competition?

The name of the product indicates the competition and, where applicable, the relevant edition or season. It is important to read the product sheet carefully before ordering, as two badges from the same competition may correspond to different seasons.

Is it necessary to order the name and number print at the same time as the badge?

It is not mandatory, both markings can be ordered separately. However, many customers choose to pair a competition badge with a name and number print to replicate the complete appearance of a match-worn jersey.

Does a competition badge damage the jersey upon removal?

A heat-applied badge is designed to stay in place permanently once applied correctly; it is not intended to be removed and reapplied. If you're unsure about the desired placement, it's better to check the product sheet or get advice before application.

Can multiple badges be associated with the same jersey?

Yes, some jerseys carry a championship badge, a European competition badge, and a badge related to a won title at the same time. However, it is important to check that the jersey has enough suitable spaces before layering multiple badges.
