Bundesliga Teams to Sport Sleeve Badge in Support of Refugees
Sep 16, 2015, by Pat
All 36 teams participating in Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 matches next weekend will sport a special logo on the left sleeve in support of the integration of refugees.
Bundesliga Kits to Feature "Wir helfen - #refugeeswelcome" Logo
The refugee-supporting logo is seen on the left sleeve of the Bayern Munich shirt.
Commercial sponsor Hermes will clear its space on the left sleeve for the round of matches between September 18 and 20, with the logo of the "Wir helfen" (we help) campaign by the Bild newspaper worn instead.
Additionally, all clubs from the two leagues will continue supporting refugees in various ways, including the "Welcome to Football" program. Supported by the Bundesliga foundation, "Welcome to Football" is a nationwide integration program which aims to bring together locals and refugees through football. Read more about it here.

Nigeria Women Update Crest With 10 Stars
At the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON), defending champions Nigeria featured a special detail on their shirts: 10 stars added above their crest. The "Super Falcons" had never worn stars on their kits in previous WAFCONs.
The 10 stars represent Nigeria's 10 continental titles, celebrating their history as the most dominant team in African women's football. Big thanks to our Vietnamese partner @jerseystory_vn for the collage image.
