Mar 26, 2022, by Chris
If you watched England vs Switzerland this evening, you might have wondered why England did not have names on the shirts in the second half. Let us find out why.
England Team Play Without Names at Wembley to Highlight How People With Dementia Lose Vital Memories
England team played without names at Wembley to highlight how people with dementia lose vital memories. This is part of the team's new partnership with the Alzheimer’s Society.
The squad came onto the pitch after halftime sporting nameless shirts to draw attention to how people with dementia lose precious memories, even the names of their favorite football players.
The gesture is in recognition of the 900,000 people living with dementia, who could fill Wembley stadium ten times over.
Kate Lee, CEO at Alzheimer’s Society: “As the squad walk out in these thought-provoking shirts, we hope it will get fans up and down the country to sit up and take note of the reality of living with dementia. Football should be unforgettable - I hope it makes a massive impact that ripples from the Royal Box to the stands and into homes across the nation, inspiring people to support our work to raise awareness and reduce stigma and help us make sure no-one faces dementia alone.”
The shirts are auctioned to raise crucial funds for Alzheimer’s Society’s work.
The FA's partnership with the leading dementia charity will be in place for the next two seasons.

Concept: What If World Cup Winners Wore Special Badges on Club Kits?
A creative concept visualized by Bleacher Report has sparked discussion among kit enthusiasts, posing an intriguing question: what if players who have won the FIFA World Cup were allowed to wear a special champion badge on their club kits? Under current FIFA equipment regulations, only reigning national team champions and Club World Cup winners are permitted to sport the official FIFA Champions Badge, but bringing an individual achievement patch to the club stage introduces a bold twist to modern shirt details.
The mockups feature World Cup winners wearing a sleek, gold trophy silhouette on their kit sleeves stamped with the year of their international triumph. The concept envisions players like Lionel Messi donning a 2022 patch on his Inter Miami shirt, Kylian Mbappé carrying a 2018 badge in Real Madrid white, and Rodri sporting a 2026 mark. It serves as an immediate visual marker of football's ultimate honor, staying with the player regardless of their club transfers.
In reality, domestic leagues and confederations enforce strict uniform guidelines that limit sleeve real estate almost entirely to league badges, sleeve sponsors, and charitable campaign logos. While regulatory hurdles make such a badge virtually impossible in professional football, the visualization offers a clean and compelling look at how personal legacy could be integrated into club kits.

The centerpiece of the design is a prominent black horizontal chest band accented by a thin 'Blue Spark' lower stripe.
