FIFA Bans Scotland's Circular Match Details
Jun 20, 2026, by Chris
- FIFA Ban: FIFA has prohibited Scotland from using their unique circular match details on their jerseys for the 2026 World Cup.
- Reason for Prohibition: The ban is due to strict FIFA equipment regulations that require a standard horizontal text format for match details.
- Required Format Change: As a result of the ban, Scotland's national team must now adopt a traditional, straight-line text placement on the chest for match information.
Scotland have not been allowed to use their unique curved match in the 2026 World Cup. FIFA regulations have prohibited the circular text design, forcing the Scottish national team to adopt a standard horizontal format.
