Free Soccer Jersey Templates: Two Printable Coloring Pages

Print your two free jersey templates

The first sample is a plain round-neck shirt with an open front. The second has a wide horizontal chest stripe. Try the same pair of colors on both templates: one can become the home shirt and the other the away shirt, without copying an existing club.

The two-page PDF uses US Letter paper. Select fit-to-page when printing on A4 so the complete outline and margins remain visible. Both are actual interior pages, with a sample label and links to the complete book added outside the artwork.

A home-and-away kit challenge

Choose an invented club name and two main colors. Draw a simple shirt outline or start with a template in the book. Before coloring the shirt, try small swatches on spare paper and check whether the colors remain distinct next to each other.

Give the home kit one dominant color. Use the second color for sleeves, a chest band, or stripes. Keep a clear area for a number and use a contrasting shade so it remains easy to read. A small, simple badge is enough to give the team an identity.

For the away kit, reverse the dominant and secondary colors while keeping one shared detail. Put the designs side by side: would someone recognize them as belonging to the same team? There is no official club palette to match, so the designer makes the final decision.

Why kit design is more than ordinary coloring

A conventional coloring page already decides most of the picture. A jersey template leaves meaningful choices open: Which two colors belong together? Do stripes, diagonals, or geometric panels suit the team? What should the number look like?

Children practice visual planning without turning the activity into a lesson. Soccer provides a familiar frame while the result remains personal.

Four easy jersey design prompts

Templates work as independent coloring pages or as a series of small challenges. A simple prompt can make the same set of shirts feel like a complete imaginary league.

• Create home and away kits for one invented club
• Use only three colors to build a recognizable pattern
• Add a shirt number, player name, and simple crest
• Invent a four-team tournament and give every team a distinct identity

What parents and gift buyers should check

For children around six and older, large areas and clear lines are often more approachable than realistic stadium scenes crowded with figures. One design per page also makes strong coloring tools easier to manage.

Check the page size, intended age, number of templates, and whether the book focuses on design or finished football scenes. Those details shape the experience more than the cover alone.

A football gift without club allegiance

A neutral kit-design book is useful when you do not know someone’s favorite club or when a child prefers inventing teams. No official color scheme is imposed, making it suitable for birthdays, travel, school breaks, or a quiet tournament-week activity.
