Sports day badges in house colours

Sports day runs on being able to tell, from across a field, who belongs to which house and which adults are staff. Badges with big first names and a bold house-colour band do both jobs without a megaphone.

Start with this template

Your list never leaves your browser.

Put the house or team in the Category column and each one gets its own colour band automatically — red for Attenborough, green for Austen, whatever your houses are. Marshals and first-aiders get their own colour, so they are findable in a crowd.

One colour per house

Categories become colour bands. Assign each house its real colour and the badge does the sorting — no more asking "which team are you?"

Readable at distance

Use the size sliders to push names larger — outdoors, a badge is read from metres away, not centimetres.

Weatherproof the badge

Laminate or use plastic sleeves — A6 and A7 badge sizes match standard holders exactly, so nothing needs trimming to fit.

Common questions

Can each house have its own colour?

Yes — every distinct value in your Category column gets a colour you control, printed as a bold band on the badge.

Can we mark staff and first aiders?

Give them their own category — Staff or First Aid — with a high-visibility colour. Anyone can find them at a glance.

What about sports day photos?

Add a Pictag marker per badge and every finish-line photo finds its athlete automatically — no facial recognition, free for UK schools.
