Naming a team

Recommended Posts

My men's league team really came together this past winter and we've decided to stick together for spring and next year. We've been skating with plain black jerseys with numbers that the rink lent us, and we're looking to name our team and get cooler jerseys.

Any ideas for a good team name? We were a bunch of older guys thrown together at the last minute to round out a league, but suprisingly we came together quickly and finished second with teams that have been together for years.

Also, where's a good place to order decent quality jerseys? Not NHL quality, but not tissue thin either.

We have this one huge dude about 6'4 240 who has a massive shot so I came up with "Ten quick jerks and a Big shot" But it won't fit on the jersey's.

When I was younger I went to some roller tournament with team called the CareBears.

Nobody took them seriously until we saw them play. God they were nasty. Apparently nobody wanted to play them previously and they changed their names to go underated.

How 'bout team "Fah Q". Some guy I knew had an office softball team or some garbage that was named that.

I tried to name my team the PDX Pineapples but noone went for that one. I always thought the bananas would be a nice flowing name but again somehow I can't get anyone else to hop on board with my ideas... alas my name ideas stay locked away for another year.

My league uses these guys:

They're really easy to deal with. We like them a lot. They've got a bunch of crests to choose from so maybe you can get a team name idea from one of those. I vote for the "Sumos". Order an extra for me if through some act of divine intervention you go with that name. I would just want one to be the phatest D-man around B) .

I've had very good luck with SP. They have done screen printing, press on numbers and sewing for me and I've been happy with each order. Turnaround is 2-3 weeks on a standard NHL style design. They have other styles that take longer as well.

Crease Monkeys is a good one. My spring league team is the Peter Northstars....blatantly stolen from a USA hockey feature on Steve Janiczack from the 80 USA hockey team.

Peter Northstars is an insanely funny name. A couple of years ago I joined a new team and unsuccessfully lobbied to have our team name be Yer Mama.

we always called this one team the "best friends" because things would get so chippy between them and us, and one spring they registered as the "Best Friends" also i live near detroit (40 mins or so) so we attach either "detroit" or "michigan" to all our team names which is kinda nice like one tourney we had ccm logos on the fronts of our jerseys and we were "detroit ccm" also theres so many leagues to pick names from: MLB, NBA, NFL, CFL, NHL, CHL, ECHL, NCAA, Euro Leagues, etc..... theres a logo server web page that has tons of logos and team names from about any league you could think of, also try russianjerseys.com, theres some cool ideasa there

That one just made my day... Should do a poll on who actually understands that. Thanks for the good chuckle.

Go with the puck pimps and the oldschool yellow and purple kings jersey. By the way I thought of that one by myself and didnt get it from the photo gallery from www.highstick.com that was mentioned in this thread.
