Aston Villa Football Shirts

The club plays their football in the colours of a claret shirt, which has sky blue sleeves, and a pair of white shorts. When Aston Villa first became a professional team they used to generally play in plain shirts, often grey, white or with a shade of blue. Nowadays the club play in a very different kit, with even the addition of a new crest design which was unveiled on the 2nd of May in 2007 in time for what was then to be the coming 07-08 football season. The team’s motto did however remain the same, which reads as ‘Prepared’. The club have announced that for the 2008-09 Premiership season that they will not be having commercial sponsorship, instead they will be wearing the logos of registered charity Acorns Children’s Hospice and will be the first English club to have ever done this.
