[quote=Anonymous]A friend of mine owns a soccer uniform supply company, and a couple of my kids have worked for him as summer jobs pressing/making up uniforms.

Basically the uniform supplier gets the backpacks, uniforms and socks in blank.  Everything that is on the uniform other than a stripe is something they press on.  So, that's numbers, league insignia,  and team insignia typically.  You could get a name pressed on if the jersey was big enough -- and some are not really big enough for a number when you are talking u8s and u9s -- but it would cost you -- probably in the ballpark of an extra $50.  Why so much?  Because if you screw it up -- they have to toss the whole jersey.  There's no repair possible.  If they are into the jersey for say $40, then throwing away a messed up jersey with team and league insignia means they would be throwing out about $80.  They probably end up scrapping 5% of the jerseys anyway and they use pretty sophisticated pressing processes.  But, if something gets a wrinkle -- out it goes.
