While players own a singlet, no player owns their singlet number.
Through the seasons players may be required to change their singlet number to avoid clashes within their teams.
In 2015 the club introduced a new singlet number allocation policy, which greatly reduced the number of singlet number clashes.
Under the system:
New players are allocated a number based on their date of birth and availability of numbers in the age group.
Clashes
If your team has a singlet number clash, you must advise the club at ikbc@dev.ivanhoeknights.org and a swap will be arranged.
Neither players or their parents/guardians are to organise singlet number swaps amongst themselves before checking with the club.
