    I’d like to add that this was a difficult exercise. While some countries were easy, like the Netherlands, other countries varied between two different colours and it was a judgement call to select one over the other. Some countries had no consistency whatsoever.

    When it made sense to do so, I matched the hex that the country used in its flag, even if the teams wore varied shades of the colour.

    Another difficulty was finding the correct shade of a colour. Some countries specify the exact hex code for their country’s flag; other countries don’t care (e.g. Greece), and still other countries have multiple acceptable shades that can be used for their country’s flag (e.g. Ukraine).

    The rarest colour on this map can’t actually be seen unless you really zoom in: Bermuda wears pink in athletic competition (pink and blue). Bermuda selected pink because of its pink sand beaches.

  2. Nah, Canada doesn’t wear pink. (Not that there’s anything wrong with pink.)

  3. Note: Greenland for a couple years now had officially recognized teams in some sports, like handball and volleyball.

    French Guiana has a football/soccer team separate from mainland France in CONCACAF (continent-level, but not world-level).

    Great idea, love the concept.

    I understand this is complex but I think some countries should be either marked grey/na or removed.

    Just on first glance the UK really needs greater delineation between constituent countries as England/Scotland and Wales all have different colours for different sports. As well as NI for some things as well now that o think about it.

    Can’t have the Scotish rugby colours representing the English, they would hate that…both of them.

    That World Cup 2022 group of 🇨🇦🇧🇪🇲🇦🇭🇷 was red AF.
