UEFA Allow Many Different Kinds of Team Identifications

UEFA do allow teams to have several different types of identification on playing attire, including Region Flags, City Coat of Arms, Team Logos, Team Slogans, Team Nicknames, and Team Symbols.

Are the Three Little Birds a 'Team Symbol' of Ajax?

The question for UEFA is if the Three Little Birds are a 'Team Symbol' or not. Teams are allowed to display Team Symbols on their kits.

The connection between the Three Little Thirds and Ajax started in 2008 when the stadium's DJ played the song for the first time. It is now played at every Ajax home match.

City coats of arms are allowed on kits
