Youth soccer club goalkeeper jerseys at Bear Grips Pro Shops come in the high-contrast colors US Soccer rules require (neon yellow, neon green, neon orange) and ship with name and number on the back, just like the field-player kit. The club store carries the keeper jersey alongside the home and away match jerseys, so each goalkeeper family buys one shirt at the right size, with no minimum and no inventory.
Goalkeeper Jersey Color Rules in US Youth Soccer
Most US Soccer-sanctioned youth leagues require the goalkeeper to wear a jersey color that contrasts clearly with both teams on the field, both teams’ keepers, and the referee. In practice, that means the keeper kit needs to be a high-visibility color that no field-player jersey on either team uses.
- Neon yellow. The most common keeper color in US youth soccer. Works against almost any field-player palette.
- Neon green. The second most common. Pairs well against red, blue, and white club kits.
- Neon orange or safety orange. Used when both teams’ field kits are yellow or green.
- Light blue or grey. A backup option for clubs running yellow or green field kits.
A club that runs both neon yellow and neon orange keeper jerseys covers virtually every league-day color conflict without buying replacement kits mid-season.

Long Sleeve Goalkeeper Shirts for Cold and Turf
Goalkeepers dive, slide, and hit the ground more than any field player. On cold-weather grass and indoor turf, long-sleeve keeper jerseys protect the arms from abrasion and keep the elbows warm enough to react. Most clubs stock both short-sleeve and long-sleeve keeper jerseys in the same neon colors so the family picks the right one for the season.
Spring and fall outdoor: short-sleeve. Winter indoor turf: long-sleeve. Many keepers buy both for the year.
Number and Name on Youth Goalkeeper Jerseys
The keeper kit follows the same name-and-number layout as the field kit. Player number prints large (8 to 10 inches) on the back, with the player name in a smaller arc above. Most goalkeepers wear number 1, 12, or 30, but some clubs let the keeper pick their own number. The club crest sits on the front chest, 3.5 to 4 inches wide.
Pro Shops lets each family enter the player name and number at checkout so the keeper jersey ships personalized. The club director does not need to track keeper numbers separately from the field roster.
Goalkeeper Apparel Items Pro Shops Does Not Cover
Pro Shops handles printed apparel: jerseys, shorts, hoodies, warmups, and hats. Bear Grips does not manufacture goalkeeper gloves, padded goalie shorts, padded goalkeeper jerseys with built-in elbow and rib padding, or goalkeeper pants. For padded keeper-specific gear, families source from goalkeeper-specific suppliers. The club store covers everything else: the jersey, the warmup, the hoodie, the practice top, and the merchandise.
