A Blue and White Team Player is a minifigure from the Soccer/Football theme. A total of eleven minifigures are on this team.
Description[edit | edit source]
All of the players on this team have a white torso piece with yellow hands. The torso piece has printing on both sides. On the front, a yellow neck area is present, with a blue v-shaped neckline for the jersey. In the centre of the piece is the player's number in white and outlined in blue. Underneath the number is a thick, wide v-shaped line in blue, and the area underneath this line features a blue shading pattern, which is darker at the bottom of the piece and gets lighter on the way up. The back of this piece features the same shading pattern at the bottom, and also has the player's number again outlined in blue, but is much larger than it is on the front. All players have yellow heads with standard male hairpieces, but with differing hair colour and printing patterns.

Background[edit | edit source]
The Blue and White team were a team seen regularly practicing their skills using a wide range of equipment. They also commonly faced off against members of the Red and White team. The Red Goalkeeper commonly played for their side, although this goalkeeper was also seen playing for the Red and Black team when they faced off against the French National Team. It appears that during 2003, the team underwent a change to their uniform, with the lower half of their uniform changing from blue to green and black.
