I can't think of a single thing that will really wash out (even stuff that says it is washable doesn't wash out completely). For that reason I would use chalk, but i would do a test sample to make sure it washes off. But then I would also have some extra jerseys laying around.
No tape is normal- it changes the placement of the number (so it's not standard and centered).
FFS it's kids soccer. They can deal with a little asymmetry. It's insane how seriously some kids sports teams take themselves. I wonder what we (as a society) are teaching kids by investing so much time, money, energy and hassle into something so trivial.
Can you print out a number on a white paper background and just pin it on (as if they were competing in a running race)?
she's talking NFHS rules, these are high school/varsity level rules. I don't have any skin in the game (literally), we dropped out of the group kids sports racket a long time ago, I'm just familiar with the rules and am trying to help people who aren't understand where they come from.

Thanks This helps me have perspective.
I still think off center shouldn't be a make it or break it thing (unlike safety rules or things to prevent abuse/mistreatment - which is where I think sports leagues have been remiss. Kids can head balls and get life long brain trauma, but an off center "1" is verboten? Who is making these rules?)

I personally interpret this stuff as being anti-cheating/ref call confusion prevention, because the stakes are just higher at that level (not arguing that they should be, just that they are for some families)- but I know there may be other things that are outside my scope.
