Straw Hat Crew

The Straw Hat Crew and Friends of One Piece, typically shortened to the Straw Hat Crew, is a world football club competing in the Fiore Football League. As the name suggests, the Straw Hats of One Piece founded this club. Captain Jack Sparrow would then buy the club, appointing Juande Ramos's long time assistant Muniz as manager. Keeping in line with the pirate theme, other pirates play for the club. Real life players at the club hail from England, New Zealand, Cape Verde and Turkey... wait, Turkey? Blame it on Usopp...

Club Insignia
The club logo is the Straw Hat Pirates Jolly Roger. On the home kit, which shares the same palette as the Jolly Roger, the logo comes with a black mast. All Straw Hats players, including real life players, also have an "X" tattooed on their forearms, as per the Straw Hat recruitment rules.

Trivia

 * As noted above, the Straw Hats have a unique numbering system. The 9 core members of the Pirates inherit the jerseys corresponding to their numbers, thus Luffy, the captain is #1, and the vice-captain (first mate) Zoro #2. Critics state that this system affects opponent concentration, but players like Kagura Mikazuchi, Rio Ferdinand and Rickie Lambert have played down such concerns.
