This study aims to explore the knowledge and awareness of different types of sports jersey fabrics among football players. Specifically, it seeks to evaluate how well the collegiate football team members at Universiti Teknologi MARA, Negeri Sembilan, understand the characteristics and benefits of various fabric options available for their jerseys. By investigating their familiarity with these materials, the research intends to identify gaps in knowledge that may impact their choices and performance. Ultimately, the findings will contribute to a better understanding of how fabric selection can influence athletic performance and comfort, thereby informing educational initiatives and resource allocation within the sports program.
