How do you say your team number?

[pfreivald]

We're commonly referred to as either

"fifteen fifty-one" and
"one five five one",

with the former more common than the latter.

It's nice to be a palindrome.

"Two Fifty-Six" or "Two Five Six".

[Woolly]

"Eighteen oh six"
Like you'd say a year.


I guess one could say it
"Eighteen ought six."
or
"Eighteen Zero Six"
or even
"Eighteen naught six"

[H.A.L.]

"Two - Four - Six - Eight"
Sometimes we have to set the MC's straight

He may be new, but he still got the team number right...

"One Twenty-Five"

I'm sure other teams do this, but when or team cheers we yell "21!!!......75!!!!" with about half of us yelling each half.

[ks68]

Thirty-Two, Sixty

[dag0620]

Ten-Seventy-One

I cringe when people say Team One-Zero-Seven-One.

[Starke]

One
Seven
Four

[jwallace15]

Sixty Eight.

I find myself calling 3 digit teams by their first digit and their last pair... Such as "one eighteen" or "five forty-eight".

I also call 4 digit teams by their first pair of digits and their last pair ("twenty-three thirty-seven" or "twelve forty-one")

[gracie.]

Twenty-three ninety-nine.
But almost every announcer goes for two three nine nine.

[Kimmeh]

My high school team was "Two six oh-four"
My previous team was "Thirty-four twenty-one."

My current team is "Fifty-fourty-six". I think. I don't remember if that's actually our number or not. And I'm too lazy to double check right now.

[SuspectedApollo]

Four fifty-one or four five one

[LilsisdeRosie]

Rosie is Eight thirty nine

[Nathan Streeter]

My typical enunciation matches what you described:

1519: Fifteen, Nineteen

For pretty much all 4-digit teams it's just broken into the two 2-digit numbers... unless the tens-place digit is a 0:
1114: Eleven, Fourteen
2056: Twenty, Fifty-Six
1902: Nineteen, o, Two
1717: Seventeen, Seventeen
3467: Thirty-four, Sixty-seven
1310: Thirteen, ten

3 digit teams are pretty much always a 1-digit number than the 2-digit number... again except if the tens-place digit is a 0:
469: Four, Sixty-Nine
987: Nine, Eighty-Seven
610: Six, Ten
330: Three, Thirty
103: One, o, Three

2 or 1 digit teams are just however you'd say their number usually:
67: Sixty-seven
25: Twenty-five
1: One

It always sounds so strange hearing someone announce our number as "One thousand, Five-hundred Nineteen..." but that really only happens when you have a non-FIRSTer announcing team numbers for a match for some reason. FIRSTers usually go the four-syllable method rather than the tongue-tying 8-syllable route!
