2016, and resuming again in 2018, Notre Dame has hosted an annual off-site home football game known as the Shamrock Series. The series promotes Notre Dame's athletic and academic brand, and has brought the Fighting Irish to <a href="/wiki/San_Antonio" title="San Antonio">San Antonio</a>, <a href="/wiki/New_York_(state)" title="New York (state)">New York</a>, Greater <a href="/wiki/Washington,_D.C." title="Washington, D.C.">Washington, D.C.</a>, <a href="/wiki/Chicago" title="Chicago">Chicago</a>, <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis" title="Indianapolis">Indianapolis</a>, <a href="/wiki/Boston" title="Boston">Boston</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Dallas%E2%80%93Fort_Worth_metroplex" title="Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex">Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex</a>. Each game in the series also features a unique alternate uniform for the Notre Dame team. Notre Dame has yet to lose a game in the Shamrock Series with a record of 11-0 (including the later-vacated win over <a href="/wiki/2013_Arizona_State_Sun_Devils_football_team" title="2013 Arizona State Sun Devils football team">Arizona State</a> in the 2013 season). Prior to the 2012 season, Notre Dame Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick announced at a news conference of plans to continue the series through 2016. He confirmed after his news conference that New York is expected to fall in that rotation and then continue to be the one consistently repeating venue for Shamrock Series games. While the Shamrock Series was not held in 2017 or 2023, Notre Dame still featured a unique alternate uniform at one game each of those years, both times against <a href="/wiki/Navy_Midshipmen_football" title="Navy Midshipmen football">Navy</a> (at Notre Dame in 2017 and in <a href="/wiki/Dublin" title="Dublin">Dublin, Ireland</a> in 2023).<a href="#cite_note-393">[393]</a><a href="#cite_note-394">[394]</a> One of the unique aspects of the Shamrock Series is its inclusion of academic and other non-football activities in the area of that

The away jersey is white with navy numerals, gold outlining, and the interlocking "ND" on the sleeves. These uniforms were introduced by Lou Holtz in 1986 and retained during the tenures of Bob Davie (1997-2001) and Tyrone Willingham (2002–04). In 2005, Charlie Weis removed the interlocking "ND" from the sleeves, replacing it with the player's number, the first time the Irish had worn "TV numbers" since 1986, when they were located on the shoulders. These jerseys remained throughout Weis' tenure. When Brian Kelly succeeded Weis in 2010, the interlocking "ND" returned to the sleeves, and it has remained since. The Irish traditionally have not worn player names on their jerseys during regular season games, but they were included during the coaching tenures of Dan Devine (1975–80) and Gerry Faust (1981-85). When Notre Dame appeared in the <a href="/wiki/1970_Cotton_Bowl_Classic" title="1970 Cotton Bowl Classic">1970 Cotton Bowl Classic</a>, its first bowl game in 45 years, Ara Parseghian had player names placed on the backs of the jerseys, a tradition which was retained for four other bowl appearances under Parseghian. Holtz, Davie, Willingham and Weis (in the <a href="/wiki/2006_Fiesta_Bowl" title="2006 Fiesta Bowl">2006 Fiesta Bowl</a> and <a href="/wiki/2007_Sugar_Bowl" title="2007 Sugar Bowl">2007 Sugar Bowl</a>) did not adhere to this tradition for bowl games they coached, but it returned under Weis for the <a href="/wiki/2008_Hawaii_Bowl" title="2008 Hawaii Bowl">2008 Hawaii Bowl</a> and has been continued by Kelly and Marcus Freeman. <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Maillots_ND_d%C3%A9placement.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/Maillots_ND_d%C3%A9placement.jpg/100px-Maillots_ND_d%C3%A9placement.jpg" decoding="async" width="100" height="239" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/Maillots_ND_d%C3%A9placement.jpg/150px-Maillots_ND_d%C3%A9placement.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/Maillots_ND_d%C3%A9placement.jpg/200px-Maillots_ND_d%C3%A9placement.jpg 2x" data-file-width="214" data-file-height="511" /></a><figcaption>Former quarterback Brady Quinn in the away jersey worn from 2005-09</figcaption></figure> Notre Dame's helmets are solid gold with gray facemasks, the gold being emblematic of the University's famed "Golden Dome". Notre Dame's tradition for the team's student managers to spray-paint the team's helmets prior to each game ended in 2011 when the football equipment staff, along with Notre Dame Athletics Director Jack Swarbrick and head coach Brian Kelly outsourced the painting process to Hydro Graphics Inc. During Gerry Faust's tenure (1981–85), Notre Dame's blue jerseys switched from the traditional navy (although Notre Dame wore green jerseys full-time between the 1977 game vs. USC and the end of the <a href="/wiki/1980_Notre_Dame_Fighting_Irish_football_team" title="1980 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team">1980 season</a>) to royal blue with gold and white stripes on the sleeves (they also wore a green jersey with sleeve stripes for the 1983 game vs. USC). The navy blue jerseys returned for the <a href="/wiki/1984_Notre_Dame_Fighting_Irish_football_team" title="1984 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team">1984 season</a> (the Irish wore a redesigned white jersey during the <a href="/wiki/1983_Liberty_Bowl" title="1983 Liberty Bowl">1983 Liberty Bowl</a> without sleeve stripes and navy blue names and numbers which was carried over to 1984). No uniform numbers have been retired by Notre Dame. Upon being issued a number, each player is given a card that lists some of the more famous players who have worn that particular number. Number 3 is perhaps the most famous number in Irish football history, having been worn by Ralph Guglielmi, <a href="/wiki/George_Izo" title="George Izo">George Izo</a>, <a href="/wiki/Daryle_Lamonica" title="Daryle Lamonica">Daryle Lamonica</a>, <a href="/wiki/Coley_O%27Brien" class="mw-redirect" title="Coley O'Brien">Coley O'Brien</a>, <a href="/wiki/Joe_Montana" title="Joe Montana">Joe Montana</a>, <a href="/wiki/Michael_Floyd" title="Michael Floyd">Michael Floyd</a>, <a href="/wiki/Rick_Mirer" title="Rick Mirer">Rick Mirer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ron_Powlus" title="Ron Powlus">Ron Powlus</a>, among others.<a href="#cite_note-ND_All-Time_Roster-432">[432]</a> Number 5 is also notable, as it is the only number to be worn by one of the Four Horsemen (Elmer Layden) a Heisman Trophy Winner (<a href="/wiki/Paul_Hornung" title="Paul Hornung">Paul Hornung</a>) and a National Title winning Quarterback (<a href="/wiki/Terry_Hanratty" title="Terry Hanratty">Terry Hanratty</a>).<a href="#cite_note-ND_All-Time_Roster-432">[432]</a> Number 7 has been worn by such Irish greats as 1964 Heisman Trophy winner <a href="/wiki/John_Huarte" title="John Huarte">John Huarte</a>, 1970 Heisman runner-up <a href="/wiki/Joe_Theismann" title="Joe Theismann">Joe Theismann</a>, Steve Beuerlein, Jimmy Clausen and Jarious Jackson.<a href="#cite_note-ND_All-Time_Roster-432">[432]</a> In 2011, both Michigan and Notre Dame wore throwback uniforms in their game against each other.

Notre Dame is confirmed to have worn green as far back as 1926 against <a href="/wiki/Penn_State_Nittany_Lions_football" title="Penn State Nittany Lions football">Penn State</a>, and in 1942 they officially became an alternate color for the team.<a href="#cite_note-usatoday.com-433">[433]</a> Currently, Notre Dame reserves its green jerseys for special occasions. Sometimes on such occasions, the Irish will take the field for warmups dressed in blue, only to switch to green when they go back to the locker room before kickoff. This tradition was started by Dan Devine in 1977 before the USC game. Notre Dame has also been known to switch jerseys at halftime, as during the 1985 USC game and in the loss to <a href="/wiki/Nile_Kinnick" title="Nile Kinnick">Nile Kinnick</a>-led Iowa in 1939, although this was to help avoid confusion between their navy uniforms and Iowa's black ones. The current design of the jersey is kelly green with gold numbers and white outlining. For the 2006 Army game, Coach Charlie Weis broke out the green jerseys as a reward to his senior players and in an attempt to end the string of losses by the Irish when wearing green. Notre Dame wore throwback green jerseys in 2007 against USC in honor of the 30th anniversary of the 1977 National Championship team but lost the game 38-0.<a href="#cite_note-434">[434]</a> As of 2023, Notre Dame's record in green is 42-15-1, going back to 1975.<a href="#cite_note-usatoday.com-433">[433]</a> On at least one occasion (1992 Sugar Bowl) Notre Dame has worn an away variant of the jersey, a white jersey with green numbers. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Facilities">Facilities</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Notre_Dame_Fighting_Irish_football&action=edit&section=42" title="Edit section: Facilities">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Notre_Dame_Stadium">Notre Dame Stadium</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Notre_Dame_Fighting_Irish_football&action=edit&section=43" title="Edit section: Notre Dame Stadium">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Notredamestadiumgamedayband.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f4/Notredamestadiumgamedayband.jpg/320px-Notredamestadiumgamedayband.jpg" decoding="async" width="320" height="240" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f4/Notredamestadiumgamedayband.jpg/480px-Notredamestadiumgamedayband.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f4/Notredamestadiumgamedayband.jpg/640px-Notredamestadiumgamedayband.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1280" data-file-height="960" /></a><figcaption>Notre Dame Stadium on game day, with student section and band</figcaption></figure> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Notre_Dame_Stadium" title="Notre Dame Stadium">Notre Dame Stadium</a></div> Notre Dame Stadium is the home football stadium for the University of Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team.

Some of these are: <ul><li>The tradition of having 23.9 karat gold in the helmet paint continues, with the painting process provided by Hydro Graphics, Inc. and no longer by student managers. The gold particles that are used on the helmet were collected from the re-gilding on the Notre Dame dome in 2007. During the 2011 season, however, a new helmet paint scheme was introduced. While retaining the basic gold helmet and grey facemask look, the new gold is much more reflective than the old; there have already been several variations of this new "gold chrome" look, including brick and fish-scale texturing.<a href="#cite_note-50_yrs_of_CFB-383">[383]</a></li> <li>Formerly, prior to the start of the game, the team attended Mass in semi-formal attire at the <a href="/wiki/Basilica_of_the_Sacred_Heart,_Indiana" class="mw-redirect" title="Basilica of the Sacred Heart, Indiana">Sacred Heart Basilica</a>.
