house colors

Team identity hues

House colors are the official colors representing an institution, school, or organization—typically two or three hues used on uniforms, flags, and merchandise.

Students wear their house colors on game day.

In British school systems and fictional settings like Harry Potter, houses within a school each have distinctive colors identifying their members: Slytherin's house colors are green and silver.
