shirts and skins
Casual team division
Shirts and skins is a method of distinguishing teams in informal sports, especially basketball, where one team keeps their shirts on and the other plays bare-chested: We played shirts and skins at the park until dark.
The practice is mostly confined to male players in casual pickup games.
