R Documentation

EPL colors

Description

Returns a named character vector of hex colors for an EPL team. Teams cover the 2026-27 Premier League season, plus every club that appeared in colorr 1.0.1. Call colorr.teams("epl") for the full list of team names.

Usage

epl.colors(
  set = c("arsenal", "aston_villa", "bournemouth", "brentford", "brighton", "burnley",
    "chelsea", "coventry_city", "crystal_palace", "everton", "fulham", "hull",
    "ipswich_town", "leeds_united", "leicester", "liverpool", "man_city", "man_united",
    "middlesbrough", "newcastle", "nottingham_forest", "southampton", "stoke_city",
    "sunderland", "swansea_city", "tottenham", "watford", "west_bromich_albion",
    "west_ham"),
  legacy = FALSE
)

Arguments

`set`	Character string naming an EPL team.
`legacy`	Logical. If `TRUE`, return the palette that shipped with colorr 1.0.1 instead of the current one, so older figures stay reproducible. Not every team has a legacy palette; teams added since 1.0.1 will throw an error.

Value

Named character vector of hex color strings.
