Nickname--since the end of the 1960's the National Team has been known as "The Bees", a period when the team's uniforms consisted of alternating black and gold hoops.
Previous to that time and subsequently through periods in the 1980's and 90's, the team was usually referred to by the county's national animal, the Elks; the women's National Team were always 'Lady Elks' until the advent of mixed gender play, which was revived during the Jenna Raven Cup and there are still numerous mentions of Elks in the supporters song “We are the Gold & Black”, which currently has close to 175 stanzas.
Colors--Black & Gold (while they are just 2 of the 5 main colors on the flag of Baker Park--Blue, Red and White are the others--black & gold have been closely associated in the nation's consciousness as representative of the country since its founding.)

The Commonwealth National Team approach the 68th AOCAF at a critical juncture in the history of mixed gender soccer in Baker Park; having failed to make the knockout stage in three of the last four World Cups in addition to the first time in the last six regionals not making the quarterfinal at the last edition, Manager Jen Prescott will be looking to the next generation of Development Charter products to return the BPNT to medal contention in another even numbered Atlantian Oceania tournament.
The quest for a third title in the Toughest Tournament in the Multiverse Not called the World Cup™ will be partly helped by the fact that Group E will be hosted in Baker Park, at three venues within the Metro Belle Haven area.
The Bees will have their opener against Heller Turm at the BBP Stadium before facing Crystal Empire at the Salisbury City Stadium on matchday 2, with the remaining three fixtures--Jabal Akhdar, Milchama, and Gyatso-kai--all scheduled for Sportsmen's Park.
The last competition for the NT--the inaugural Tea Cup--was focused on uncapped players and those with fewer than five NT appearances (known within the squad as "cappies" and "bantams", respectively) of which nearly a third of this group is comprised of.
