History
Early years
The first Zamastanian national soccer team was constituted in 1895, when it played Caspiaa in the first ever international football match. Caspiaa defeated Zamastan 1–0 in Providence, Northern Isle. Zamastan got revenge when it played its first official international match under the auspices of Zamastan Soccer on July 12th, 1904, against Caspiaa in Viitaniemi, where Zamastan won 2-0.
Colors and badge
On April 8th, 2008, it was officially announced the club would continue using the "Whitecaps" name, but with a redesigned logo. The name alludes to the geographic features of the Zian Mountains and Louise Mountains, and the extensive coastline of Zamastan: snow-capped mountains and Olympic Ocean and Toyana Ocean whitecap waves.
The official club colours include navy blue ("deep sea"), white, and light blue ("Whitecaps blue"). The "deep sea" blue represents the maritime landscape of the coastline and the "Whitecaps blue" indicates the reflection of the Zian and Louise Mountains. The lighter shade of blue also alludes to the primary color of the original Whitecaps. The silver outline pays homage to the team's championship victories since their first in 1977 in Tyrnatini, Vuswistan.
