What is WCAG contrast?

WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) defines minimum contrast ratios between text and background to ensure readability for people with visual impairments. Level AA requires 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text. Level AAA raises the bar to 7:1 and 4.5:1 respectively.

Why sports brands need to check contrast

Poor contrast on scoreboards, websites, and printed programs makes content hard to read — especially in bright outdoor lighting. A passing WCAG AA ratio ensures your team’s colors are legible everywhere they appear.
