Jersey number solution

[ambrosia.moore]

Hello all. I'm a coach looking for some advice. Starting a new travel team and two girls are requesting the same jersey number. Both are same age and they both have played with the number since start of rec league.

How would you handle this?

I'm thinking the fairest solution is just asking BOTH girls to pick a new number, but I wanted to hear feedback from what other coaches have done in these situations. Any creative ideas on how to handle this fairly and without issues?

Flipping a coin would probably be the best solution!!
