What color does a high school soccer team when playing at home?

Soccer teams each have their own specific team uniform colours. Neighbouring high schools will generally have very different colours, e.g. one school red, and one school blue. If there is a clash for one game, then the usual rule is that the visiting team change to their "second" strip, which may be any other colour. A specific league may have a different rule about who switches colours, but it is usually the visiting team so that the home fans (more of them) still sport the right colours.

Why do Manchester united wear black football socks?

Manchester United have worn red shirts white shorts and black socks since 1928. There is a myth that the black socks were a tribute to the Munich disaster in 1958 but it's not true. The kit is sometimes changed to avoid clashing with the opposing teams colours. The basic rule is that the home team plays in it's preferred kit and the away team changes anything that might make decisions for the officials difficult, sometimes that may be the shirts, the shorts, or just the socks. Most teams nowadays have at least two 'away' kits that are designed to avoid clashes with other teams colours. The match officials have the final say in what each team can wear.

What is an away jersey?

An away jersey is the uniform that the team wears in the team colours as visiting players, These jerseys are differently coloured than the colours that they wear on their home field. For example if your colours are green and white, the home jersey might be a green jersey with white lettering. An away jersey would be a white jersey with green lettering. The jersey is so designed because the visiting team might have the same colours as the home team, so the play can be distinguished between the visiting team and the home team. If both teams wear the same colours, the away jersey tells that the team with the inverted colours are the visitors.
