There is one head captain, and two assistant captains. Each team typically has one captain and two alternate captains. Some organizations choose to rotate captains. For example, when Chris Drury and Daniel Briere were members of the Buffalo Sabres, they took turns wearing the "C" on their sweaters. During the 2007-08 season, the Sabres choose one player each month to be the team's captain of that month. Also, some teams may elect to have more than two alternate captains. For the 2007-08 season, the Carolina Hurricanes' Glen Wesley and Cory Stillman will wear the "A" on their jerseys at home games, while Eric Staal and Ray Whitney will be the alternate captains on the road.

Most teams have 3-5 captains, although some have more. For example, the Tennessee Titans had 4 captains in 2011. QB Matt Hasselbeck and FB Armand Hall on Offense, CB Cortland Finnegan on Defense, and reserve LB Tim Shaw on Special Teams.

Also (although some teams don't choose to partake) there is a system for captains with a badge with a "C" on their uniform with a star system with a star filled in for each consectutive season as a teams captain, and after 4 seasons, all four stars and the "C" which were originally white, are all colored gold.

Most of the time teams pick captains. For example the Boston Red Sox captain is their catcher, Jason Varitek.
