Had a sitch this morning where I thought of the wording, "These kids have enough to deal with." 6th grade boys rec ball. Each team is a mixture of very talented with, uh, let's say, less experienced. Every kid must, by league rule, play at least one half. Before the game started, I told one player that he needed to take off his white T-shirt (being worn under a dark green jersey).

Why make him take off the T-shirt? That is unless his league has specific rules on dress.
On Saturdays I do rec games for my association and the approach we all take is call the game not the little nits. The kids are there to have fun so why should one care what they have on? For my own rec league, which I do on Sundays, the only dress rule we have is that the kid must wear a jersey and even that rule can be waved by the senior official of the game.
Please, please don't take this as an attack on you but these are kids, just kids in a rec league not some HS game covered by the NFHS.
