NF Rule 10-3-1

A player shall not:

"Participate after changing his/her number without reporting it to the scorer and an official"

This is a Player T in NF rules (see also the Technical Foul Summary).

However, if I was officiating a Jr High game, I might be proactive and ask the coach if this was the player who previously had the illegal number. If the answer was yes, I'd have them tell the scorer the new number and play on as the coach had just told an official (myself) and the player) of the number change.
