I might even suggest being a little more careful in the instructions. We don't really have the authority to tell them to remove anything. All we can tell them is they can't play with the offending undergarments. We might want to mention that they can't play with that shirt, but they also can't change it here. This way, the coach has the option of telling the player, "You idiot, I to take that off! Just for that, sit on the bench the rest of the game!". And you don't get in possible trouble for telling them to do something against the rules.

I don't say anything to the players. Instead I'll tell the coach "the white T-shirts aren't legal & have to be removed if they want to play". Now it's the coach's responsibility to tell his players. I also tell the coach to remind them not to do it in the gym. IMHO this is good preventive officiating. Now if they go ahead & do it anyway, whack away - they have absolutely no excuse.
