i'm trying to help out with a new piaa chapter. the 2008 piaa bulletin has the following case play. this seems to indicate that there is not a warning given to the first offender, instead he is restricted to the bench. the coaches apparently don't like the interp and want a warning given first.
"Coach/Player Uniform Violation—Clarification:"
SITUATION: In the second inning,
Team B player # 44 playing shortstop is discovered
wearing jewelry.
RULING: Team B #44 along with the
head coach will be restricted to the bench /
dugout area for the remainder of the game. If
this is the 2nd occurrence, then the head coach
is disqualified from the game and a DQ report
will be filed with the PIAA office.
COMMENT: When the head coach
verified in the pre-game conference that their
team is legally and properly equipped and in
compliance with the NFHS/PIAA rules, on
the first occurrence the head coach is restricted
to the bench and if it is the 2nd occurrence
they will be disqualified from the
game and a DQ report will be filed with the
PIAA office. (NFHS Rule 1-4-10 and PIAA
Modification).
