We have a mandate for the 2008 season that if the armbands (or any illegal equipment) appear during the game we send them kid out for one play, penalize the team with a 5-yard equipment violation and inform the head coach of the situation. If the same equipment violation occurs again, that kid is ejected and the head coach is given a UC penalty.

Please tell me how you cam justify ejecting a player for wearing an armband. I don't seem to find that in my rule book. Is that a state association interpretation?
