2005-05 RULE CHANGES
3-4-6 Note Beginning in 2007-08, the home team will be required to wear white jerseys and the visiting team dark jerseys.

2007-08 MAJOR EDITORIAL CHANGES
3-4-6b Implementation date reached requiring the home team to wear white jerseys. The note will be removed and a new sub-article will be added stating this requirement.

The NFHS rule book lists some exceptions for sub-varsity (i.e 5-5-1 & 5-5-3), however, uniforms are not one of them, and we are expected to enforce the same NFHS rules at both JV and Varsity levels unless the VHSL issues a directive otherwise.

Does this answer your question?
