In my area (PIAA District 11), our standards are very strict. I have to assume your district is as well. So you definately need to contact someone in your local chapter.
In NJ however, different associations have different standards. In my association, we wear any style jacket. Other's require solid blue. But for the most part, as long as we match and it's blue it's OK. Navy Blue shirt for baseball/Powder Blue shirt for softball. Either Red, White or Blue undershirt. Heather gray slacks (no charcoal gray). Plate pants for the plate and Base pants for the bases. I've seen guy's get away with Base slacks behind the plate and Plate slacks on the bases. It looks horrible... Not to mention the perception you give.
Bottom line is, "Look Sharp". Shine your shoes (who cares if they're going to get dirty anyway). If you like the way it looks and if your beer belly allows,
tuck your jacket in. And please, if your shirt is faded, buy a new one. They're not that expensive.
Lastely, you only get one shot at a first impression. So make the best of it.
Good Luck!
