In some places, at JV levels and below, there will be an allowance for some latitude when it comes to proper numbering in certain positions. For the most part schools are able to cover uniform requirements by the rules, but on occasion, you will see that #67 has caught a pass, and you'll wonder from where the player came. I had that happen to me. I was WH in a JV game and a kid has #58 or some such thing and he's caught a pass. I didn't see where he lined up originally so there wasn't much I could say to the coach other than I knew the rules and the consequences and I missed seeing that player's location at the beginning of the play. Looked for him on the next few plays, lined up at tackle on the end. I would like to think the offense's coach didn't try and sneak one past us.
