We know the issue with the logo (however there is a document from the NFHS somewhere that says something along the lines that "the logo must resemble a baseball" for the white to be illegal.)

If you have a copy of "Referree" from last year, it was a point of emphasis and at our rules iterps it was clearly stated NO WHITE ANYWHERE ON THE GLOVE. If there are other documents that refute that, please cite reference. If there is something else about the logo please cite that as well.

Also, see 1-3-6D from this years CB.

1.3.6 SITUATION D: F1 prepares to pitch and is wearing a glove that has (a) white laces, (b) gray piping, (c) manufacturer's white logo. RULING: Illegal in (a), (b), (c). Gloves/mitts worn by pitchers shall not include the colors white or gray.
