Thanks. That worked. I'm on an iPad.

What seems to be missing from the slides on the power point presentation of the pilot program is whether the player can continue to wear the offending item.

Being silent on that point, I would think that the existing rules still remain...must be removed to participate. However, that could certainly not be the case.

I noticed that as well - would hope that they must still be removed. It's not like an illegal uniform, which is usually a design issue and not easily correctable. With illegal player equipment, you just remove it.

[QUOTE=DrPete;978423]A recent event has led to much discussion.
First mistake: Team B has brought the wrong jerseys to their away game. Three players have illegal numbers, we will call them 6, 7 and 8. They are properly noted in the score book as 6, 7 and 8.

Second mistake: the referee failed to notice the illegal numbers (or couldn't read them) when checking the book prior to the game.

Player with jersey number 6 enters the game. Technical foul for illegal uniform.

10-5-4: The head coach shall not permit a team member to participate while wearing an illegal uniform.
PENALTY: Two free throws plus ball for division-line throw-in. The foul is charged directly to the head coach. Penalized when discovered. Only one technical foul is charged regardless of the number of offenders.


Is this still the rule where its charged directly to head coach or is this now classified as Administrative Tech and not charged directly to coach and thus no loss of the box?

Anything that's in 3-4 (and that includes numbers) is covered under this rule.

I had this several years ago. The new uniforms ordered were 1-15, inclusive. That means 6-9. The reason? "Our principal ordered them, and he's a hockey guy."

Of course, we got the typical "Can't you let it go just this one time?"

I replied, "Where are your jerseys from last year?"

Light bulb went on, problem solved.

The guys , and gals, on my local board just received an email alert that a prep school girls junior varsity team received new uniforms with illegal numbers (the supplier's fault). We've been advised to allow these illegal numbers until the situation gets straightened out.
