Blood everywhere...
 
Player gets a blood nose and he leaks one big spot about the size of a dime on his jersey.

You send him out and it dries. He wants to come back in. If the blood is dried is it ok? Or must he change shirts?

Blood must be cleaned, not just dry.

I think HS is "any amount of blood on the uniform." College is "saturated, as determined by the trainer."

Correct.

So in the OP, if this is a college game, the team member can probably return to the game shortly.

HS = no (though if a new jersey can be found and he changes it out away from the visual confines, the book can be changed without penalty to allow him to return to the game).

Can't this blood be disinfected with "the spray"?
3-3-7 says the blood just has to be cleaned...
There is no need to have the jersey changed - just cleaned. Once the jersey is properly disinfected with that spray - all is good!

I think you quoted me when you meant to quote crosscountry. He's the one who indicated the jersey must be changed and didn't mention cleaning it.

In any event, sometimes the spray is sufficient to clean the blood; sometimes it isn't.

3-3-7 says the blood needs to be "appropriately cleaned".
If a player returns with a pink-reddish smudge and the trainer says its been disinfected/appropriately cleaned... I think we simply play on.

A player who is bleeding, has an open wound, has any amount of
blood on his/her uniform, or has blood on his/her person, shall be directed to
leave the game until the bleeding is stopped, the wound is covered, the uniform
and/or body is appropriately cleaned, and/or the uniform is changed before
returning to competition, unless a time-out is requested by, and granted to,
his/her team and the situation can be corrected by the end of the time-out.

Yup: uniform need only be "appropriately cleaned".
Uniform doesn't have to be changed.
Q. What does "appropriately cleaned" mean?
If a trainer or doctor says the uniform is disinfected - we play on.

If you mean more like a stain than the actual body fluid, I agree. Wash, spray with something (bleach would probably be OK -- microbiologists chime in), and you're good to go.

Hydrogen peroxide should be able to clean up any fresh blood to where you cannot tell there wasnt any blood on the uniform. I use it all the time for fresh blood and its really effective.
