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."

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). |
Thanks everyone!

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! |

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. |

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. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

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.
