"Badges? We Don't Need No Stinking Badges" …

Many of us occasionally complain that we don't like being the Fashion Police. Well, in some cases, there are valid reasons for some of the Fashion Police rules. I just got back from a girls scrimmage, three girls teams, all wearing reversible scrimmage vests, almost all wearing a T-shirt under their scrimmage vests, almost all white T-shirts, although there were several other colors thrown in. I'm the trail, ball goes out of bounds off the defense on my sideline. I sound my whistle, point in the correct direction, and state "White". But it wasn't white ball. It was blue ball. Why did I screw up? Because we had three teams, all with a choice of two color reversible scrimmage vests, playing alternating periods, all with mostly white T-shirts. The closest girl to me for the team that was supposed to get the ball was wearing a blue scrimmage vest, but there was a lot of white showing from underneath, two sleeves, and quite a bit of white showing from under the scoop top of the vest. I noticed that I really had to pay close attention to who was on offense, and who was on defense. Who was setting screens, and who was in the paint too long? Who was pushing who while battling for rebounds? This game is a little easier to officiate when the players are wearing the correct color undershirts. Now, as to headbands and wristbands, well, that's a whole different story ... |
