The above rule is best direction which you are going to get from the NFHS on this.

Thanks Nevadaref. Nice citation. I forgot about the important word "apparel"

So I should tell them that they must wear the jerseys "in the manner the manufacturer intended it to be worn", all untucked?

I wouldn't, even if it's a high-school game. To me, that's an "either/or" jersey (tucked or untucked), despite what 3-3-5 says. Hardly worth my time.

I was just kidding but thanks for the reply that I agree (but no citation) with (all tucked, or all untucked (if manufacturer intended)).

Common sense. Purpose and intent. 2-3. Why basketball officials get the big bucks.

Is there a font color for a rhetorical question like there is one for sarcasm?
