Glasses
I remember getting taught that glasses are part of the head and hitting a players glasses was a foul. Typically shooting and they only make contact with the glasses that we consider it part of the head and a foul.
Looking for reference and struggling. Looking for a 2nd reference if glasses come off accidently we are to use an official time out and stop the game. Looking for rule reference too. Thanks for all you do helping us stay on top of our games. |
I'm not sure you'll find anything official.

It seems to me that the past interps archive is the best source for such a ruling. I recall one situation from about 16 years ago noting that a player is out of bounds if only his hair touches out. |
