But that's not how we enforce it, is it? If the new varsity jerseys have white piping on the seams, but one kid is wearing last year's jersey without the white piping, do we penalize? I don't think so; at least, I'm sure I wouldn't.

I think BITS's comment is most appropriate: the "uniform" is simply a distinctive outfit.
I think they should be very similar. The presence of a trim color or not is insignificant. The main color of the shirt is significant. The shades should be close. If one team is in white and the other royal blue, I don't think a red jersey would be adequate but a navy blue or other similar blue would be.
