Socks

I had a game tonight where the whole entire girls team had yellow socks (these socks were the type baseball players wear). The jersey color was white and I couldn't find any rule on this directly. Can you all help me?

No rule regarding socks. They can be any color.

There is only one rule which could possibly apply to the color of the socks.

RULE 3, SECTION 5 TEAM MEMBER'S EQUIPMENT, APPAREL
ART. 1 . . . The referee shall not permit any team member to wear equipment or apparel which, in his/her judgment, is dangerous or confusing to other players or is not appropriate.


Now unless the referee believes that yellow socks are dangerous, confusing, or not appropriate, they are legal.

It's now official.

Your mind is completely gone. You've entered the Zone.

Could be a good movie though-- "The Attack Of The Killer Socks".

Bleach might help.
