blood saturated uniform

Along the same line as the "blood" incident, this occurred in one of my games over the weekend:

Girls varsity game, getting ready to start the second half. My partner is at the division line, ready to bounce the ball to the player when the player notices that the official is bleeding! He somehow cut his finger (between leaving the dressing room and hitting the floor!) and was dripping blood on the court. Call in the trainer, clean the floor and send both teams back to their benches.

I wonder what we would have had to do if he had gotten blood on his shirt?

No technical fouls were issued!

Carry a spare shirt and go change as a courtesy to the participants in the game.

While there is currently no rule that REQUIRES the official to change, it is the right thing to do.

Hmm...what if you have one of those "partners from he!!"; couldn't you use that as a way to remove them from the game?
