Gray's
 

Anybody wearing Gray's this year??? Heard they were NOT appovered:

Im guessing this has come up before?

Your question is too general. Wearing the gray for what?

Peace

Basketball officials

Level? Rules set? State?

Peace

Sure, I wear gray (grey) undies, but they used to be white!

Any level, heard Fideration rules won't allow it, and any State

With your name I would have thought you were a nothing at all type of guy.

If he was talking about the Gray Ref shirt, in PA they are not permitted. However I wear them on the small college circuit.

First of all the National Federation does not "approve" them but that does not prevent any state from setting standards for what their officials wear. The only place that has signed off on the grey shirts (if that is what you are talking about) is the JUCO level. Even at the JUCO level it would depend on the conference until post season play.

Does that answer your (very vague) question?

Peace

Yes sir thanks,

In Referee, there is a picture of officials in MN wearing them.

Around here they do not want to see them on a HS floor. We do wear them in some college leagues however. Personally, I don't like them, but I do like the games I get to work when I wear them. :D

In Montana most are using them this year, its up to the crew. Next year they are mandatory and we did start using them last year in games.

Very interesting. No more black and white stripes in Montana.

Arizona was wearing a shiny grey/silver many years ago and I'm not sure if they still do. IAABO board 134 in Maryland has been wearing gray shirts for high school games for about 3+ seasons now. Maryland JUCO has been wearing gray for at least 3 years.

Why don't we have stickies with a FAQ thread so this can be handled in one place?
