Hi.. The gang,

I officiated a game last night, senior girls, and I noticed that one team had tape on their jersey's. Is this legal ? Well for what I can see the tape was a fashion statement to keep their shoulder seams together. I was just wondering if their was a rule on this. Now I can see if the jersey was too big that tape would keep the jersey from falling off thier shoulders but this was not the case. I wasn't sure on the ruling so I let them play but should I had them remove the tape from the jerseys?

No. There's nothing that forbids them from taping the jersey in this manner.

The location to reference this issue is (NFHS) Rule 3 -Section 4 & 5.

As long as it does not interfere with with the visibility of the players' numbers or constitute a safety concern, I will let them play.
