Apparel?

Can anyone give me a list of what players cannot wear during a game (nfhs)? For example, can girls wear earrings?

Thanks,

I'm sure someone will post the rule. But the answer to your final query is no. Earrings are not allowed (boys or girls). Jewelry is not allowed, period.

The answer to the follow up question is also no. They may not tape over the jewelry. It must be removed in order for them to play.

There are a lot of things they cannot wear. Could you be a little more specific with what you are looking for?

Honestly there are so many things I do not know that anyone will be able to list everything.

Peace

Spiked motorcycle helmets is about all that comes to mind right now. Perhaps others can come up with one or two other things.

They cannot wear Barry Manilow T-shirts. And not just during games.

My main concern was with earrings. In the past, someone has told me that they can put tape over their earrings and play.

Thanks

How about a list of what they CAN wear?!?

1. Uniform,shoes,socks basically no limitation
2. Compression shorts not to extend below uniform shorts.
3. Undershirt same color as primary color of jersey if visible with no unhemmed sleeves or sleeves of unequal length.
4. Wristbands/headband, all same color as primary color of jersey or white and all team members same.
5. Brace/support worn for medical reasons with the limitation that it not be made of any hard plastic or metal and/or that it not be deemed dangerous by the official.
6. Hair control device again not made of any hard plastic or metal.
7. Medical alert device taped to chest
8. Other items (pants under shorts, skirts) for religious reasons

That was off the top of my head, am I missing anything??

No rubber bands, "LIVESTRONG" bands, or any of the other cause celeb bands that are hot that month...basically nothing that doesn't assist in the playing of basketball...that is why we're here right?

Basically anything that can hurt another player would not be allowed. That includes earrings, bobby pins, barrets, any hard hair clip, long finger nails, etc.

Oh I have no doubt that you WERE in fact told that probably by a registered/certified official...this is the same official that I want to strangle every time a coach goes "BUT THE LAST REF LET HER WEAR THEM!" That damn Last Ref sure makes my life difficult...

No they cannot wear earrings with or without tape. The only penalty is they cannot play until they remove them.

Peace

a. A guard, cast or brace made of hard and unyielding leather, plaster, pliable (soft) plastic, metal or any other hard substance may not be worn on the elbow, hand, finger, wrist or forearm; even though covered with soft padding.
b. Hard and unyielding items (guards, casts, braces, etc.) on the upper arm or shoulder must be padded.
c. Knee and ankle braces are permitted but all exposed hinges must be covered. Most over-sleeves recommended by manufacturers are acceptable. These braces may be padded or unpadded.
d. Must be worn for medical reasons.

Careful: they CAN wear them, but if so they may not participate.
