school logos on team jersey??
 

I see rules that allow a mascot on the pants, compression shorts, headbands, sweatbands. And, I see a rule that specifically prohibits manufacturers logos on jerseys.

I don't see a rule that allows mascots on the jersey but I don't see the rule that specifically prohibits them, either.

Are school mascots allowed on the jersey?

Not on the torso. Single color only, plus name, and number.

Do you mean a picture of the mascot, or the mascot itself? :eek:

That would certainly put some teams at a disadvantage.

BillyMac,

Thanks for the attachment but it still does not answer the question - is the team mascot allowed anywhere on the jersey including on the back/above the shoulder/inserts/seams?

Must be above the neckline on the front, can be in the side insert and on the back it must be above what would be the neckline continued around, approx.

That is how I understand the PDF

Hey. I did the best I could. Do I look like a member of the fashion police?

Depends on the type of mascot, I suppose.

My HS team mascot was a Trojan. We wore them, but not on our uniform. And it was usually well after the game. ;)

Mine was a Dragon. Not sure, I'd want to cart one of those around, unless they could be trained to clear the lane.

Be Prepared ...
 

Why not during the game? Obviously, you were never a Boy Scout.

We were the Spartans. Umm ... I can't think of anything funny to post. "Never mind".

Sohl,

could you send me to the rule that allows this? what is the "PDF"

thanks

Check the second post in this thread. There is a link to the NFHS pdf.

Sohl,

Thanks. There has to be something in the PDF that leads you to believe that mascots can be worn on the jersey. But, I still don't see where it allows team mascots even in the unrestricted neckline area. Am I missing something?

"Eureka!" (Greek: meaning "I have found it!"). Finally. More detailed than the previous file, but still may not answer the original question. Still a good file worth looking at:

NFHS uniform presentation

Be careful. This is over a year old, before any 2008-09 revisions.

BillyMac,

This presentation was very very good. The best that I've seen but you are right in that it didn't specifically address mascots???

thanks again

So Mascots Can Go There ???
 

Good research. It took you all day, but you came up with an answer. I'm sure that if you're wrong, another Forum member will correct you. I hopem that you feel a sense of accomplishment. Sorry I couldn't help. This was a topic I would normally be willing to sink my teeth into. I had other things to work on. Like my scrimmage schedule, and then, earlier this evening, my game schedule. Keep up the good work.

Not sure if you are just being sarcastic!?!?!?!

Didn't take me all day, took me all of 3 mins. I already have a game schedule through 12-13 as that is all my assignor has assigned thus far and we are already finished with scrimmages.

If I'm wrong, I hope that another forum member corrects me. This is just the way that I interpret the pdf.

Good Work, Seriously ...
 

No. I was serious. Now that I've checked the posts, I see that you've been on the situation since Friday, so I underestimated the level of your persistence.

I'm Serious, Really ...
 

The thread, and your participation in it, have been very useful. I'm sorry that I couldn't participate more, other than offering two PDF files from the NFHS. I don't use Smilies. Never have. Don't know how. Don't want to get started. But, I will admit, I almost used one for the first time here. At least now, I understand why some many members use them. Confucius may have said, "One picture is worth a thousand words". Maybe he was right. And your post did clear this up, note that no one had disagreed with you.

I apologize for my misunderstanding. I hope you understand with the way some posters respond to other posters that it is sometimes difficult to decode if someone is genuine or if they are trying to demean someone with their diatribe. I am happy that I could have been of help to you and I hope that if I am wrong that someone will correct me.
