Long Sleeve undershirt
 

Girls Varsity game last night. Player for home team is wearing a white, long sleeve Underarmor type undershirt during warm ups. Looked kinda odd. I can't remember seeing it before. Quick check of the rulebook (Fed) didn't reveal any info that would make it illegal, so we let it go. I looked back at threads discussing undershirts and found one from last year about Candace Parker's in the final four, but that's NCAAW.

Anyone know of a caseplay or rule that I'm missing or are long sleeve undershirts legal for Fed play??

As long as it fits with in the rule restrictions, it's legal. There is no limit on sleeve length.

I dont have my rule book here, but I look back at a 2006-07 book and could not find anything. I know Candice Parker (NCAA) wore a long sleeved shirt during some of her games.....other may have more information.

Legal.
 

If unadorned with logos, does not have frayed edges and is a solid color that is similar to the torso of the uni --- AND the sleeves on her undershirt are the same length... LEGAL!

legal as long as the long sleeves are attached at the shoulder - illegal if just a sleeve. :D

oops - an not worn for medical reasons!! :-)

Fashion court rules for the paintiff!
 

That's exactly what I used as a basis to allow it...wasn't sure if there was an obscure case/interp that might have suggested otherwise.

I seem to recall reading an NCAAW interp that the sleeves had to end above the elbow now.

Update: From the 12/2 (or 12/4?) conference call:

(3) Undershirts. Undershirts are considered to be part of the game jersey and must be a color similar to that of the game jersey and may not extend below the elbow. As with the game jersey, no visible manufacturer’s logo is permitted on the undershirt.

food for thought
 

What if you had a player that wore this, but constantly was pushing the sleeves up during the game. Would you address it? Because by doing so now the sleeves were not the same length. Hmmm?

NFHS from last year
ART. 5 . . . Undershirts shall be similar in color to the torso of the jersey and shall be hemmed and not have frayed or ragged edges. If the undershirt has sleeves, they shall be the same length.

The NCAA is similar with the codicil that the sleves may not extend below the elbows.

or, ala Grease - The Musical
 

He keeps a pack of cigarettes under one sleeve folded back on his shoulder?

that is easy you can't use tabacco products, that is a T

Ah, but can you have tobacco products?

BTW, I believe using tobacco during a game is not only a T, but a flagrant T.

i wasn't using ref!
 

i was just holdin'...

Just a player technical - 10 throws plus the ball for division-line throw-in.

PENALTY: (Section 3) 10 free throws plus ball for division-line throw-in.

:D

:D lousy day at work for you, 10?

Never mind him, he's all excited that somebody mentioned binary.

Next we'll have Padgett complaining about metric FT's.

Yeah, something like that!

There are only 10 kinds of people in this world. Those that understand binary and those that don't.

#5 of the Oklahoma mens team wore a long-sleeve undershirt tonight in their game against Maine.

My first game this year, point guard had a long sleeve under armour undershirt. First time I had this happen. We allowed it for the reasons already given here but I asked the coach why the player wore it. He apparently has tattoo's up and down both arms which the school does not allow so to attend and play it is long sleeves.
I'm not sure how this school will handle the interp from Bob on the undershirt having to end above the elbow.

This was an issue with Lebron James during his HS years. They affixed sticky, white patches over the tattoos on his arms.

Binary makes my head hurt.
