Home Team wear Dark

I believe the T would go to the home team. They visiting team would be the one that was accommodating to not have confusion.

That ain't part of the rule.

Well it is also not apart of the rule to allow teams to wear contrasting uniforms after this situation, but that is what we would do and many would allow. The rule puts the onus on the home team in my opinion. If the home team does not wear white, they are going to be held responsible in my eyes. If the visiting team wore white or uniform to specifically contrast with the home team wearing a non-white uniform, I am not giving the home team only a T. And there is no case play that addresses the situation specifically and if anything this falls on Rule 2-3. You do not have to like it, because it is my opinion and that is what I am going to do. You can do what you like when you are in that situation.

I just need to verify that this goes to the coach.

NFHS 3-4-1c "The torso color shall be white for the home team and a contrasting dark color for the visiting team."

NFHS 10-5-4 "The head coach shall not permit a team member to participate while wearing an illegal uniform (see 3-4)."
PENALTY: (Section 5) Two free throws plus ball for division-line throw-in. The foul is charged directly to the head coach. (Art. 4) Penalized when discovered. Only one technical foul is charged regardless of the number of offenders.

That work for you?

Ohio also allows for a letter from the OHSAA allowing the variance on uniforms. With FAX machines and E-Mails, there should be no reason the AD would be caught short on this. We had this issue last year in the first game. The home team's uniforms were on "backorder" and didn't come prior to the first game. They used the previous year road jersey and asked the visitors to bring their home uni's.

The visiting coach actually asked for a T on the Home Coach. We didn't grant it as the letter was produced from the state.

Did the visitors bring their home unis? If so, it would have been fun to call the T on both, cancel the shots, and sit them both down.
