This was just an observation on my part. While I am in the stands, I would never volunteer my knowledge onto another person. I guess that if I officiate this team, then I will have to be the one to tell them they can not wear 'Green' headbands with their 'White' jerseys. Nor can they wear the number on the head band if the other requirements abide by the rules.
I would make this observation available to the referee. Let him/her address the coach.

Green headbands are a bit more of a bigger dealer.
All I'm saying is do you think you need to be going to other officials and letting them know what they are missing? Why/when did this become your responsibility?

According to the NFHS 2009-2010 Basketball Uniform Information, the legal numbers are: 00, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, & 55. Also that a team can't have a 0 & a 00.

Why aren't numbers 6,7, 8, & 9 allowed, either a standalone number, a beginning numer, or an ending number?

Because most of us only have five digits per hand.

You are correct. It is not my responsibility. I am not a State observer. It is a delicate path to walk.
Watch out. You may be officiating a game when this situation occurs. They just started wearing these head bands.

Zoochy - Not that you asked me or anything, but I've found that addressing my concerns on a game I'm not working, in the form of a question (in a please help me out sorta way) rarley hurts.

There are only 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.
