This is how we've been instructed too.

Had a BJV on Tues night, third time I've asked the same player in the last few weeks/months about his sleeve. He always takes it off. Ya think by now he'd learn the right answer to continue to wear it....... but, on the bright side, at least he's honest. :)

...what about long sleeve shirts?

Had a boys V game with a player wearing a long sleeve t-shirt under his uniform. The under shirt was the same color as jersey...just long sleeved.

We allowed it.

I seem to remember this discussion before...even long pants would be OK if I remember correctly....as would a skirt be OK.

Elbow Pads?
 
My son wears one every game for Varsity Games at the High School level and so did his older brother. We have a family traditioin of bone chips in the elbow area. It is black compression material with a soft pad. Both of them have never been questioned about it other than an official will come over and ask if they can feel the pad to make sure it is soft. They have played games in IL, TN, KT, MS, AR, AL and never had a problem with HS varsity officials.

Rule 4.1.5 says:

Undershirts shall be a single solid color similar 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. A visible manufacturer's logo/trademark/reference is not permitted on the undershirt.

It does not say anything about restricted length of sleeves, so yes, it is legal.

As for pants, they are legal as well. Players are allowed to wear shorts, skirts or pants.

You picqued my interest with your subject line.

Here in my little corner of the Provisions State, if a player is in the warmup line wearing tape on an earlobe, we have been told to ask the player if there is a earring under the tape. If he, or she, replies, "Yes", then we are to inform them that they will not be allowed to play or warmup, with earrings. On the other hand, if the player replies, "No", then we have been told to end the discussion right then and there, and he, or she, continues to warmup, and plays in the game.
that is all..
