Interesting one

EDIT: Just noticed everyone is saying "visual confine of the gymnasium". So that answers my question that they just have to leave the gym to change. If a girl wants to change out in the hallway, I just hope it doesn't end up on youtube

We are writing that because that's what the rule states. You might want to read it, ACE. 10-3-6h and 10-4-1h

You have much to learn, grasshopper.

10-3-6 and 10-4-1 regards technical fouls or ejections. We're talking about a bloody shirt or improper equipment that would require a player to change, i.e. undershirt is of a wrong color.

Yeah? That's what the penalty is for changing in the visual confines of the playing area... a technical foul. Did you read them?

Nope, he obviously didn't bother to read the citations. He's a young ACE.

He might be teachable, but the jury is still out.

The topic I was talking about was a little OT from the OP.

We were talking about whether or not the player HAS to go to the locker room to remove and replace a bloodied uniform piece or to remove an illegal equipment such as wrong-colored undergarment.

And the answer is no. The individual merely must leave "the visual confines of the playing area" because that is exactly how it is written in the rule citations which I provided for you. We are talking about same thing, you just aren't listening.

I'll help. Look at 10-3-6 paragraph h.

I don't remember exactly when, but within the last couple years I was watching the Girls Michigan High school state finals on tv. If I remember correctly, I believe a player had blood on her jersey. She heads over to the bench, gets surrounded by her team, and changes her jersey.

The camera cut away just before she pulled off her jersey.

BTW, no T was called.
