2. Now what is a similar color is up to the referee.

3. I didn't say anything about the specific colors in your situation.

4. I would not rule black as similar to red.

5. I would rule light green okay to wear with a dark green jersey or aqua as fine for going under a blue shirt.

Understandable

Unfortunately I can't remember what I said verbatim considering everything that happened later that night. I do remember however that I didn't state any specific rule or rule #.

How can black be similar to red?

How can white be mistaken as similar to yellow?

And you didn't ask the officials why the home team wasn't assessed a T for violation of 3-4-1-c.......interesting..........

This was a C-Squad game, the only teams that currently have the required white jerseys are the V & JV squads, due to budget issues, at my alma mater.

Not all schools can be within the full regulations for all squads due to budgetary concerns.

Last year, both JV Squads were still wearing Yellow home jerseys, this year due to Varsity getting new uniforms, JV got last year's V uniforms.

Budgetary concerns are not addressed in the rulebook. Maybe you could write a letter on this subject to somebody.........or something.

Hasn't 3-4-1c only be in effect for 2-3 years?

My understanding of the rule is that it is being enforced via a slow rollout in the WIAA. 1st year was Varsity only (wasn't last year the 1st year of the white home uniforms?), the next year JV & V, with all squads the year after.

According to the NFHS the requirement for the home team to wear white uniforms is only for Varsity games. That was written when the rule was first published.

Of course, the state of Washington could do something different via their own choice.

The time that elapsed was only about 30 sec. from my asking to play continuing.

Barney Fife- put the one bullet back in your shirt pocket. While I agree it is a uniform violation, IT IS NOT YOUR JOB TO ENFORCE!

Yes, it's only been in force for a short time, but before that, schools knew it was coming for several years.

That said, the NFHS says it's only for varsity (as Nevada stated).

Around here, it's more like Nevada's area WRT undershirts. The prevailing thought is, they've had enough time to learn the rule by the time they get to high school.
