Sleeve Question

[muxbule]

In these parts they are allowed only if medically necessary but does not require anything from a doctor just a question to the player or head coach.
No color requirements are given in the book.

Here in NC, we just received about a month ago the interpretation that we are to assume these are for medical purposes if worn, and are not to ask the player and/or coach.

But as others have stated, to be legal it must be worn for a medical purpose.

In Oregon, they are required to have documentation in order to wear the sleeve.

That's what happens here as well, although I've heard different stories from varsity refs regarding what we're required to do to verify. Some just assume it's for medical reasons, others will ask and accept the answer, and one stated she would require a doctor's note.

Upon what does she base that requirement?
