Is it a problem to wear a patched shirt in the non-VHSL games?

I use magnets, as do quite a few of the officials in our association. The ones I have are quite strong - they have two nickel plated rare earth button magnets mounted to a plastic bar, with a matching 1.25"x.375" plate that has double sided tape for attaching to the patch. I use two per patch. The downside is that unless someone is selling them locally, you have to buy them in quantity (like 50-100) from a wholesaler.

If you go the craft store route, make sure the magnets are either nickel plated or plastic coated, otherwise reaction with perspiration may cause staining of your shirt.
