Jewelry

[APG]

Under no circumstances can you give a T solely for wearing jewelry. I'm not quite sure where that myth started...maybe it was the rule formerly?

[Nevadaref]

No penalty. 3.5 Sit B and 3.5.7 Sit A.

3.5 SITUATION B:

The officials are on the court prior to the game observing the
team warm-ups. One official notices that a member of Team A is wearing a decorative
necklace. RULING: The official should inform the team member to remove
the jewelry immediately. Upon compliance, the team member may continue to

warm up with his or her teammates and may start the game without penalty.

3.5.7 SITUATION A:

Substitute A6 is beckoned and enters the court to replace
A1. A6 is wearing: (a) compression shorts below the game pants which extend
below the knees; (b) cut-off jeans extending below the game pants; or (c) jewelry.

RULING:

The items in (a), (b) and (c) are illegal and A6 will not be allowed to
participate while wearing the items. No penalty is involved. A6 simply cannot
participate until the illegal items are removed. (3-5-8)
