Just got the "official memo" from the state association.

And our local association is also talking about changing our jackets in the near future - sigh. Guess that's the price you have to pay for "the big time."

I worked a Regional game tonight with our board Secretary and our association is not going to the VHSL jacket. We will continue to wear one with our Association logo.

Grunewar was referring to discussions about redesigning that logo and thus making new jackets necessary.

As for the new shirt- I don't see what's so ugly about it. I prefer the black and grey NBA style shirt but don't see how the rendering on the VHSL website is that much different from the NCAA side panel shirts.

Maybe the more infrequent, wider stripes won't be as slimming for me?!

I'm amused at these threads only because I live in a state where we'll be wearing the black and white stripes 20 years after everyone else has moved on to something else. I'm surprised we're not still wearing Byron collars (and I still see the occasional freshman / JV ref wearing one, BTW).

For example, we *still* are forbidden to wear black shirts in baseball and it took the entire state of officials ignoring the guy in charge before he relented and allowed black pants for every football game.

Lol. Remember I've met you. You have no need for "slimming" features.

But I do.

Just saw the new shirt in person today...I actually like it better then the current stripes. Wider stripes look better IMO then what is then the current width of the stripes. The side panel is not nearly as big as shown in the picture.
