Illegal number and penalty question?
 

I normally can find this stuff quickly but for some reason I cannot.

There was a game recently that was brought to my attention where this took place.

A team had a number 7 and 8 and they played and then noticed. Is this a technical foul if they were playing with an illegal number? Or is this a situation where they just do not play with those illegal numbers? BTW, when noticed the players were removed from the game and did not play.

I need a rules reference.

10-5-4 The head coach shall not permit a team member to participate while wearing an illegal uniform (see 3-4).

Penalty: Penalized when discovered. Only one technical foul is charged regardless of the number of offenders.

Illegal uniform - direct tech on head coach

10-5
ART. 4

The head coach shall not permit a team member to participate while wearing an illegal uniform (see 3-4).

At a HS (or college) game!? I find that very odd. Those of us in NE Illinois would appreciate some details.

HS game.

What team came with illegal jerseys? And, why wasn't it caught earlier in the season?

I smell some "suspensions". ;)

It was just numbers, not illegal jersey necessarily. And I am not telling, they lost. ;)

It amazes me the stuff that slides by all year. I was doing a game the other night at a AA school (highest in MT) and there was only a coaches box on the visitor side. I called the pool admin so they could call the state and I was told, no point in calling this late. :eek:

bob jenkins is a bad boy.

Here we go. :)

Unless he was born and raised on the south side of Chicago and had relatives who at one time worked for Al Capone and the mob like I did, he can't be too bad. :cool:

What if he was related to Leroy Brown?

I had a game at a Christmas ( I mean Holiday, no wait, winter ) tourney, A girl had number 03. Since it was a Christmas ( I mean Holiday, no wait Winter ) Tourney, I passed on the T but I wondered if she got any all year long during the season.

My interpreter followed my game and asked why I didn't call the T. I explain, the following night, he had a player with number on the back, but not on the front. He too passed on the T for the uniform....
