Eye Shields

[SeanWest]

We covered this last week at our association and they are making a pretty big deal about it. Only 100% clear is permissible. We are to strictly enforce this.

Coincidentally, while we were waiting to start a Pop Warner game yesterday one of the mothers came over and asked this exact question except that her son was wearing an amber tinted shield. Same answer... illegal.

My instuctor had a case where they had told a player he had to get rid of a tinted eye shield and the player's response was that the SALESMAN had told him it was legal. I'd be wary of the rule interpretations of a guy who was trying to sell me something.
